Spoilers for Friday October 25th 2013 (S69 P78)

Post by Jordan F »

As we wrap up the week, Bradley Cates is on 5 wins, and a possible 6th could be coming. As long as he scores at least 50 points, he will surpass Abdirizak Hirsi and move into the top 8 as of now. He would need 96 points or a win to surpass Zarte Siempre, and if he does win, he will more than likely overtake Gemma Church for number 6 as well. Can he get there?

Never seen HERSTORY before in my life, fair play to Bradley there.

One of the best non-apterous contestants ever, you have to feel.

I think I may have come across HERSTORY vaguely but I was miles away from it. I'd say Bradley's the best non-apterous contestant since the start of Series 59 when apterous was formed. I certainly can't think of anyone better.

Indeed, Bradley is a brilliant non-Apterite, he does have some weaknesses in odd numbers games, and isn't super fast at conundrums, but with his amazing word knowledge, he's definitely one to watch in the finals, should he get there.............. 8-)

1st Numbers Alt.: (3 x 3 x 100) + (4 x 10) + 8 = 948
2nd Numbers Alt.: ((25 + 2) x (10 + 8 + 6)) - 3 = 645

LEGIONS in round 1 and PARIAH in round 5.

I played pretty poorly today, but I DID get HERSTORY, so chuffed with that ^_^
Possibly the first contestant to accelerate with a mic clipped...

Just flicking through the recaps and this jumped out at me. I wouldn't even be sure how to pronounce the word or begin to guess its definition. Impressive.
