Discuss anything that happened in recent games. This is the place to post any words you got that beat Dictionary Corner, or numbers games that evaded Rachel.

Spoilers for Thursday 24 March 2016 (Series 74, Prelim 40)

Post by Johnny Canuck »

In this of the week, two new challengers are making their debuts following Conrad Teixeira's induction into the 800 Club. Will they be able to live up to the excellent standards of the Series 74 finalists we have seen so far? Today is the day we start to find out. Join Tracey later on for the answer.
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

(75-6-100/25/4)*10 (R6 numbers, before Rachel if she gets it)
Possibly the first contestant to accelerate with a mic clipped...

Wonder if that's the first-ever max word that contained four copies of the same letter. Greem?

This also has to have been the closest game ever that didn't go to a crucial. The margin was under 10 points in every round EXCEPT the one where that actually mattered!

Including the E in the next round, we had 5 in a row out of the vowel box. Is that a record?
