They pop up occasionally. Not that regularly.
Very often you can work out the stupid logic, these people must have, if you can be bothered to re-read it.
The host site's based in the U.S., and a lot of the submitted quizes the questions are taken from, are sent in by Americans.
A lot, not all, plenty are submitted from the U.K.
I've got quizes I made on there, somewhere.

That's what bumps the time up.
I had one today that I read and reread and read again and still got wrong.

They are as frustrating for us all, though.
Since none of us live in apartment above a beauty salon, on the outskirts of Little Rock.
Where these issues must be very important worries.

Do they have etiquette in the US?

Yes, what passes for it, because they have no class.
I used to be on the floor reading the problem page in the original Gentleman's Quarterly, in the seventies.
People would be on the edge of a nervous breakdown, because they didn't know whether it was acceptable to wear a ribbed lisle sock, with a patent evening pump, or not.

G would never dock you karma, even though gender issues are his Béte noir!
How do you get an "e" with ^ over it?

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
Just checked -if no-one else plays that makes 2 days on the run....
Must keep extracting the woad ready to paint up for the new challenge next month -am feeling pretty agressive - getting all weapons ready for a full on offensive...
Sue will be receiving her quota of woad too as it's time for the ladies to make themselves heard! Will be giving Aromaanne the hard word too -she's been letting things slip lately...

I had a 2 last month -worst ever result! You've made a great start this month as a new player..so has Sue!
If you snap at my heels should make me quicker -that's my main problem -not built for speed!
