spindown: Frankly, I don't think this format works very well. Finding the correct answer in the first place may be a bit tricky, but it is too easy to simply wait for a while and check other people's answers to quickly identify the correct one.
Edit: I am referring to the case where there is only one right answer that that can be unambiguously identified from the clues.
Yeah, I tend to agree. I am not very happy with it. Getting clues so that it's obvious but yet not TOO obvious is VERY, VERY difficult. Also, even if the clues are vague enough, then it becomes merely a guessing game... which I don't think it should be necessarily.
I much prefer the yes/no format.
...which is a bummer since I really like the idea of doing it like this because people from all time zones get a chance.
