The repeat guess penalty affected the final outcome. MM was sniped twice and lost six points as a result -- the exact difference between his four point total and Chad's winning score of 10. What did you think of that clause? (Props to LWFS for thinking it up in an earlier trivia contest). I though it discouraged latecomers from participating, what with all of the pages of guesses already submitted.

I was bouncing Tapani around my head (actually bouncing "that other guy besides Aguilera that went for Viola"), but had no real crack at Lary.

I thought Lary was the toughest, by far. In fact, when I first made the top 35 list, I skipped Lary. I caught him on the double-check.
