Was I the only one today to expect Q6 to be about S'mores?

Hint: "2017 Brian Smrz movie"
Thought process: "Most likely a red herring, that there hint. I won't fall for it this time. It's clearly a phonetical hint where 'smrz' = s'mores. The rest of the hint is nothing but a decoy......."

Hint: "2017 Brian Smrz movie"
Just for reference (for "24-26 hours" answer on 6 question):
Brian Smrz
24 Hours to Live (2017)

The quiz went smooth for me, even though I had to use my phone as a modem since my ethernet connection suddenly stopped working. And let me tell you: noticing that I have no internet 4 minutes before quiz is due is not fun.

Heh, I failed to find any food reference in movie's synopsis and decided that it must be about how fast some food expires.

Well aware of it, though it doesn't change the fact that the answer COULD have been about s'mores. ;)
It wouldn't have been the first time a hint was a curveball. (Not saying that this hint was a curveball, but that other hints in the past have been.)
Edit: minor typo

Probably, some "hint" about this was in the note:
note: some questions might be slightly tangential thou

That note is about the questions being tangential though, and not the hints. ;)

Sixth question bugged for me too, only visual, didn't effect the prize.

The response times: 1125, 813, 563, 656, 1016, 11501(bugged), 875, 531, 719, 594
The bug has an even greater delay then last time. Don't feel like going trough the log in greater detail this evening, I'll post it later if I find anything in there.
