too many answers to try and do....however at the beginning you didn't say that the answers couldn't be looked up...and therefore, the person who has the best answer so far....how could they be cheating? to be fair, if they have all the answer right and were the first one, you therefore have to give them the 10 points. you wouldn't want to be in their position and have the point go to someone else would you??
think about it.
