Re: Spoilers for Thursday, 29th May
am I not right in thinking that if this guy goes on to win all his games he'll have won game 7 as the last of the series? (I'm basing this on thinking the first quarter final is next thursday, you see)

Re: Spoilers for Thursday, 29th May
I read elsewhere on the forums that the finals begin on June 12th which, if correct, would leave 8 further shows after today.Michael Wallace wrote:am I not right in thinking that if this guy goes on to win all his games he'll have won game 7 as the last of the series?

Just realised that it's only Thursday today (not Friday), so that makes it 9 more preliminary games until the quarter-finals.Nick Wainwright wrote:I read elsewhere on the forums that the finals begin on June 12th which, if correct, would leave 8 further shows after today.Michael Wallace wrote:am I not right in thinking that if this guy goes on to win all his games he'll have won game 7 as the last of the series?

I was hoping for SAXATILE in round 2, but it seems to be Scrabble-only

Round 2 did have STAPELIA though, I think. Not that I know what they are...

The ODE defines STAPELIA as a succlent African plant with large star-shaped fleshy flowers that have bold markings and a fetid carrion-like smell, which attracts pollinating flies.Joe Denniss wrote:Round 2 did have STAPELIA though, I think. Not that I know what they are...
