Funny idea! A lot of the people I did not know, so it could be a cool feature to have the option to see a slightly longer summary either before or after the guess is submitted

I was playing around with the idea of difficulty ramping, the first celeb would be more famous than the 2nd and so on.

I also want to go back through each celeb and add in what single thing they are most well known for, so for Edward Teller for example, i'd put "the father of the hydrogen bomb".

Just noticed the unmatched quote in the the title :(
