Good luck in the next round.<br /><br />Thanks for clarifying that point David.<br /><br />AH, thanks Andrew - I'll be seeing if they can beat the curse of the sofa on Monday , then.<br /><br />DaveLondiniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871325359167581176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-80825673815965117032011-09-28T12:22:10.587-07:002011-09-28T12:22:10.587-07:00David - next week I'll be cheering for the Tra...David - next week I'll be cheering for the Trade Unionists when they take on the Rock and Rollers... if they do well, I'll claim it's all due to my intensive training schedule :-)Andrew B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12054400570279868608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-11274851064287351872011-09-28T07:57:23.563-07:002011-09-28T07:57:23.563-07:00Just to confirm, yes - we would've accepted fu...Just to confirm, yes - we would've accepted full stop, dot product or any other reasonable definition of "."<br /><br />I didn't put "(e.g.)" on the answer, which I usually do, because the line breaks looked horrible with it.davidbodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06069767281654752637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-66076896363808219602011-09-28T04:13:50.021-07:002011-09-28T04:13:50.021-07:00David - thanks for the write-up.

If SS-GB hadn't been our first question I might have gambled on the 5 and Jason actually got The Cook sequence just as I was asking for the third picture. That said, I think we would have got the Scottish football teams ... although nothing should take away from the Linguists on the buzzers, they were a lot sharper than we were. <br /><br />And this is my second write-up on LAM almost exactly a year since the first - http://lifeaftermastermind.blogspot.com/2010/10/mastermind-first-round-heat-724.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-51703325623403051412011-09-28T00:19:38.089-07:002011-09-28T00:19:38.089-07:00Hi dxdtdemon

OK, I may have got the scores a bit wrong through the last round - it was fast and furious, and I may well not have tracked it properly. Sue me ( actually please don't sue me. I have no money and nothing worth taking. ) Seriously I think that the final score is right.<br /><br />So - who's your friends who are up next week ?<br /><br />I considered saying something like that about the walls in the post, but then I thought - hey, its the 21st century - just because I don't know a great deal about perfume doesn't mean anything.Londiniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871325359167581176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-41430973918751345032011-09-27T15:13:34.757-07:002011-09-27T15:13:34.757-07:00"Match 7", surely, or my friends due to ..."Match 7", surely, or my friends due to appear in the last heat next week will be very disappointed :-) (And your account of the scores goes a bit haywire at the end).<br /><br />Tough walls, I thought - wonder if the men would have managed the football teams and the women the perfumery terms?<br /><br />A great fightback at the end by the Linguists, who I must admit I'd written off very early on.Andrew B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12054400570279868608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401280171563686515.post-40343375965543980172011-09-27T12:34:44.203-07:002011-09-27T12:34:44.203-07:00I was just curious if dot product would have also ...I was just curious if dot product would have also been acceptable on the math question in the what comes fourth round.dxdtdemonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17534247033439073645noreply@blogger.com
