Because we have frequent issues with special characters (ie. leters in other alphabets or letters with accents) appearing in said quizzes. This is especially prevalent in the Language section but stretches across several World subcategories. As such, the system automatically disallows the option. This is also why we don't allow punctuation in FITB answers.

The non-ASCII characters aren't as troublesome in Quiz Game mode then? Edited by gracious1 (Thu Dec 20 2012 01:57 AM)
