Aaron Uno and Aaron Dos were pissed at Aaron Tres for skipping out on doing any math for this doubleheader. They're also pissed he didn't offer to get the two of them any snacks. Such is life. As for said math, out of everything that happened, it turns out there was only one winner overall today. That winner is thelast42, who scored 3,000 for Game 1. For Game 2, it was another pointstravaganza as four people tied with 4,000 points. Caitlin, Billy W, Yankees199, and Q-TDSK were those four PSAers.
