The Basics
Tie Breakers
In the event of a tie, whichever team has answered the most bonus questions correctly, will be declared winner.
If a second tie breaker is needed, the team who has correctly answered the most question #1's, will be declared winner.
If needed, we will proceed through the questions in numerical order, until a winner is determined.
