Adds a section with consistent formatting listing 3 unique anecdotes from a list at "{{CURRENTPAGE}}/anecdotes". Current behavior is to fetch the list using and then pick the n, 2n, and 3n-th entries, where n is the current day index. If there are fewer than three, it will omit those bullet points.
NOTE: Currently refs are not supported in lists, including anecdote pages.

Anecdotes
- Full list: here
- Matt is the best known user of the phrase "that's a word", which he directed towards moderator Mike Sorice while playing a bonus part on "hapticity" in the NSC All-Star Round.
- The answerline of "zeppelins" was briefly a facetious benchmark of absurd difficulty after Matt insisted that a NASAT tossup on zeppelins written by Mike Cheyne was extremely difficult to answer.
- At one point Carsten Gehring and Mike Cheyne referred to the duo of Bollinger and Evan Adams as "Rizzoli and Isles" respectively in reference to the unpopular TNT program - an attempt to find other quizbowlers to fit the similarly-titled TNT show Franklin & Bash was inconclusive.
