Let us pause for a moment and ponder the power of the well-executed double! Veteran King Trivia players are well aware that the successful double-or-nothing strategy is often the key to winning. But the UN-successful double just stings SOOO much!!
With this in mind, we tip our hats to last night's winner, Mystery Science Theater 3000, who executed the late-game double in Round 6 and correctly matched up "Earth. It was fun while it lasted!" with the film Armageddon. (Most popular incorrect match there was Mars Attacks!)
I know...it stings. We have an ointment for that!
Honorable mention to Friends of Frieda, who doubled on the difficult 7th round (Callisto is a very big moon!), and Team Reluctant, which lived up to its name by opting not to double on ANY round, yet finished in second place, just ONE POINT ahead of the good folks of Westeros Baptist Church - who also didn't double...but COULD have! (chickens!)
See ya next week!
