Specify whether numerical answers require exact integers or allow a range. For example: 'Numerical answers must be the exact integer provided in the answer key.' This removes ambiguity for math-based.
The rules are clear, but the game feels like a pure speed test. Adding a 'penalty for wrong answer' would force a balance between speed and caution, making it more strategic than just typing fastest.
