try moving the defined variables above the compare code:

PHP Code:

$gscore = 4;
$hscore = 3;
$rscore = 2;
$sscore = 1;

if ($answer == $ganswer){ 
$score = $gscore; 
} elseif ($answer == $sanswer){ 
$score = $sscore; 
} elseif ($answer == $hanswer){ 
$score = $hscore; 
} else { 
$score = $rscore; 
}

if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2){ 
  $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET question1 = '" 
                  .$theqid 
                  ."', score1 = '" 
                  .$score ."' 
                  WHERE userid = '" 
                  .$bbuserinfo[userid]."'"); 
} 


and then add this to just below the compare code to see what is contained in $score.

PHP Code:

echo $score; 


so it would end up looking like this:

PHP Code:

$gscore = 4;
$hscore = 3;
$rscore = 2;
$sscore = 1;

if ($answer == $ganswer){ 
$score = $gscore; 
} elseif ($answer == $sanswer){ 
$score = $sscore; 
} elseif ($answer == $hanswer){ 
$score = $hscore; 
} else { 
$score = $rscore; 
}

echo $score;

if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2){ 
  $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET question1 = '" 
                  .$theqid 
                  ."', score1 = '" 
                  .$score ."' 
                  WHERE userid = '" 
                  .$bbuserinfo[userid]."'"); 
}
