Bakshi Boys came away with the victory at Rasselbock this week, overcoming a failed first round double. They doubled in round 2, then clawed their way back to first place by getting the Guess Who round at 8 points when no other team achieved more than 4. They doubled in round 7 to hold their narrow lead over Drink Coffee at the Merchant, who also doubled to finish with 69 points. Nice.

Drunk Math Tutors missed the first two rounds, but almost made third place after a fantastic double-double finish. Alas, Seymour Butts bested them by 5 after also doubling the final round.

$5 Footlong won the drinking round.

No team ever led by more than 3 points this week in a close match at Rasselbock. Twas a big night, with 15 teams participating. No doubles in the first two rounds left the scores fairly even early in the game. 8(!) teams doubled in an unusually easy round three, however, creating a level of separation. Drink Coffee at the Merchant, who did not double that round, made up for it with the only double in round 5. That gave them the largest lead of the night, at just three points, which they were able to barely hang onto.

The final round was naming the top coffee-exporting countries, and Drink Coffee at the Merchant was almost disqualified due to the oft-forgotten "if you have 'coffee' in your team name and you can't get 2/3 of the questions right in a coffee round, you lose" rule, but a merciful judgement allowed them to claim their title. Giddy Up gained ground on the question, but couldn't quite overcome the deficit. Area 51 miraculously was successful on a hail mary double-or-nothing in round 7, which catapulted them from 9th to 3rd to round out the podium.

Area 51 also won the drinking round.

An exhilarating finish this week with not one but TWO ties needing to be broken to decide the podium.

Snipey Snipes and Takin Care of Quizness went into the final round tied for third, nine points behind first place Giddy Up and six behind ScholarsandChampions.org. Snipes and Quizzness each doubled the final round, however, vaulting them into a tie for first. ScholarsandChampions.org got a perfect 10, but apparently weren't confident enough to double and they were surpassed. They did however, catch Giddy Up for a tie for third.

Snipey Snipes won the first place tiebreaker, and Giddy Up won for third.
