There's a reason this show has been on so long.

I'll never quit watching. Hopefully, you won't either.

If you want an easy win in the BR, a really random and easy ITK will certainly do it. Any vowel will do on that one tbh. Puzzle writing was pretty solid all the way around tonight, but there’s one other thing….

ON THE MAP?!?!?

If you wondered why I didn't do this recap last night, the special CWoF airing was of greater importance.

Nate was the best player in this otherwise slow episode, as he was the only person to not commit any baffling misplays.

BR: Aw man, I was hoping he'd pick On the Map. Easy enough from the RSTLNE and thank goodness he called the I.

Hi! Nate (from tonight’s episode) here. It was a dream come true to be on the show and even more so to have it turn out the way it did. Thanks a bunch for your recap - and thanks for everything y’all do to keep this site going!

Welcome, Nate!

You were pretty dominant despite the slough of BANKRUPTS that struck you and your opponents. Similar to Lauren from the previous game, I thought the Bonus Round would be hard for you with just an I up there. But once again, I was proven wrong. 👍🏾

I’m not sure why they edited out Kara’s first spin. Pat calling on Paula instead of her when she rang in during the last Triple Toss-Up puzzle was interesting. As for Paula… it just wasn’t her night. (But I’m not sure where she thought the Y would go in the first round.)

No wonder I couldn’t get IN CLASS in the first Toss-Up – I’ve never done that activity. And I guess “blue” means “colorful” now? Just kidding.

My rating: 6

Enjoy your winnings, Nate!
