Well unfortunately Team AMP was eliminated on Sunday evening, but not without drama. Everyone was under the impression that the week ended at Midnight EST. We were under that impression because the commish had actually posted it. Other teams were all of this belief as well. The question was asked numerous times and all answers pointed to Midnight EST.
We as a team planned out to play a certain amount of quick score games about an hour or so before the close, but we came to find out that the league ended at Midnight GMT (which was actually 5 hours earlier than we thought.) We wound up eliminated by only a couple of hundred points. All the commish could say was “well, I live in GMT, it’s all I deal with, but sometimes I confuse it with EST.” Really? That’s probably the poorest lie I’ve ever heard…I guess after so many fly by the seat of your pants rule changes, I’m sort of glad to be gone.
My hat goes off to Team Amp:

Thanks guys, you’ve all been great and I’m glad to have made new friendships and I look forward to seeing you all on XBox Live!
For the record, I scored 13,130 points during the 6 weeks of competition (although week 5 was a non-elimination week and we all took it easy). I’m very happy with that number as my original goal was to average 2000 points per week.
