Inaccurate logging of accuracy

"What is the true response slide??"

A bad name for trying to name the slide where the actual response is
made.

"...so I'd tend to think that there then is something
      wrong with he correct responses you specified there."

Probably. I respond by left mouse button, and the 'correctresp' in a
list is set to 1. Also, the Allowable response is set to 1. So i don't
know what's wrong there
