I experimented a little by changing the Half-Time process.  When it became clear to me that failure was the result, I went back to my usual process.  It was best for the game; if I didn't make the change, the board would have had just a short number of entries past half-time.

I can see that, but 3 of 4 would might have been tense and fun for the second half. Otherwise some could have played differently from the beginning  ;)

Fair enough.  You would have handled it differently.

Maybe my question in post #14 was missed so I repeat it here: from Sammy's OP: "The 5 quartets ending up with the highest point totals will advance to the final round."
Five, this time?

My apologies.  That was a typo mistake - it's still the same old "3".
