- Worth noticing
- The FAQ says each answer is the only Wikipedia page in all its displayed categories; clues stay frozen as a snapshot.
Field notes
The FAQ spells out answer matching: titles may omit bracketed text, accept common aliases, and ignore punctuation, while sequel numbers must match exactly. Categories are frozen snapshots, and the site says each answer is the only Wikipedia page in every displayed category. Personal stats stay in the browser; the FAQ says a random cookie ID counts each player once per card, without collecting names or emails.
