Ab toh aur time lagaongi.

This time around you get no one's leaderboard! Use the hints I dropped the last 2 times to see if you can find at least 1 Moriarty!

BUT! First a surprise. This round, the eliminated participants also played the game and sent in their nominations. Once you send me your nominations, then I will combine the 2 sets of nominations and see if a Moriarty has been captured! If a Moriarty has indeed been captured, then contestants will get 200 bonus points!

Sherlocks you have to send me your individual nomination for 2 PEOPLE on who you think is a Moriarty.

There won't be any eliminations since it's the last round, unless the named person is a Moriarty. So if a Sherlock tops the nomination, they will still be in the running!

These nominations are due by Jan 23rd 11:50 PM IST. Note that I at least 10 minutes to review all the nominations and finalize the post, thus anything sent after 11:50 PM IST will not be counted.

A huge congrats to Sandhya who topped this round with a whopping 250 points and would have won this game if the Moriartys had been caught and/or hadn't murdered her.
