Well.  I looked at the greater good. Happy

With PM being about 10/2 ahead, I though it important for the 'team' to win.

Didn't want to waste a question by guessing prematurely.  All we had to do was get it in 20.  No bonus points for getting it early.

There's no 'I' in team.

We're all in this together.
