Question answers are ordered as they are added...
First: why not add a weight system to allow to reorder them?
Second: why not add a shuffle option (per question of course) so answers are shuffled... The way the answers are displayed and the result stored (and summary computed) make that possible...
What do you think of that?

Yeah, that was definitely something I saw, as well. I'd be interested to see a clean way to set the weight of both questions and answers, allowing for randomization within that framework. I think the important thing would be to keep the interface clean.

you can setup the query to do ORDER BY answer.weight, RAND()

That way if you have 10 answers with the first 5 on 0 (zero) and the remaining 5 sequentially counting up from 1 to 5 then you'd get (IN THEORY) the first 5 questions randomized and the final ones in order... Kind of pseudo-grouping

A good example you can use to test on ANY Drupal install right now is:

select mid, weight from menu order by weight DESC, RAND()
