N and then the letter S. Yell out your name.
Your name is your buzzer. Pronounce the answer correctly. You get five seconds after your ring in best out of twelve. The all time record is.
Nine by A. J. Sauce and Doe Young Park Smarties. I knew it. Here we go.
Number one of n S. Clue number one appears nearly fixed. Clue number two offers guidance. Clue number three will be Vega Clue number four is considered bright. Clue number five is.
Four hundred and thirty three light years away many North Star.
That's right, nice the north every ship down star. North Star gets Marnie on the board.
Nice job.
What will be Vega?
Yeah, that's the name of a star. It is Polaris now.
I didn't know that the North Star changes, but apparently over a long period of time, it eventually does.
It goes to Dallas, yep, eventually moves to Dallas. It's Polaris now. Eventually Vega thank you, which is the name of a street fighter character as well. Yeah, yes, Marty leads one to nothing. Here's number two of n s.
Clue number one requires intelligence. Clue number two stability is considered a good sign. Clue number three involves threats. Clue number four political.
Economicyyep, national security.
National security, and confident.
Marns is just tough to be tough man the zone. Marty has the first two. You can hit me whenever you want.
The North Star and national security gets her a tow to nothing lead.
Here's number by the way, how's this practice round going, Chad? So far, so good? Yeah, just this awful gets you're ready for the tournament this summer. Just blank.
Here's number three of NS. Clue number one part of a transition. Clue number two might.
Be super quiet. Clue number three.
Often has fewer distractions and supervision. Clue number four occurs in the dark. Chad yep night shift.
That's right.
Here we go, Chad night shift in Chadway on the board.
That is the night shift. There we go, Marts. You got some competitions.
Chad's on the board, all right, MARNI has two Chad Greenway with one hawk and sauce. You have to score, but there's nine items to go, plenty of time. Here's number four of NS. Clue number one features arrows. Clue number two vibrates, Marnie, Okay, Nintendo Switch.
That's what I I love it.
I don't even have one, by the way, I don't have that one.
In the future, but I vibrate bright well, I said, vibrates. You gorn O made me think you had no chance of having the right answer.
I thought you were gonna go for some joke. Marnie, Nintendo Switch is the answer. I would have put you fourth out of four in terms of likelihood of getting Nintendolue features arrows.
Because there's arrows on the controller in the keypad.
I my kids don't have one. I've truly never even held one in my hands. Oh man, and I am talking about a Nintendo switch for clarity in.
God, damn, Marns.
You never know.
Marns has three, Chad has one. Here's number five of n S. Clue number one popularized by a dead brit.
Clue number two takes time.
Clue number three involves generations. Clue number four includes adaptation, go for it, natural selection.
Yeah, that's great.
What is going on?
What is happening?
Locked in, stay in the moment.
I mean, I'm just saying, when the seatings come out this summer, you're gonna get pissed because you don't like those kind of pressure spots. Your seating is gonna be extremely high, and.
Then you're gonna have to face the goat back there at some point. I mean, he just he doesn't lose money. I know, Marty. Look at my coffee, my real quick. See what it says right there. I think it says champion just carry around.
He's got me with that as many times as well.
We're looking at my cup.
I know my place and I have zero delusions.
But I think do Young Park moved to Utah or something? So if you can't play, I.
Mean you might be the second seed.
I don't know what's going.
On, Okay, anyway, you might lose and move to Utah.
It's also possible I should have moved to Utah.
Shows up? Is it cold in there?
Yes? Yes?
Marti has four through the first five, Chad Greenway has one. Everybody's stole mathematically in this though. Here's number six of NS. Clue number one known for a trident. Clue number two the only easy day was yesterday. Clue number three, one of the words is an animal. Clue number four part of a team. Clue number five found on land in the air. Paul yep Navy seal. That's right, that's Navy seals. Sauce on the board, sweet Navy seals. All right, Martins,
somebody else got a point? How does that feel?
We're at halftime. Marnie has four, Sauce has one, Chad has won.
There's six items ago. Chris can still run the table and crush as well. Here's number seven of NS. Clue number one is extremely complex. Clue number two is one of eleven clue number three involve cylindrical bundles of fibers.
Yeah, why not?
Nervous system.
What what.
It mine?
Is electric? Right now?
It is working. There's no doubt it's working. My god, my lord.
Eleven nervous systems.
Eleven systems, eleven systems. It's one of them.
Makes sense now, Barnes, anytime somebody does this, I have to at least throw this out. There's a there's five to go and you have five. I mean, if you run the table, you break the record. If you get four of the last five, you tie the record. Uh, you have a what four point lead with five to go, So if you get any of the remaining points already, you are the winner.
Everybody calm down.
Marty in for the win.
On item eight, which is not something I say super often. Here's number eight of NS. Clue number one is a location or place. Clue number two could be close or very far. Clue number three is used to maximize fairness. M Clue number four has no huck yep.
Gees neutral site.
That's right. Good, there we go on the board. That is a neutral site. All right.
So with Chris getting that point, the situation is as clear as this Marnie, one of the other three has to get the remaining four to force overtime. Any other combination, and you're the winner because you have a four point lead with exactly four to go. So Chad needs all four, Chris needs all four, Sauce needs all four. You're going for the wind? You ready, okay? Number nine of n S. Clue number one could be sharp. Clue number two almost
exclusively black. Clue number three has four intersections. Clue number four constantly seen on social media.
Clue number five could be a pound all number sign.
That's right, that is a numberumber sign or a pound sign or a hashtag.
But that's a number sign.
Goodness, I have known it as hashtag for so long.
I forgot those other names.
What did we call it before we call it hashtag?
It's also a sharp for music. That was the first clue about it being showed up. Good clue. It makes sense when you go backwards. Yes, all right, Sauce.
So Marns, Chad, and Chris can still run up the scoreboard and get points, But Sauce, you need the last three to tie. Otherwise Marnie is the winner, and Marnie, you're now mathematically eliminated from breaking the record. So now you're just trying to win. Yeah, of course, Marne going for the wind sauce needs a last three for the tie. Here's number ten of NS clue number one is Latin. Clue number two.
Has a strong association with Christmas trees.
Clue number three this is one of ten. Clue number four known for lobsters. Hawk was first.
Sorry is it Nova Scotia?
That's right, that is correct, John marn He gets the victory.
Nova Scotia's point number two for Christopher.
Did you have a sauce? You had it eleven provinces or something like that.
This ten exactly, you have ten in Canada and Nova Scotia is one of the ten.
Let's go all.
All right, Marns is the winner, but the last two just for some points again, now, chat, this is truly now, this is practice reps.
Here we go, rep.
Here's number eleven of NS clue number one has files.
Marney nail salons, Right, I mean, what am I supposed to do get better clues?
Maybe things are nail salons. How did you get nail salon? Though? From files? That's so vague.
The first thing I thought it was it's not file.
It's not the file though a file cabin.
The first thing that came to mind was a nail file.
Yes, geez all right, last one. Marnie has six ringing Now yeah, why are you waiting so long? I'm gonna do clue one just one word at a time, and it just stopped me. Whenever you're done. Number twelve of n S. Clue number one.
Has a star, she's really falling off. Clue number two involves a couple of animals. Clue number three you might see.
One in public a couple of months out of the year. Clue number four.
Ye nativity scene.
So the tournament starts in the middle of July. Marny and Aj square off. I believe about the first week of October.
Will see then it's gonna buy just by their way through. Man locked in.
I don't know what just happened.
You in what's called the zone. I seen zone. It's gonna be in tomorrow. Marny with seven? How mean I have seven? You had one? I just want to make sure I knew that night Chris had two sauce head two man.
Mars.
Have you ever won in a game that AJ has played? Did you ever beat AJ has because I mean when you only won three or four times that entire era. Anyway, all your wins mostly I think you have like twenty something wins now most of them are in the last year and a half.
I don't know what happened.
Can you don't get them to square off like a regular season matchup before the playoffs?
Definitely, Ken, at some point we might just need to have a heads up all that, like we have with Sauce in AJ that one time. Maybe we just go heads up at some point. My gosh. Anyway, Mars, what happens now? Seven points and yet another victory for Marnie Gallander.
In Great Clips.
Let me go get my Audie because we got a calm down. If you would go ahead and tweet me tag great Clips, do that now through Sunday and one of you's is going to get chosen to receive free haircuts for an entire calendar year thanks to Great Clips. Great Clips, Salon, may it great and get it trimmed. I don't think and maybe AJ, maybe you can disagree with this. I don't think AJ gets nervous playing this game.
I think even if you keep winning until the tournament, I think when AJ sitting across me, I think the nerves would kick in for you. I just feel like I feel like that would be like, oh, can I really do this?
And again, I'm not delusional.
And the reason I get so genuinely excited is because I'm shocked that it comes. The answer jumped into my head and it might actually be correct.
Right like when I said, do you remember two vibration you go ooh like that.
Well, that one jumped into my head in a different way. I wonder why I'm just saying.
I don't sit here and think, oh, I might be one of the best.
I think I can beat Aj. I do not.
Time to remind you that you used to build a wall out of paper towels between you and I when we sat next week.
I forgot about that between me and Chad. I don't know why I do that build the wall.
I don't.
That's okay, Chad.
Do you feel like that was the practice you needed before the tournament?
That's who you wanted. You wanted a trial run. That was your trial run.
And I'm glad the NS is over, you know, because you can't You're not going to repeat it. Probably not a lot of combinations out there. I'm feeling pretty good. I mean I had I got a night shift. I didn't have one of the other elevens, not even close, didn't even have one of the words. And I freely admit that I don't know why how.
What was the one that you had and couldn't pull and then.
Make neutral site? Neutral site?
What were you stuck on or what did you have?
You knew what it was, but you.
Couldn't take a site? Yeah?
Yeah, yeah, so simple when you go backwards.
And you know the answer. You guys have ever been in Nova Scotia. I don't think. I have no reason, no reason. That seems like your territory, right, Yeah, you're a man of the land.
I am a man of the land out in Canada and go catch some lobsters and stuff hang out in the Atlantic Ocean.
Yeah, I don't know. Are they lobster? Touch it?
Do they have evergreens?
Is that a yeah?
I guess they're a giant exporter of Christmas trees? I guess, of course, Yeah, why not, there's a lot of them up there.
Trees in South Dakota.
No trees really, not in the Dakota's at all, just I mean west you know, Black Black Hills.
That's it.
Nothing but trees for as far as the eye can't eat trees in Davison County. That's I'm not joking.
