Default Re: IQ Question [Attn: Sklansky]

For the combined effort score to be lower than the highest individual score, the dumber participants would somehow have to convince the smartest one to change his answer on a question to something he knows isn't right. The way to make sure this doesn't happen would be to grant the known smartest individual final veto over each final answer. That way he could use the combined efforts on questions he might be inclined to make a mistake on, but would never allow what was obviously correct to him be overruled.
