Supreme Championship On YouTube

[James Robinson]

Just been rummaging around and managed to find 4 videos from the original Supreme Championship from 1996.

I thought it might give pleasure to some of you guys out there.

Yeah, when I saw the Supreme Championship conundrums I wasn't really convinced PENETRANT was a real word either, much less the "intended" answer. Reminds me of a CoC game when the answer was clearly meant to be RELAPSING but the person guessed SPANGLIER instead.

Anyway, awesome finds JR Nice to see more of the second-greatest Countdown tournament of all time.

[Graeme Cole]

Not from the Supreme Championship, but how about this for conundrum controversy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KPGJXr8VHE#t=6m30s

He gave his answer as promptly as any other contestant would, and nobody would have known he'd changed his answer after buzzing had he not told Richard. Fair or not?

[Matt Morrison]

haha, awesome. Imagine being so brazen about it!

[Jon Corby]

haha, awesome. Imagine being so brazen about it!

We don't have to imagine it, it's right fucking there in the video you clot.

[Matt Morrison]

Oops, didn't see Graeme's link.

[Heather Styles]

Fair or not? Fair, in my opinion. He came up with the answer straight after buzzing, without hesitation, repetition, or deviation. Oops, wrong game show

[Gavin Chipper]

Didn't someone link to that a few days ago?
