The game started out aggressively with 11 doubles (6 of those being in in round 3 alone!), things would even out though with a humbling round 6 & 7.

The Number of Homeless Dudes That Sean Has Blown Is... started the game out with 2 successful doubles in a row! They had a great rest of the game as well until an abysmal round 7 lead to them losing 2nd & falling into 3rd, taking the bronze!

HavingABlastCrisis had an extra aggressive game plan as they attempted 5 doubles. 2 of these doubles failed, but they still ended up in the positives with 3 of them being successful including an all too important double in the last round which had them snatch 2nd & take the silver!

Bruce Jennertalia had the kind of exceptional game we expect from them with 3 successful doubles in a row to start the game & another double for good measure in round 6 where they blasted even further into the lead. That lead would prove too great & they remain there, taking the gold & becoming the champions of the night!

We had a rather strange game tonight with it being rather difficult as indicated by the lower scores & the fact that there was only one successful double the entire game. The victories were no less glorious though as a champion emerged while a 3 way tiebreaker for runner-up decided the fates of 2nd & 3rd.

Bruce Jennertalia, LA PUBLIC DANK, & Silver Lining Nose all had similar games with a bad round (-1 in round 4 for Bruce Jennertalia & Silver Lining Nose & a failed double for LA PUBLIC DANK in round 3) & amazing rounds (Bruce Jennertalia with two 9s in a row, perfect round 1 & a 9 for LA PUBLIC DANK, & the only successful double of the game from Silver Lining Nose). They end the game in a 3 way tie for 2nd! LA PUBLIC DANK is the runner up in the tie breaker & takes bronze, while Bruce Jennertalia wins the tie breaker & takes the silver!

TRIVIA NEWTON JOHN had an excellent conservative game excluding a bad round 7 where every team scored under par. Their points before were enough of a cushion & they win this very difficult game! Taking the gold & becoming the champions of the night!

The game tonight had a very conservative start with only 1 successful double in the 1st half, however, the pace was ignited with a high scoring round 4 (where 9 teams got 10 points).

Big Buck Hunter '93 had a very slow start, but made themselves a force in an incredible 2nd half, getting 2 doubles & a perfect round! They snatch 3rd outta no where & take the bronze!

TRIVIA NEWTON JOHN followed a similar game plan with their own excellent 2nd half with a perfect round 4, 2 successful doubles, & a nearly perfect round 7! They steady the course & take the silver!

Fear of Flying, unlike these other 2 teams, not only had an amazing 2nd half, but also a very good 1st half! As if they needed that insurance though as they also have the best 2nd half of any team with 2 doubles & 2 perfect rounds (3 if you count round 3)! They end the game on a double & take the gold, becoming the champions of the night!
