Herm.
Can we close a question with an accepted answer as a duplicate of one that's accepted only by comment?
The latter question is better; it has more details and fewer incorrect details.

@Spencer Nah, there were too many things wrong. For example I missed on first read that the question specifically said 4 couples instead of the 6 people in D:V.
