Who Won?

In order to determine who won it is necessary to define the term “winner.” Is it the team that won the most points? Or is it the team that tried the hardest and gave the best answers? A traditional definition of the term would involve both or either of these two requirements. However, in light of the game’s postmodernism I believe that there were no winners. No matter how one tries to define the term “winner” it will still be a “thing” and that “thing” can very well be applied to every person that participated in the game. (Thank you Toast) This demonstrates that words have no meaning save that which we give them, and as "winner" remains undefined in game terms there can not be one.

My own personal belief outside of the assignment is that the Tails team won because we had more points.
