.....the confusion. Isn't it interesting that we've gone through 6 weeks of building, are halfway through competition season, and even the most seasoned teams (as well as the judges "We have to check the rule book on this one&quot can't agree on what the rules of the finals are?

Through the cheering after we found out the last match was a tie, all I could picture in my head was if Joe J was here he'd probably faint or something seeing them flip that coin (knowing how he feels about the tiebreakers and even though the highest average score won the thing).

But I think the confusion added to the excitement, and it was intriguing to watch the teams around me pull out endless information from nowhere about the game to prove their points.

Congrats to the winners and all that played; it certainly was worth the drive & the wait.
