3rd place playoff. Val and Amp vs HBE and Traz.
Mr and Mrs game thread Quote
05-17-2008 , 02:00 PM
HBE did not submit any answers so Traz and HBE score 0 for all rounds, and by default, answering all questions Val and Amp are guarenteed at least the four points from round 4, so they are our third place teams.

I will post the answers, but I will not bother to score them as they are immaterial.
