Spoilers For Thursday July 22nd 2010
Thursday has arrived and David O'Flanagan remains in the chair after the very close game yesterday. The numbers games seem to have helped him cross the line in both of his games so far, but for how long will his luck last
I'll be around later with part 2 of this week's Robinson Recap double bill, which will also be my last for a few weeks, owing to the horse racing.
Oh well.

I'm excited about today's episode as someone I have known for a long time is the challenger. He is also an apterite. I will say no more.

Re: Spoilers For Thursday July 22nd 2010
Yeah, it's on in an hour for those of you who have a TV in your vicinity, but for me, I have to wait until at least 6pm, probably nearer 7pm, before I can watch it, so the word torture springs to mind.Kirk Bevins wrote:I love it how you're desperate to know even though it'll be on in an hour.

Nice one Tom. Disposed of a solid competitor with consummate ease. Good luck for the next 7. Hopefully the blue shirt will be on tomorrow's show

Nice solid performance, Tom, well done. Just remember to write down your numbers solution. Oh, and don't forget to look for the buzzer [/sudbery].

Yep, a convincing win, well done mate. I expected you to be more nervous. Keep it up (retrospectively).

Re: Spoilers For Thursday July 22nd 2010
Did anyone get 1st numbers game? I'm not good at maths, but think this may be right:
9-5 = 4 x 8 = 32 x 10 = 320 + 6 = 326 x 3 = 978
Not sure if this right though, or if I copied the numbers down right. Think it was 5, 3, 10, 6, 8 & 9 (target 978)
9-5 = 4 x 8 = 32 x 10 = 320 + 6 = 326 x 3 = 978

A convincing debut, Tom; well played.
(5-3)*(6*8*10-9) = 978 as an alternative method for R4.

Re: Spoilers For Thursday July 22nd 2010
WTG Tom, delighted you won, was really rooting for you (hadn't warmed much to your opponent over the last few days)
I clean forgot you were on today so it was a pleasant surprise!
(BTW I still can't see the 'really easy' 979 that Jeff (and presumably you Tom?) had)

Re: Spoilers For Thursday July 22nd 2010
Fair point, but looking at it as (11 x 9 x 10) - 11, all the numbers are obvious, hence Jeff's offer of his "really easy" 979, I guess. It was worth it for Rachel's put-down.Jon Corby wrote:Oh, okay.
