OBTW,
I checked the DB, and the trivial question posed by Mike has been answered 123 times so far and of those 123 times, there have been 47 wrong answers.
(123 - 47) / 123 = 61.7% CORRECT.
The overall computer trivia score for all guests (in the same "guest" group as Mike Baran) is 63.8%,
This means that this "be precise in reading" question has been answered correctly by guests in a very close correlation to all questions answered in general by all guests; and so, statistically speaking, this leads me to believe (without rigorous proof) that most trivia players read the questions carefully, since that is the nature of TRUE / FALSE questions, generally speaking.
On the other hand, I have seen in the DB where some users answer questions at various intervals, some like to answer very fast and move on to the next question, some answer more slowly. Maybe someday I will write some code to try to determine the average rate of play for players and see if there is any correlation to player scores.
I know that, for me, I was taught to read T/F exam questions at least twice. Sometimes, I think I even scan them backward, LOL.
But like in all things, we are all different. Some chess players love speed chess. Others chess players prefer to sit and think out each move (like me) carefully. I've never been a fan of rapid chess, but others love it.
Anyway, I hope this helps.

fsck_msdosfs
FSCK_MSDOSFS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual FSCK_MSDOSFS(8)
NAME
fsck_msdosfs -- DOS/Windows (FAT) file system consistency checker
SYNOPSIS
fsck_msdosfs -p [-Cf] filesystem ...
fsck_msdosfs [-Cny] filesystem ...
DESCRIPTION
The fsck_msdosfs utility verifies and repairs FAT file systems (more commonly known as DOS file systems).
The first form of fsck_msdosfs preens the specified file systems. It is normally started by fsck(8) run from /etc/rc during automatic
reboot, when a FAT file system is detected. When preening file systems, fsck_msdosfs will fix common inconsistencies non-interactively. If
more serious problems are found, fsck_msdosfs does not try to fix them, indicates that it was not successful, and exits.
The second form of fsck_msdosfs checks the specified file systems and tries to repair all detected inconsistencies, requesting confirmation
before making any changes.
The options are as follows:
-C Compatibility with the corresponding fsck(8) option (skip check if clean), defined to no-op.
-F Compatibility with the wrapper fsck(8) which seeks to determine whether the file system needs to be cleaned immediately in fore-
ground, or if its cleaning can be deferred to background. FAT (MS-DOS) file systems must always be cleaned in the foreground. A
non-zero exit code is always returned for this option.
-f Force fsck_msdosfs to check ``clean'' file systems when preening.
-n Causes fsck_msdosfs to assume ``no'' as the answer to all operator questions, except ``CONTINUE?''.
-p Preen the specified file systems.
-y Causes fsck_msdosfs to assume ``yes'' as the answer to all operator questions.
SEE ALSO
fsck(8), fsck_ffs(8), mount_msdosfs(8)
HISTORY
The fsck_msdosfs utility first appeared in FreeBSD 4.4.
BUGS
The fsck_msdosfs utility is currently under development.
