EGOSURFED would make a good series final conundrum IMO.jasoncullen wrote:Indeed I did . Thats probably why I found it easy to spotJoseph Bolas wrote:You've used EGOSURFED in a conundrum alphabet .jasoncullen wrote:EGOSURF

Re: Spoilers for Tuesday 17th June 2008
In that last round I would have erroneously had a try at HOMELIFE. Oh well its not in!

Re: Spoilers for Tuesday 17th June 2008
I'm surprised OPENEST (round 6) isnt in the ODE (or is that a Countmax error?)

Re: Spoilers for Tuesday 17th June 2008
That's 4/4 for my predictions then, my final three are
DOD over Jonathan
Richard over Peter
DOD over Richard.
Martin
DOD over Jonathan
Richard over Peter
DOD over Richard.

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

Re: Spoilers for Tuesday 17th June 2008
I just wanted to post a brilliant coincidence. Both I and Jonathan Coles had 647 points after 7 games, on our eighth game we both got 99 and in the quarter-final we both got 101 meaning that through 9 games we have exactly the same points total (also after 7 and 8 games). So I just need him to get less than 86 tomorrow and I can beat him on points. Ha ! (lol)

Re: Spoilers for Tuesday 17th June 2008
Just seen the third and fourth quarter-finals back-to-back; Richard was solid, but I was impressed by Jonathan - he was superb until round 9 (he'd've been 11 points ahead against me at that point, after I'd missed the first numbers game and PENTODES), but he then went off the boil, missing MEDIATORS and TOENAILS which both come up a lot, as well as those two numbers games. If he can play for the whole game against David as he did in the first eight rounds here, and can cut out the silly mistakes, he'll have a real chance, though I still expect David to go through (especially if he gets the two numbers choices).
Overall, I thought the other three semi-finalists have been solid and had perhaps one really good spot each (Peter's POIGNANT, Richard's OXIDANTS, Jonathan's PENTODES), but none of them saw anything like NORTENA or TZARINA. David a strong favourite to win the series, especially as he has a clear edge on the numbers; and I think he'll have a harder time in the semi than he does in the Final. Looking forward to it anyway...
