Support - Ask here - Quiz - Aluminum Can
icecube - Tue Apr 19, 2011 5:28 am Post subject: Quiz - Aluminum Can I think this question has two answers. In many places, aluminum cans are made of aluminum.
But the quiz refers to "in some locations, cans made of aluminum are called "tin cans", like wikipedia says. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin_can)
It's only 5 pts but can questions be clearer?

I agree. I don't recall seeing in some places in the quiz question, but here in the USA aluminum cans are indeed made of aluminum.

Oh sorry. My post is misleading. The "some places" is just a quote from wikipedia.

The problem is that quiz questions have become ambiguous lately. You give the most likely answer but the quiz author has chosen an obscure response as the quiz answer.

Yes, another perplexing quiz.
A brief Google search yields an answer of Scotland, backing up my first instinct choice.

No perplexing quiz, sometimes you could also think that can be a human mistake, since quiz are submit by mod/admins. and we can make mistakes when typing the right answer

Well, it certainly did not originate in France. But like you said: people make mistakes. Keep the five credits though. I can spare them.
