Spoilers for 22nd January 2018

Post by Tom S »

Very good play by Chris today, who is certainly octo-champ material, and the best player we've seen this year, I do doubt as to whether he will be unseated for a while. Terry was consistent enough on the letters, but Chris was on good form today. Admittedly, I lost a few points to him on 2 longer words (BEMUSED to my DEMISE, and THUNDERS to my TRASHED) and 1 invalid word- LEDGING (which was to my surprise, admittedly).
My scores for today:
Me:98-66 (Chris)
Me:111-41 (Terry).

I got DELLING...Intel's Dell but sadly not to be...UNSPREADS for a 9 in R12 though I got UNEARTHS.

Also, did anyone notice the credits now end much earlier than they used to? I think they started doing this about two or three episodes back?

I was pretty pleased with my 122 today. DC only beat me once (ORDAIN) - I think the DC score was 123.

UNTHREADS to beat THUNDERS

Wish they'd start picking more vowels, mind...that last round was screaming for ATOMISED...

I was screaming for an I in R4 for SEALPOINT. But some are just like that. Left UNTRASHED in the UNTHREADS round so a good false anagram to remember.
