The Chase [Axxle vs The Don]

[diginova]

Did you get it correct, and more importantly, did the Chaser?

Spoiler: Results / Question 2

The Don takes one step closer.

Here's the next question. Time to put it behind you and give a strong answer to get off the mark.

[JDGA]

Early days, early days. Though the questions aren't getting any less mean

[diginova]

Did you fare better this time?

Spoiler: Results / Question 3

Both of you got it right this time, so you're three steps ahead and three steps from home.

Here's the next question.

[diginova]

Here's the next question. (The animation above and to the right should now be synced, limiting the amount of spoiler tags)

Spoiler: Results

The Don takes another step closer to JDGA and is now two away.

[JDGA]

Beh, 50/50 on that one.

Hi JDGA!

[diginova]

Here's the next question. (The Chaser did not answer in time but picked up his prod, so he gets a strike.)

Spoiler: Results

Nobody moves.

[RichardGHP]

Sorry, but as I explained in NZWOF, it was my cake day the other day and I made myself take the day off from just about everything I should have been doing.

Can I ask, what is the point of a prod if you just lose the turn anyway?

I prod you after 24 and the deadline is 48... it's just a reminder.
Sorry about that... I checked for V/LA but didn't check for NZWOF.

[diginova]

Here's the next question. JDGA, the chaser's breathing down your neck!

Spoiler: Results

The Chaser closes the gap by 1.

[Axxle]

You can do it, Tel! There's nothing the chaser can do when you get the next 3 questions right.

[JDGA]

Hah, I wish... could be nice if I got a

tiny

bit more luck, though. Y'know. Just a bit. Or maybe a question I actually knew. To be fair there have been a couple of questions I

really

ought to have known, but then overthought and screwed them up anyway.

[diginova]

I am sorry, but you have been caught. Amanda was Spock's human mother, and Sarek was his Vulcan father.
You are unable to bring your £300 through to the Final Chase, and sadly we have to say goodbye to you for this episode.

Chaser, any final remarks?

[Espeonage]

DON'T WORRY. CHASER GONNA OFFER ME LIKE 100000000 and I'll take it and win.

[JDGA]

BEH. BEH I SAY.
1. The name was definitely Scandinavian, I probably ought to have gone Swedish but the Dutch do goddamn

everything

so I ran with that.
2. The other two names didn't sound white enough for 1939.
3. I see Shiraz wine every goddamn week, I've even read the description a few times, I

really

ought to have remembered that but I overthought it and didn't listen to my gut 'cause I'm an idiot.
4. Probably the most total-guess of them all, but I still overthought it way too much. (Plus I should have known the Greek word anyway, but that's another story)
5. Willow trees are HUGE but whatever ;_;
6. Well it obviously wasn't C, and I didn't think Spock would have a parent with a name as normal as Amanda. So oh well, gg, it was a good try I thought, also apparently the Chaser in this isn't going to be any less brutal than on the real show. I guess I'm impressed with that? I dunno SEE YOU NEXT GAME

[RichardGHP]

Chaser, any final remarks?

Just another win for New Zealand after the cricket yesterday.

[diginova]

McMenno

, it's now your turn to step up to the Cash Builder. As before, each correct answer is worth £1000, and you have (expired on 2015-03-26 01:11:30) remaining to give me your ten answers.

[McMenno]

1. Pass
2. Alien
3. Roosevelt
4. Uruguay
5. Roman
6. Wenen
7. Pass
8. The one with Jesus
9. Piano
10. Rice

[McMenno]

well I'm happy to have a history exam about the U.S. today

[diginova]

Were you confident in your answers? Let's see how you did.

---

And now it's time to bring back the Chaser and see what he thinks about your performance.

You're currently three steps ahead of the Chaser and four from home.
The Don, your offers please.

[RichardGHP]

Well, McMenno, I face something of a dilemma. On the one hand, four thousand pounds is about the least you can get without me totally castigating you. On the other, you clearly don't know your cuisine or music, two things which I hold dear. Plus, hedging your bets on "Roosevelt" without giving a first name might get past the adjudicators, but it doesn't fly with me.

If you want to chicken out as I suspect you might, I'll offer you

£1,000

.
But if you want to see what genius looks like up close,

£24,000

says you can't beat me.

[Cybele]

Holy trick question, the Ahnold pne really threw me.

[diginova]

Here are your offers. Talk it over with your team and then decide your starting position.
