Merv never seemed to worry if there was a tie, since "Jeopardy!" and
"Wheel" had co-champions for significant portions of their run.  When
"Wheel" started the bonus round, they went to a tiebreaker of the people
tied playing another puzzle similar to the speedup round, with the first to
solve declared the winner.  It's been a while since the last tie, but I
suspect today they would do a tossup as the tiebreaker.
