JESUS I'd be right in this if it weren't for my idiocy/bad luck on the first question.

Not that I have a chance of winning anymore. But you should have asked me to clarify which Williams instead of marking it incorrect.

venus and serena both correct...maybe give gus a 2 for matching either of the sister aces but only give the specific people the 1 point since he didn't specify?

The standard rule in peehs is that if you give only a last name and there are multiple answers with that last name, you group them with the sheepiest of those answers.

In this case, Serena and Venus both got 1, so maybe give him two since it would be unfair to randonly penalize one of the people who did put a first name.

in this case, the sheepiest was 1 and they both got one...so which do u group it with?

since there are two sheep for it, i say he gets the penalty but the other two don't

I can access from my BlackBerry but not from the pc. Looks like a new home page for the site. Wonder if that's the problem...
