The stream of hint boxes that need to be closed before the page actually loads is very distracting and probably unnecessary to most users

Good to know. Still figuring out what the right mix is for that.

going through the tutorial, once I clicked on the world cup it is a blank page. Load related I expect. Very interesting concept though. You just need that critical mass of fact checkers.

For some reason our load balancer thinks 2 of the instances aren't healthy (though they are) - checking on that, seems to be working now.

You can replace "Upvote" with two buttons: "Like" and "Confirm". Because people will tend to upvote things even if they are not sure wherther the fact is true or not, simply because they like that fact.

There are way too many low quality (twitter?) messages. Personally, I would not spend any of my time refuting and upvoting them. People have only 24 hour in a day, you need to provide better links, so people not only filter the data, but find new interesting stuff.
