- Every group is on the board. Click a group (or press its number), then click the bank buttons that belong to it.
- When a group is full the next open one takes over. A wrong pick stays in the bank: it belongs somewhere else.
- Start with the groups you are sure of; what is left helps with the rest.
- Pause whenever you like (Esc). The board hides while the clock is stopped.
Pick the right number of presidents for each state. The groups and the bank appear when you start.
About this quiz
A countdown over the states that have produced the most presidents. Where a state has more presidents than its group needs, the earliest are used.
- All groups are on the board at once: fill them in any order.
- A wrong pick costs that group a slot, and the president stays in the bank because he belongs somewhere else.
- Each president has exactly one birth state, so no name fits two groups.
