Isso aconteceu algumas vezes - eles fazem uma pergunta extra de vogais apenas para os capitães da equipe. A regra é mencionada na página da Wikipédia para o programa:
If teams are tied, then a single sudden-death puzzle is given to the captains of each team. If a captain buzzes in first and gives the correct answer then their team wins, but an incorrect answer automatically forfeits the game. Although no category is officially given they make reference to their own role as sudden-death questions. Examples are "So Long and Thanks for All the Fish", "To the Victor, the Spoils" and "Winner Stays On".
