OC questions I got right that the teams didn't: Sonny & Cher (I Got You Babe going backwards); spotted the South Park characters in the wall

I was surprised they missed the football scores question

Counting the vowels is such an obvious OC question but I missed that one
― nate woolls, Wednesday, 25 March 2020 06:04 (four years ago) link

Paxo being far too lenient in letting teams waste time discussing answers.

I think thats been a notable change over the last two or three series tbh
― ole uncle tiktok (darraghmac), Monday, 6 April 2020 19:50 (three years ago) link
Could be the editing, annoying tho.
― Kier today, Dom tomorrow (Noodle Vague), Monday, 6 April 2020 19:52 (three years ago) link
mind you it is bad with this team in particular
― ole uncle tiktok (darraghmac), Monday, 6 April 2020 19:52 (three years ago) link
Yeah if they weren't so honest-faced I'd almost suspect them of gamesmanship

Think there was a bug in the last Java question - the |= maybe should've been a != But I'd need another look.

arah it'll come out in uat sure
― ole uncle tiktok (darraghmac), Monday, 6 April 2020 21:41 (three years ago) link
It was a !=

I've just checked and it was. But the font was wack and the background lines and the faint glow of the letters made it difficult to distinguish.

The first 3 were easy enough, didn't get the 4th

Well spotted, Koogs.
I sent a picture of one of those screens to a programmer friend who said the programming was bad and very uneconomical.
I strongly agree with the claim above that the winning team spent too much time chattering about things in a way that amounted to incredibly annoying showing off.

i like seeing their though processs, how they narrow things down.
― koogs, Tuesday, 7 April 2020 10:34 (three years ago) link
narrowing down is fine if it is that
throwing in asides that are clearly not the straightest path to yr answer is a very unwinning habit
― ole uncle tiktok (darraghmac), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 10:36 (three years ago) link
yeah it's some class swot nonsense, also why do some people manage to confer barely audibly and some...not?
― Kier today, Dom tomorrow (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 10:37 (three years ago) link
just find them intrinsically not v likeable, unlike Durham and some of the other teams, so i'm probably overanalysing
― Kier today, Dom tomorrow (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 10:38 (three years ago) link
durham captain is the fella youd save from a frothing covid ward alright
― ole uncle tiktok (darraghmac), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 10:39 (three years ago) link
I strongly agree with both Darraghmac and N. Vague in this instance -- they (especially the really loud one in the middle) come across as obnoxious tossers, and it's hard to understand why they have to confer so loudly.
I don't remember the Durham captain.

hes good bit again a little performative
but seems thats just the trend idk
― ole uncle tiktok (darraghmac), Monday, 13 April 2020 20:24 (three years ago) link
You’re not the fucking captain, Brandon. But damn, you’re good. And I kinda dig the “not here to make friends” badge you always wear.
― mike t-diva, Monday, 13 April 2020 21:48 (three years ago) link
Not much of a match this week but hopefully the finals will be a good one. Two very good teams.
