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.

GRIDLOCK(6) Games Manual GRIDLOCK(6)
NAME
Gridlock - collection of grid-based board games
SYNOPSIS
Gridlock
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the Gridlock command.
Gridlock is a collection of several grid-based strategy games. The games include Ataxx, Reversi, Gomoku, Connect Four, Breakthrough, Glass
Bead, Hexapawn, Quad Wrangle, Cats and Dogs and Moray Eels.
After launching the application, the game window will appear. Select the game you want to play from the "Game" popup menu in the upper
right. Some games have different starting configurations (board size, grid layout, etc); when one of those games are selected a "Configura-
tions" popup menu will appear from which you can select a configuration.
The bottom right displays the color and status of the two players. Each player's color is shown by a circle; the player whose turn it is
has a filled circle. For games in which players have a score (Ataxx, Eeversi, Glass Bead), the scores are shown next to the player labels.
Popup windows underneath each player's label allow you to specify whether each player is human or computer-controlled, and the difficulty
of computer players. (Note that "Hard" computer opponents may take a long time to make their moves).
The rest of the window contains the game board. To make a move, click on the cell where you wish to place a piece. Ataxx and Breakthrough
require that you move from one cell to another; to do this first click on the cell you wish to move from, then click on the cell you wish
to move to. For all games, cells that are legal moves will become highlighted when you move the mouse over them. If you are unable to make
a move, you can pass by clicking the "Pass" button on the right. The "Restart" button will restart the game, requiring confirmation if a
game is in progress.
You can play these games over the network. It is possible to save and load games.
