Here we are, at the moment of truth.

Today, we find out if our very own Jayne Wisniewski will become the first woman since Cate Henderson back in Series 60, would you believe , to become an octochamp.

Let's see if I can make it simple for you all.

Scenario 1: JAYNE LOSES - She stays in 5th place.

Scenario 2: JAYNE WINS WITH A SCORE OF 83 OR LESS - She stays in 5th place.

Scenario 3: JAYNE WINS WITH A SCORE OF BETWEEN 84 & 100 - She moves up to 4th place.

Scenario 4: JAYNE WINS WITH A SCORE OF MORE THAN 101 - She moves up to 3rd place.

Glad to be of assistance.

Liam will fill you in later.

What are the scenarii (which is a new plural of scenario I just invented) that see her taking #2 and #1 seed, and why have you left them out you racist?

Well, since James isn't willing going to help out Corby here it seems, I"ll do the task.

206 points or more will get her the number 2 seed, and 217 or more will get her the number 1. As to why James would conceal this information from Corby, I can think of 3 options.

A. The spirits of Huddersfield told him not too in exchange for a shot at their greatest season ever.

B. He was not allowed to in the contract to make that "The Recapper" movie that was in one of the spoiler threads awhile back.

C. He's been drinking and forgot that information in the hangover.

Whatever one you think is the most reasonable, that would be my guess.

D. He totally hates Corby.

D.

E. He doesn't think there is any possibility of her being able to reach the scores needed because she's a woman, which makes him a racist.

E.

Probably with some of D thrown in too.

F. Undoing screws on a super stiff wooden crate for an unsightly long hour and a half have taken me away from my beloved computer screen.

G. With the highest ever max being in the 170's, I thought "200's, probably not......."

H. Too busy thinking how many goals Town will slot past Bradford in the JPT tonight.

P.S. I hope Jayne's winning right now.

It seems that Susie's been sneaking a look at the new Chambers dictionary's "list of 43 words with pleasing sounds"

Well done, Jayne, on becoming an octochamp.

Congratulations Jayne! See you at the finals, all being well.

Jayne was good today and all in all, deserves octo status. Disappointing tho that she is ranked behind Carl, who didn't play as well as Jayne in my opinion

Personally, seduces in rd 1 and elegant in round 6, which I'd like to think would be followed up by a cheeky wink at Rachel if I got those as a contestant.
Pretty miffed I missed sonatas and appose which are words I tend to get on apto, not to mention me also missing cabinets and waistline.

Well done Jayne.


edit: I did not get 'elegant' in a numbers round.

Really? Aside from the shouts of "cheat" I thought Carl was pretty damn good. Especially (but not at all exclusively) because he isn't an apterite.

How can you be so sure? Maybe he plays under a pseudonym like 'Michael Wallace'.

Congrats Jayne on octochampdom, very well deserved in my opinion. A female octochamp has been long overdue so I'm glad she did it.

My performance was average today. Got GENRAL in round 6, SONATAS in round 7, as well as the conundrum, but somehow missed CABINETS having found CABINS.

Very well done Jayne, a top notch run.

Well done Jayne, saw two of your shows recorded (5th and 6th) and thought then you would make it all the way. Delighted you have; good luck in the finals.

Congratulations to Jayne. Great run.

Woohoo! Congratulations Jayne. See you at the finals.

Congratulations Jayne. Job well done!!!

Well done Jayne, good luck for the finals.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I look forward to the finals and to meeting up with you all. In the meantime must practice conundrums!

Yeah congratulations Jayne, a very good run with some excellent spots.

Nicely done, Jayne. Very well done again today.

Slightly appropriate that the run of octochamps beginning their runs on a Tuesday is ended by a run that finishes on a Tuesday.

DEMOING in round 2, RUDERAL in round 3 and GENERAL in round 6.

A true LOL moment for me. Given our results so far this season, I never expected this. Up the Bantams!

Also - well done Jayne on becoming an Octochamp.
