Game Highlights

Halftime: Absolute Chaos

This wasn't just a close game… this was gridlock at the top.

  • THREE separate ties at halftime
  • Anger Management barely holding the lead… just 1 point ahead of Lucky Guess and That's What She Said
  • A massive 3-team tie for 4th (Change Up, 3 Brains and a Wayne, Retired Beach Bums) right on their heels
  • And even the bottom wasn't safe—Pine Nuts & Gryffindorks tied for 7th

Only 8 points separated 1st from 7th.
Translation: EVERYONE was still in this fight.


The Shift Before the Final

Just when it looked like anyone's game…

  • 3 Brains and a Wayne made a HUGE push, jumping into 1st place
  • Gryffindorks surged into 3rd, setting the stage for a wild finish

No safety nets. No playing it safe. Just pure trivia chaos.

Bold moves were made… and the scoreboard shifted!
