Rules

• Teams will answer questions in random order
• Each team will have the same number of turns
• Teams will have 30 sec. to answer a question
• If a team answers a question incorrectly, the
  next team will get a chance to steal the points
• The team with the most points at the end of the
  game will win 5 extra credit points on our next
  test (for each team member.) The second place
  team will receive 4 points. Then 3 points, etc.
