Y'know, I read every Liter tab every day and still manage to have never seen anything related to a handful of these quiz questions before. Are there TF-only items included? Or am I just that epic at my not-news-retention fail?

The problem that I have with these weekly quizzes is that I've been lead to believe that the answer on Fark is always c).

Gotta be liter threads only. TF threads don't link to news stories, they're just cafes, TorD, alts AWing, and rubouts to BoE.

For what it's worth, we write the questions as hard as we can. If I hadn't written them, I think I'd only get about 7/11 myself. If it was easy, people would get bored and not come back.

Fark greenlit threads only, but remember, there are roughly 1000 greenlit threads every week. There's no shame at all in not remembering them all unless you're blessed with eidetic memory.

I like Fark just fine but I spend enough time here as it is - no TOTAL*FARK.

Ir would be interesting to see the leader board with "Liter" or "Totalfarker" beside the names.

Liters typically do better than TFers on this particular quiz.
