Mystery Round 2 (2 pts each) Match the video game to the system it was released on.

  2. Kinect Star Wars
  3. Super Bombad Racing
  4. Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

Final Round: Dialogue (wager 0-40 points before hearing the question but if you're wrong, wager is subtracted). We entered with a 2 pt lead for 1st place with 120 points, so we bet 39 points to go for a win. Name ALL four characters who recite the final line of spoken dialogue (not counting R2-D2 or Chewbacca) of these four films:

  1. Episode II
  2. Episode III
  3. Episode V
  4. Episode VII

In the end NOBODY got all four of the final round correct so everyone had their wager subtracted. Luckily for us, none of the teams played low defensive wagers so despite our losing 39 points, we still ended up winning with 81 points for the night resulting in a first-place out of 21 teams. $150 victory for The Garbage Chute Flyboys! The second and third place teams won $75 and $25 respectively.

How well would you have done?
