Discuss anything that happened in recent games. This is the place to post any words you got that beat Dictionary Corner, or numbers games that evaded Rachel.

Spoilers for Tuesday 4th September 2018 (Series 79, Prelim 49)

Post by Johnny Canuck »

After the letter D was put up in Round 8 (PLAUDIT round), am I right in thinking that Sam asked for "another" consonant and Rachel mistakenly picked an A from the vowel box? Or did I just mishear him saying "a vowel"?

Quite a close game, especially for so late in a run -- respect to both contestants here.

1st Numbers Alt.: (8 + 4) * (10 + 1)

ADROGATE to beat TRAGEDY.

4th Numbers Alt.: (9 + 6) * 25 + 5 * 4 - 2
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

Sam asked for a vowel after the D. Just had a look.
My 4th numbers AET: (25 + 4) x 6 x 2 + 9 x 5
Is that enough brackets? I'm not convinced, lol
