During my game, I got two copies of the exact same question (everything matching - text, answer options, info, author and correct %) right next to each other in slots 11 and 12.

Seems the selection algorithm had a brief hiccup there.

I had that once. It wasn't back-to-back though. It was something like questions 4 and 12.

In the easy game, I had the exact same question (who sang 'livin la vida loca') as both question 2 and 3, same stats and author and whatnot. Then, question 7 or 8 was the same question as well, albeit the II was slightly different and author was different, but the question was the same and even the answers were all the same.

That question could legitimately be answered with both yes and no, depending on how you read it.
