Index S
S is for... Swerve - A question that seems to be asking for one answer then deviates unexpectedly at the end to a different one. For example: "The currency of Egypt is the pound... but how many ounces are there in a pound of weight?" Though unfair, it can guard against experienced quiz players from trying too many interruptions.
