Regeff, that’s great I’ll look out for your name. One of the neat features is that you don’t get to see other setters’ clues until voting starts and you don’t see the names of setters until all votes are in. The voting system is a bit like our WPR except you have 15 votes (if I recall correctly).

Back to today, we currently have a tie for first place with 4 votes remaining …

Congrats SS and thanks jono.

[I watched a PopMaster TV earlier in the week where a contestant didn't rrecognise (or couldn't name) Smoke on the water. I thought everyone knew that - certainly someone appearing on PopMaster should!]
