Simon most handsome>geoo smartest. No, really I flipped a coin
I've got to make up to him for stealing his money!
geoo would like to thank those who picked him (the correct answer), and apologize for picking Simon, as he expected most players would be mislead and do the same.
Simon. Geoo will actually quit college and find his true calling in the Circus. Years later he’ll marry a Chinese dwarf and live happily ever after on an island in the South Pacific.
7. You're a busy college student, and there's a lot of procrastinating on your to-do list.
But you have an assignment due on Friday at noon (11:59 am).
It's Monday morning right now. What day do you start working on the assignment?
Thursday [4] - 1 point
Wednesday [3] - 3/4 points
Monday [2] - 2/4 points
Firday [1] - 1/4 points
Right now! Today. I’m going to procrastinate the procrastination.
In reality, I'd do it Thursday night, but I expected the other players to be a bit more diligent, like mobius, so I went with Monday.
Thursday night, sorry. Most of my profs don't take late work.
Mixed Questions8. SafesThe haul is even worse than the previous time the safes were attacked:
#1: 1 kicks, 1.0 points - waiting: Akseli
#2: 2 kicks, 2.4 points - kicking: Gronkling, Insane Steve (0.3 points); waiting: Clam Spammer, ccexplore (0.6 points)
#3: 3 kicks, 4.2 points - kicking: Simon, geoo; waiting: RubiX
#4: 4 kicks, 6.0 points - kicking: möbius
Only safe 2 gets cracked, and in addition to the two guys kicking it, there's two more leeching (LemSteven doesn't kick because because his foot still hurts from kicking it the last time, and Clam brazenly rehashes his answer from the previous time). Akseli could have got the 1.0 points from the first safe for himself, but he waits in front for it to open, which doesn't happen. RubiX is lazy too and doesn't help Simon and geoo to open the third safe.
9. CaveTwo pairs of players annoy each other till the end, and no-one finds the treasure:

*) mobius actually wears the bucket on the top of his head and runs around singing: “How do you solve a problem like Maria?”, but the distraction maneuver doesn't work unfortunately.
**) Gronkling actually tries to ladle-attack Akseli (see photo below courtesy of Gronkling), but Akseli fends him off and sends him to the end of the waiting queue.
Scoring:
2.82 - geoo
2.48 - Insane Steve
2.37 - Akseli
1.95 - Clam
1.30 - Simon
0.00 - everyone else
Early Clam catches the soup (even though he commented "I am *so* gonna get screwed for trying this"), and so does Steve, before both get kicked out by Akseli and geoo respectively. Akseli and geoo occupy the soup kitchen for most of the day, intimidating everyone else with their forks, until ccexplore attack Akseli, and Simon gets rewarded after waiting for over 11 hours. But RubiX, mobius, LemSteven and Gronkling wait all night and get nothing, no soup for them.
Final results:1. geoo (9.62)
2. Clam (8.72)
3. LemSteven (8.133)
4. Insane Steve (8.129)
5. Simon (7.91)
6. Akseli (7.35)
7. ccexplore (6.16)
8. Gronkling (5.72)
9. mobius (5.67)
10. RubiX (5.24)
LemSteven leads quite comfortably after the first nine questions (see spreadsheet), but the soup kitchen questions scores unproportionally high, so he gets bumped down to third place after getting nothing there.
The attached spreadsheet (based on Clam's, thanks for that!) contains the detailed results.
