	You are in a dark room with a candle, a wood stove, and a gas lamp. You only have one match. Which do you light first?

	gave up after the first two. Wonder Woman = only woman, and only one with no movie (AFAIK). House = only one that is not transportation. But both were "wrong".

	I'm sorry you gave up after only two. Think of this quiz as a mentally stimulating diversion rather than a knowledge based quiz. Be sure to read through the note at the top carefully and perhaps give it another try. I promise you, there is a way to get 7/7 on this quiz.

	There are others you can single out for different reasons. House- not a vehicle, Italy- does not start with an S, Washington monument- not a human sculpted figure, Toronto Maple Leafs- only Canadian team.

	You could pick any one of these for any number of different reasons. This isn't clever, it's just annoying.

	Seeing as no one yet has gotten the 'correct' answer to this quiz, perhaps I'll explain a bit more. @Strattosphere, you are very correct... every one of the four items in the list can be singled out. Actually, if you play through the quiz a second time using the answers you're given the fist time, you should realize this. This quiz is designed to be played multiple times. (Don't worry, doesn't up the play count if you finish 0/7) The first comment in this quiz is a clue and not some random riddle I put there. The riddle is meant to help you realize that when presented with a simple set of items, perhaps none are the right answer and you need to think outside the box a bit. I'll say this again, and is the biggest clue I can give: read the quiz note carefully. If you clear your mind of what you expect from this quiz, and follow the note exactly how it is spelled out, you will find the answer (not plural).

	I was on the same page as the other people as to why this quiz was terrible. But then on the 2nd play through, I realized the 'correct' answer I was given from before were still wrong. After a while, I figured out the trick (the game note indeed is important!) and ended up pleased. Very clever!

	It's hilarious that this quiz appears to have more comments and ratings than plays, at the time of my commenting. Obviously the Sporcle system of not counting a play unless the player gets a right answer strikes again. @actwentysix, I liked the game, clearly the standard Spocler is a little too used to not having to think outside the box.
