Yeah, they seem to acknowledge the part we're speaking about at the end of each section, but I've been taught to answer it stating the question first, then the answer.

Also, they seem to explain a lot of things differently. Like, 5-pointed silver star instead of just "and one silver star." The also seem to explain the background color.

Ah man, thanks for the tips. That's pretty tricky!!! Very good to know...
