Is FizzBuzz getting used so often in interviews that we're supposed to expect that people will have seen it before, thus the need to put a twist on it? This may say quite a bit about the unoriginality of interviews, if that is the case.

I use it as a warm-up in every interview question, and it takes longer to actually write a solution than to reason your way through it, so I've had a long time to think specifically about this problem while waiting for candidates to finish typing. It's always interesting to see what sort of half-baked idea I come up with by the end.
