Spoilers for Thur 18 June 2009 [Series 60- 2nd SF]
Has everyone got their breath back after yesterday? Let's hope the excitement will be maintained in the 2nd semi final.
***********************************
Hamish slowly reclined into his chair, at a 45 degree angle,
His wild and pure white hair, was all in a tangle,
Young Jimmy tried to remain cool,
As he waited for the duel,
Just who will win the wrangle, in the final sector of this quadrangle?
(p.s. My font colours have reappeared)

I think it was about 120%. I really, really wanted Jimmy to win (because Jimmy vs Kirk had been my dream final from the first day of the series) and I knew that, although Jimmy was much stronger, Hamish was capable of moments of absolute brilliance that could really turn the game on its head. But it was slightly tempered by the come-down from the previous game which had ruined about four pairs of my best underpants.

I'm actually massively disappointed with the editing at the end of that segment; the look of absolute revulsion on Susie's face (in the studio) when he said it had come from Hamish's pocket was priceless.

Chemistry related mass noun, think Susie would allow it? I see it's valid on Apterous, though it's not in my version of Jimdic (which I thought was up to date). If valid then the max for this game must be very high indeed.Charlie Reams wrote:PROPANOLS in round 1. (C) Craig Beevers 2009.

I seem to remember Hamish's final words lasting longer than that, though there was a big edit so maybe it got lost.

Does Hamish not get anything for making the semi-finals? Finalists always used to get some sort of special memento, (a pen or something IIRC), but Jeff never mentioned anything. Seems a bit harsh that someone making the semis of a series gets nothing more than any random person that won 1 show, even if the prestige is far more important?

Re: Spoilers for Thur 18 June 2009 [Series 60- 2nd SF]
Well done Jimmy - great game and excellent spot for REEDLINGS (I missed that but Ben Hunter who was sat next to me got it). I'm sure you'll give your best against Kirk.
Well done also to Hamish - what a great character. I was talking to him afterwards with a group of people in the beer garden area. Part of the conversation went like this:
PJ - "Don't take this the wrong way Hamish ............ but when was the last time you had your hair cut?
HW (In a deep Scottish brogue and with a stare that could kill) - "When was the last time YOU had your hair cut?"
PJ (Stroking the bristles) - "I had the clippers out this morning actually".
A great bloke and it's not often you get a contestant who's as laid back as Hamish. He made great viewing.

Well you can have two types of propanol:Simon Myers wrote:Chemistry related mass noun, think Susie would allow it? I see it's valid on Apterous, though it's not in my version of Jimdic (which I thought was up to date). If valid then the max for this game must be very high indeed.Charlie Reams wrote:PROPANOLS in round 1. (C) Craig Beevers 2009.
Propan-1-ol CH3CH2CH2OH
and
Propan-2-ol CH3CHOHCH3
Still not entirely convinced though, but if it were valid that means a 5 niner game with a 164 Max!
Also congrats Jimmy. In the final! What will you do with the grand?

Re: Spoilers for Thur 18 June 2009 [Series 60- 2nd SF]
I can refer that question upwards but I think Susie's decision was influenced by my drawing attention to the definition which begins "Each of two...", to me strongly suggesting that talking of the two propanols is perfectly sensible. BUTANOLS might then be allowed on the same basis, whereas METHANOLS not so much. This seems like a pretty reasonable, and consistent, basis for making these decisions.JimBentley wrote:Edit: Just seen Charlie's latest post, so I'll add it.

Another alternative for 3rd numbers:
9 x 100 = 900
(10 + 1 + 6) x 2 = 34
900 - 34 = 866
9 x 100 = 900
(10 + 1 + 6) x 2 = 34
900 - 34 = 866

Congrats on the win Jimmy. You seemed pretty nervous, and no wonder when your opponent is prone to moments of brilliancy. But you spotted some nice words when it mattered. Good luck in the final, am looking forward to it.
Losing quarter-finalists and semi-finalists get a glass trophy saying 'Series 61 Finalist' (unless they're in a different series of course). So there is a difference between winning one game and winning enough to make the quarters, but no difference between losing in the quarters and the semis (or at least I don't think there is).Andrew Hulme wrote:Does Hamish not get anything for making the semi-finals?

Re: Spoilers for Thur 18 June 2009 [Series 60- 2nd SF]
I was looking forward to seeing today's game again for several reasons...
Hamish had produced his bag of what appeared to be extra strong mints just before the game was due to start and plonked them on the desk in front of him, resulting in a stern message from the gallery (relayed via Jay the floor manager) to put them somewhere out of camera shot. Just as he was putting them in his pocket, Dr Phil asked if he could have one - and then seamlessly incorporated it into the punchline of his act. Sheer genius.
GAVOTTES was my best spot of the finals - I waved my piece of paper excitedly at Charlie, who pointed languidly at the same word written on his own pad.
The last numbers round caused a bit of a headache in the gallery, a long delay in recording (and to a much needed tea break - it was swelteringly hot in the studio) and a tricky retake. It was only after both players had given their solutions and the game had progressed to the conundrum (it may even have been after the conundrum - can anyone else remember?) that someone spotted that Hamish's solution was invalid as he'd used the 9 twice. It wasn't just the declarations that had to be reshot but also Jeff's subsequent comments about the scores, the incorrect shots of the score readouts etc. However, it's a tribute to the people in the gallery and to the editor that the whole thing looks seamless in the final cut.

BUTANOLS would be ok, as there's butan-1-ol and butan-2-ol; but there's only one isomer of each of methanol, methanal and ethanal so they should be mass nouns.
