Spoilers for Thursday March 29th 2012 (Series 66 Prelim 53)

Post by Jordan F »

Alison Shipman pulled it off again yesterday, giving her two wins so far, and with a couple more she could be a contender in the series final. Can she get number 3 today? Fiona is still in the corner, and I'm not exactly sure what we're learning from her this week, but I'm sure it's something.

James'll recap the night away with us later.

I made the 412 the easy way in the last numbers (4x100)+10+2 and was pleased with BONGOS until GABOONS was mentioend.
Alt middle numbers (50-(5/5))x(4-1).

I basically did the same for the last numbers, except that I did it the surely more intuitive way of 325+12 rather than 412-75.

I haven't seen her previous games but while Alison seems fairly solid on the letters, she's very weak on the numbers, so it's hard to see her going too far when there's likely to be a potential 30 points open to her opponent.

I quite liked ADENINE in that round actually. :)
