Why not go with the following (simple) solution:

     <p>What colour should the bikeshed be?</p>
     <input type="hidden" name="question" value="42">
     <input type="radio" name="guess" value="Brown">Brown
     <input type="radio" name="guess" value="Green">Green
     <input type="radio" name="guess" value="Orange">Orange
     <input type="radio" name="guess" value="Blue">Blue
     <input type="radio" name="guess" value="Black">Black

Or is that too straight forward? :)
