Almost done!

New Scoreboard is up! The 'twist' is holding steady at only not affecting three people. No one has guessed what it is.

Round Nine Answers are unscreened! The winners were:

gelsey: first place, for clever use of drink names,
penchaft: second place, for a long-winded and witty story,
lyonza: third place, for tossing vampires into the mix.

Round Ten will close tomorrow. I know it's short notice, but most people have already given answers, so I figure it's okay. And then...

Well, then you'll see.

Grins. I'm glad you liked it.

Can't wait to see if I got Round Ten right or not. Very clever, that.

I'd assume since you got 10 points instead of 20 or 30 or 0, you got 1 right... maybe...?

I hadn't really looked at that.

Should I mean to say, I look forward to finding out the real answers, then.

Tune in later tonight and you will! :D

You're so smart! :P

WHAT! We could use multiple sentences in that round? I AM OUTRAGED.

- Three people DO NOT have palindromic scores, so you're not reversing them.
- More than three people have answered every round, so you're not giving out averages for those rounds for people who have missed rounds.
- More than three people have no bonus points, so you're not taking them away.

BUT
- There are three contestants whose usernames begin with A, C, T, L, and N so you COULD be scaling depending on first letters.
- There are three people whose total score ends in the number 6.

MAYBE
- Three contestants ARE ACTUALLY ZOMBIES and will... not get... bonus alive points...?

You're kind of close with part of it, but not the ultimate twist or the reason behind it. ;P But bonus points for trying!
