Memorandum

TWO FINAL DILEMMAS ARE COMING SOON.

As I stated in an earlier post, my intention has always been to make this a seasonal game. Season one is almost complete. #35 will be the final dilemma. How long will I be on vacation? I don't know. A month...maybe two...maybe six.

Just to make it more interesting (sorry, Alex), I'm going to change the scoring scheme for #34 and #35: A correct answer will receive 3.5 points and an incorrect answer will receive -1 point.

The winner will receive two rewards: 1) A biographical post written by the Decider; 2) Authorship for three dilemmas next season (sorry, I still get to choose the answer). Runner-up gets authorship for one dilemma next season. Honorable mention gets an honorable mention.

You said it was 50!! Fickle Decider... but I do agree that this feels like an appropriate time to take a break.

Will the points be starting over in the next round?

The Decider said...

Did I say 50? I probably said "maybe 50" or something similar. In any case, one of the benefits of being the Decider is that I can say whatever I want whenever I want.

Points will definitely start over in the next round (assuming there will be a next round).

I vigorously object to the new scoring system.

Confidence, Alex! Confidence!!

Does the winner and author of four dilemmas next season also get to be the decider for those dilemmas?

The Decider said...

NO. I'm sorry, but there is only one Decider.
