One concern I have about the new format is over how the declarations will work. As far as I see it, there are two options: A): The host asks each of the four players individually. B): The host says either "player one" or "player two" and they mention the length of their word to t...

To be fair, I assumed that your method was how you were supposed to play against Prune before this event too. Then Ben explained the other way just before the draw for the main event took place. Doesn't really matter too much, though, I suppose.

1. The raw score is calculated by assuming that unheard numbers solutions are correct
2. They are assumed to be incorrect?

George: GIAOUR (6)
Ita: LAUGH (5)
DC: GORILLA (7)
Score: 6–0 (max 7)
Ita starts with a five, but George has a six. DC get the max with GORILLA
