So during the game, the Payoff Point is 20.
Player A has 19 points.
Player B has 18 points.
Player C has 17 points, and is in control. As strategy suggests, (s)he picks a three point question, blocking out the other two players.
Now, i know that Player C answers the question unopposed, but how would either opponent regain control of the game? If Player C answers incorrectly, does that question then just become a toss up for control, or is there another way? I assume that Player C wouldn't be allowed to answer 3 pointers unopposed until kingdom come.
