Spoilers for Thursday 13th November

Hi-de-li-Ho spoilerinhos.

Martin's 8th game today. A score of 95 (Howard reliably informs us) or more from Martin will nab him No 1 seed from Charlie boy, and will certainly see us all faint before we can even open our eyes!

[John Douglas]

R3 alts: ARBITER or RETREAT, both for 7.

[John Brackstone]

arbiter and rarebit for equallers

I didn't think Des' joke about shooting the last 6 was very funny.

[Ben Hunter]

STORIATED, what a lovely word.

[Ben Hunter]

PAISAN, brilliant!

[Ben Hunter]

2nd numbers alternative

100 x (10 - 4 + 1) - (3 x 5) = 685

Also, this M&S advert makes me realise how much better some people's lives are than mine.

R8: I hesitate to mention it, but TOILET was also there for 6 (equaller).

[Ben Hunter]

OATZ

[Ben Hunter]

The Bishop needs just 20 points now to steal the number one seed. These low maximums aren't helping though, maybe Charlie shuffled the deck?

[Joseph Bolas]

Well done to Martin for becoming and Octochamp and getting #2 seed

[John Douglas]

Well done Martin but bad luck on not quite beating Charlie's total!

[Ben Hunter]

And commiserations for missing out on the #1 seed .

[Thomas Cappleman]

Alternative for last numbers game (I've only just watched it):

(100/2-1)*(10+2)-9=579

And this was the first game where I actually managed to beat Martin while playing along (excluding when I rewatched my own game)

Amazingly this was the closest game between me and Martin. I had a disastrous game, I mean it was terrible. Quality spots from Martin meant I was 23-0 down but thanks to getting STORIATED, PAISAN, the hard 579 and getting the crucial conundrum straight away I managed to scrape home with a victory, 92-78, my lowest score since I started keeping records at the beginning of September. Nice one Martin.
