Technically I got more points than The_Templar did within the championship match though  . He got 10 for the sentence whereas I got 2 words plus a letter for 11 points.

Ok but why would anyone ever try to solve words in the championship game? Just to be sure it's right? Seems like a bad strategy :D

That's because I always go yolostrats with sentence guesses.

Because if points don't matter within championship matches there isn't any reason to go for words?

Well one solves for words to get 5 points usually, but points are useless in the championship game apparently.
So solving for words only makes it easier for others because you cannot directly post again after you solved a word. Doesn't seem to be worth it imo.
But sure now the rules are 100% clear :D

If I'm confident enough about a word to guess it, it probably isn't that word that's causing me problems. It would be the words I don't have a guess for.

Or YOLO the sentences :p

Yeah i am with ziggurator here, the current intended rules make it so guessing words isn't worth it for the championship game.
That's not a problem necessarily, but for me (and him i guess) it looked like you win with most points even for the championship game :D It's all cleared up now though, so that's good.

Except the person guessing presumably already has a good idea as to what the word is, and so you're helping others much more than yourself by actually guessing the word.

Gotcha. In that case, if you or anyone else has any suggestions on how to improve the rules then I'm all ears.

If you still want the champion to be the guy who solves the sentence and don't do points in the championship game as well, i don't think there is a good adjustment.
I think current rules are fine though, it just wasn't completely clear.

The reason I didn't add points for the championship game is because some people are way too ahead of others that even winning the championship game wouldn't make a difference.
For example: In Season 1, rotta had 53 points after the season ended. Which meant that no matter how hard people tried, they probably wouldn't be able to win over rotta. Even if I did raise the Championship Game to give out more points, that doesn't automatically mean that rotta won't take some of those points as well.
That's why I went with this format for the championship game. It gives others an opportunity to try to win it despite being down in points. But the people with high points still needed some kind of advantage for participating in the regular season, which is why I made the revives system.

That's not what we meant by points.
I'd assumed that everyone who qualified started at 0 again within the championship game, and that whoever got the most points by the end of the championship game would win.
But it really doesn't matter as long as it's clear that the winner is just the person that gets the sentence rather than the person with the most points in the championship game.
