Team 2 did, indeed, drop the ball in the wee hours, (I actually slept last night, drat it) which brings the standings back to a tie:

Team 1: :)😃 😃  
Team 2: :)😃 😃

In Roman Number Smiley Syntax, that means 19 points for each team. 😃

Team 1? Who’s awake to give us our next theme/word?

I think **TJdude825** scored a point for team 2, not team 1.
