Not too bad, 3 points should be defendable in the last round.

Correct, none of us expect that to happen
Questions 1 and 3 look hard to predict, not liking my chances of going up the leaderboard now

[lame excuse]I have set the deadline at 15 december (no time specified), and it's still 15 december in the States[/lame excuse]
In other words, didn't have the time to post the results, they'll probably come in about 7 hours

Spoiler We have three joint winners, who all didn't score the maximum points available. matt17br, OZrocker and trekbmc, congratulations! You're sorted alphabetically btw, so I don't hate you by putting you last trekbmc ) MARSUPILAMI, nacho63, rogvi97 and roturn scored 22 points. Dippofix, fjhoekie and TheManx Missile (who has an Infant Animals-fetish) all succeeded in scoring a five pointer, while knockout failed to do so by naming Turkey.

With knockout going for a five-pointer, Selwink was never in any doubt this round. nacho63 managed to hold of matt17br for seconds place, while knockout knocked himself out and fell off the podium to a joined fourth place with lakebeach.

Good round for me, nice to end up on the podium as well, even though those 2 points for the 2nd hurt a little
EDIT: Even better to win the round alone! And I'm now second overall as well, even more bettererer

Sorry but it's wrong! I named a TurTurkeyKey which is something different just like a Cordon Bleu is not a Schnitzel.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!
