A contestant who buzzes + does not gives the correct answer gets no points -

while their opponent has the rest of the 30 seconds in which to find the answer

The 10 points conundrum round may decide who wins the whole game -

on the final round this is known as a CRUCIAL CONUNDRUM

If the scores are level after a Crucial Conundrum round -

we keep having extra Conundrum rounds until we get a winner
