Alas, my friends, the time has come.
This sixth game is almost done!

The answers that I've accepted are:
Golf Ball Raise - MadCow
Balloon Task - Tails
Endothermic - hippo9, T2D
Infrared - TCS

They all got bonus.

The standings thus are:
First Place (180 points): TheChiScientist*++
Second Place (177 points): Tailsfan101+, MadCow2357*++
Fourth Place (176 points): hippo9++
Fifth Place (136 points): Things2Do++
Sixth Place (60 points): Name
Seventh Place (39 points): Benewcomb
*Disadvantage
+Bonus - will be factored in at the end

Final standings:

Seventh Place with 39 points is... Benewcomb!
Sixth Place with 60 points is... Name!
Fifth Place with 146 points is... Things2Do!
Fourth Place with 182 points is... Tailsfan101!

The bronze medalist is...
[spoiler]hippo9 - 186 points[/spoiler][/color]

The silver medalist is...
[spoiler]MadCow2357 - 187 points[/spoiler]

And the gold goes to...
[spoiler]TheChiScientist - 190 points[/spoiler]

Sadly, no one got the perfect score of 210!
From the last bonus question, I received 2 votes for the old method, 2 for the new, and 1 vote that was neutral with a lean toward the old method.

I hope that TD happens again.

Thanks for a great game! :D

Goodbye! :cry:

I miss one question and it costs me the game... (This is why I like the old method better, so you don't have to send a PM ten straight days.)
"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.

Now the real questions:

1. When will the next sassy game start?
2. Who will run Think Different the Seventh?

Not that this matters, but how does my two + gain as much as Madcow's 2+ and a disadvantage?
Or is that just tiebreak and I'm dumb?
