This is in no way meant to be snarky, I’m just frustrated.

What does it take for me to get through to people to not add stuff in parentheses at the end of an answer? I’ve bolded, asterisked, etc., - do the regular players not read the rules?

Please understand - I copy (as in cut and paste) the list of answers all in a block, and paste them into a spreadsheet. I have to edit each answer to remove these extraneous notes and clarifiers.

Please stop it!!!
