The Year of the Tie

So even though there are more ties in this years game, I'd rather have more ties, with low scoring more exciting matches then less ties and high scoring boring games.

There were a lot of really exciting matches last year, IMO. Most matches were great in the last 20 seconds, but there were still a lot of really great qualifying matches too. While last year was still good, I agree that I like this year's low-scoring matches better, despite the ties. Actually, the ties were almost more exciting than the 26-1 victories
