I think AIOLI was there too, if it wasn't mentioned by DC :x

EDIT: But it doesn't beat JaCu's pot :lol:

EDIT 2: Man I don't believe it, Peter only won 6 games :|. But hes definitely coming back for the finals :D. Remind me again now, who is at the bottom of the seed list :P.

EDIT 3: Did anyone notice the woman in the audience who was checking out the time on her watch when the genlteman got the easy conundrum SLINKIEST :lol:.

I'm not that surprised Peter lost although he looked pretty good in his first game, he hasn't looked as good since. I'm not sure if he ever got a score over 100 did he? I think he's probably beaten Ben Hanks on points which is bad news for Ben - there are just enough shows left so that he can get knocked off the bottom of the leaderboard and oh well done Jason C. but I think you might get knocked off as well. I think there are now 23 shows left before the first QF now, and someone needs to win five, or possibly 4 depending on the points total.

Actually looking at the Corral Peter got one score over 100, which was 103.

DC beaters - TALIPOT which has been mentioned, which I wasn't sure of, and HARLOT which I was sure of, but is not actually the max.

If you cut a gandiseeg in half, do you get two gandiseegs or two halves of a gandiseeg?

Round 10. I also went for the method used by Jason and Joseph. It seemed more obvious than Carol's way.

What surprised me was that she made a big thing of having only even numbers, apart from the 75, and that you needed to make an odd number out of them, and then she went ahead and made two odd numbers.

I've just realised that this is probably a first for me. I think it's the only time I've beaten a contestant on three occasions when playing at home. And so far, I've only watched three of Peter's shows - the last three.
