* Extrainfo Text: Rufus the spelling/grammar robot: I don't like '!!'.

Who is Rufus and why doesn't he like my quiz? He let me submit it, though!

Honestly, more than one exclamation point is considered extra, and one would suffice for the same meaning. It's not incorrect, which is why you could still submit the quiz, however, the second (or third) exclamation point are superfluous where one would suffice for the same meaning. That's what Rufus was trying to say.

Rufus the Robot sends out alerts to let you know you may have something you want to change, but they are orange messages, which you can treat as optional. It is only red messages that indicate an issue which will keep you from submitting.

Thank you, I had never seen the message before, that's why I didn't know what it meant. I checked the quiz and I do have a double exclamation point, by mistake. I'll correct it as soon as the quiz goes online. It will make Rufus happy.

Rufus does not appreciate of overenthusiastic authors. You need to be only mildly enthusiastic. And you definitely don't want to use a double factorial (!!) in a math quiz :)
