Commentary
Welcome to the game, everyone! We currently have 21 lucky players, all vying for the title of "Best Thinker," which is a title I just made up! Glad to see we started off with a serious answer in first position and a joke-but-also-is-it answer in second place, well done everybody.
This round we had five perfect scores, likely in part to the three-way tie for third place: Cephrir, D3f3nd3r, DeasVail, Shadoweh, StrangerCoug! On the smaller end, our first drop isIrcher, earning just two points for the United Kingdom. Alas!
I'm including screenshots of both the overall scoreboard and the individual scoring for this round; in the future it'll just be the overall scoreboard, but as I built this spreadsheet from scratch, I wanted to give the eagle-eyed among you a chance to check my work. (I don't know why the scoreboard image is so big but I'll beat it into shape for future rounds)
I don’t see my name anywhere on this list.
