Everyone is a Winner! No one is a Loser!

To keep up the illusion that we're ALL equal cost Scripps a mere $400K.

Agree, should have gone to a final winner. But I’m proud that 3 of the 8 were from North Texas (Dallas, Flower Mound and Irving).

Indian nationals are the smartest people I have ever worked with.

Genetically brilliant.

Is that racist?

I thought the same thing, but when you get to the 27th inning, I think even MLB might declare a tie...

Don't be an ass.

Seriously.

You're being an ass.

Stop, before you become even more asinine.

Longest game in MLB history:
May 1, 1920 — Brooklyn Robins at Boston Braves, 26 innings
The Robins (later called the Dodgers) and the Braves played to a 1-1 tie. Umpires called the game because of darkness.

:-)

The next longest game was played with lights, and did NOT end in a tie:
September 11, 1974 — St. Louis Cardinals at New York Mets, 25 innings The Cardinals defeated the Mets 4-3. And while no team wants to be on the losing end of such a long game, the Mets lost in the worst possible way: An error on a pickoff attempt.

Why only right?

Shouldn’t all participants be winners too?

I don't believe those are real words.

They should implement a combat phase to resolve ties like this.

I disagree. These weren't participation trophies. All of these students spelled all of the words correctly.

Maybe they can change the format to keep going until someone misses and compile enough words to cover this situation. But until then, this can happen.

Congratulations to all of the winners.

20 rounds isn’t everyone is a winner. That’s the competitors beat the judges.

sounds like the organizers failed to adequately prepare. kinda makes a mockery of the whole competition.

Can the top 8 NHL teams each get their own Stanley cup now?
