**Jon Calhoun:** See, this is the problem...
**Mat Ryer:** Last life, Jon...
**Jon Calhoun:** It could be a self-fulfilling prophecy if I lose this for us...
**Mat Ryer:** Come on, get in the minds of these surveyed Gophers. You know them by now... You got to know them over a series of five rounds of simple questions; you feel like you know them pretty well... What do you think?
**Jon Calhoun:** Um, readable?
**Mat Ryer:** Readable. I love that answer. Let's see. Gophers say... \[fail sound\] No, they did not. That is a surprise. And unfortunately, that was your last life, which means team zero has a chance to steal, and basically win the game if they can get either the second or the fourth answer from this board. You're al...
**Natalie Pistunovich:** What do you say?
**Julie Qiu:** Oh, boy...
**Steve Francia:** I think I would say -- I'll give you a few. Efficient...
**Julie Qiu:** That was mine!
**Steve Francia:** Secure...
**Julie Qiu:** That was what I have in mind.
**Steve Francia:** I mean, it is what it says on the Go website, which I've put there. You could also say "fun". "Fun" is another one. So fun, efficient, secure.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Secure is a good one.
**Julie Qiu:** I like efficient.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Efficient? It's interesting that some of the other questions have seven answers, and this one has only four, so it looks like everybody has the same thing in mind... Or they've just dropped out of the questionnaire. Okay, so I guess --
**Jon Calhoun:** I think anything below five answers gets dropped.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Oh, so it's actually the other way around. So many answers.
**Mat Ryer:** Mm-hm.
**Steve Francia:** Many people answered the same things in this one.
**Julie Qiu:** Yeah.
**Mat Ryer:** 25 people said "simple", 9 people said "fast". There's still two answers to get on the board, positions two and four.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Then how many people said "efficient"?
**Mat Ryer:** Shall we find out? Is that your answer?
**Natalie Pistunovich:** \[40:23\] Yes.
**Mat Ryer:** Would you like to lock it in?
**Natalie Pistunovich:** I would like to lock it in to number two, please. \[laughter\]
**Mat Ryer:** Well, you don't get to choose... Let's find out. Efficient. Gophers say... \[fail sound\] You've been hanging out in Germany too long, Natalie...
**Jon Calhoun:** They haven't been reading Steve's page.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** I've been reading the documentation. It says there.
**Steve Francia:** It is on the website...
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah. Okay, we're gonna award those points, and let's find out, at number four on this board - people said, with just one word, the Go language was... Fun! Which was mentioned...
**Rob Findley:** I knew it!
**Mat Ryer:** Fast is at number three, nine people... At number two, pragmatic. 12 people said that. It would have earned you 24 points.
**Katie Hockman:** At least it doesn't say secure...
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah... \[laughter\]
**Jon Calhoun:** Well, there are just a lot of answers with four or less then...
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah, we'll do the data crunching and find out. It sometimes happens there's lots of answers, and it's not many people agreeing; only if you had five or more will it make it onto the board, of course... But there we go. Let's have a quick look at the scores, because these are final scores now.
It's time for final scores now. Team zero got 160 points, which is very respectable... And I'm saying that to lessen the blow when we find out that team one thrashes you with 225 points. Please celebrate appropriately! \[applause\]
So there we go... Any surprises? What do we think? Which was the round? Jon, when you were saying that they missed out some answers, what were you thinking of?
**Jon Calhoun:** Oh, I just felt like half the answers people gave on that last one were ones I would have expected to at least show up a couple times... But it is hard when everybody chooses different words.
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah, that's it...
**Jon Calhoun:** But I did call it, that Katie and Rob were gonna have to carry me... Because I got nothing on that last round.
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah. It was good though, ain't it?
**Natalie Pistunovich:** That's alright. That's why you're a team.
**Jon Calhoun:** That teamwork. Sorry, Steve. You look upset.
**Mat Ryer:** How are you feeling, Steve, after...?
**Steve Francia:** I'm pretty broken-hearted. I thought we were gonna win. Even at that last round, I thought we had it. I was like, "We're gonna steal it."
**Natalie Pistunovich:** We were not efficient enough.
**Steve Francia:** Well, we weren't fun enough, that's really what it was.
