The game started off with a top 50% median but kicked into high gear with high scores all around in the second round and the first double down for the night. Round three was similar; doubling up on the double downs, but things began to slow down in round four as teams became a little more conservative.
Very high scores in round five, but two high-value double-downs from Quiz Kid Donnie Smith and the Kids' Table made everyone a little nervous. Round six was devastating, but almost universally, as teams more less hovered around where they were. Round seven proved to be a little better, but a clutch final round double-down from Tequila mockingbirds cinched the win!

We mostly started off small today, but by round 2, teams were kicking it into high gear with most in the 70th percentile or higher and a few double-downs! Round 3 began to split things up as folks scored low or doubled and we began to see leaders emerge.
Many Teams scratched their heads for a while, trying to guess where, but a few decided to roll the dice early and Sin City obliged them kindly. Round 5 was a bit savage as the competition mounted and some of the leaders were able to secure high-value double-downs and pull waaaaaaay ahead!
Round 6 rocked everyone's confidence and teams began to choke on the fumes from all the auto exports in round 7, letting the scores even up a bit, but not quite enough and the leaders were able to stay far enough ahead to grasp victory.
