You're thinking of another word board where suggestions and hints are given rather than the actual term in question so that the person asking the question does his/her own work and learns something from it. This board, as someone once said and was badly flamed, "spoon feeds" answers to questions. The answers should be researched before they are provided. It is up to the questioner to research the supplied answers to make sure they fit in with the dictation.

No one can learn from incorrect answers like "expressive achalasia" and "polynephritis." They'll only lose their jobs and wonder why.
