    It's time for round 6. The same rules apply as before with 1 exception. Since we are down to only 2 contestants and both have 1 strike each the winner must get a round correct. So, both contestants will advance to anther round if both answer the round correctly or both answer the round incorrectly. If a winner isn't chosen after a few rounds, I will probably go to a drawing or something.
