Trivia Game #27 - Test Run

[hoosier]

Since this is my first time serving as moderator of the game, I'm just a bit concerned that I might mess up the first time I try to edit and score everybody's responses.

Therefore, I'm starting this thread just to give myself some practice before I "go live" with the official game. That way, if I make any mistakes, I can learn from them, and hopefully not repeat them once the real game starts.

Not everyone has to respond to this thread, but I hope at least a couple players will do so.

I'm going to post two test questions. Please post responses with a correct answer to one question (I don't care which one) and an incorrect answer to the other one.

The first questions for the official game will appear in a thread titled "Trivia Game #27 - Week 1." I'll start that thread and post those questions a little later on today.

The test questions are:

1. Who was President of the United States of America in 1862?

2. Who was President of the Confederate States of America in 1862?

Thanks to everyone who responded. I was just trying to make sure that I could figure out (A) how to look at everyone's posts, (B) how to apply the strikethrough effect to indicate wrong answers, and (C) how to get the posts to appear on the board after they were corrected.

Now that I've done what I wanted to with this thread, I'm going to close it down (once Mike tells me how to do so). The Week 1 thread will remain open until the deadline of 6 PM EST Saturday.
