๐ฎ The Crystal Ball
The great misjudgement
5 out of 7 teams predicted Route 12 (Callum & Colleen) would come last including themselves. They finished 6th. Not a bad effort to be fair!!
Super cringe
Jay & Max predicted themselves as the #1 scoring team. They finished last.
The drunk oracle
3 teams thought Ryan would be the most drunk. Only Route 1 correctly identified Jay. Well done to them!
Time goes by so slowly when you're having fun
Brighton arrival guesses ranged from 9:20 PM to 11:43 PM. Route 2 was closest at 23:43. Actual arrival: ~11 PM. Only 2 hours late lol...
The complete shithole
All teams ranked the Hassocks pub as the worst, which is the CORRECT answer. Rare moment of unanimity from the group.
The ones who JUST knew
Only Route 6 (Suzy & Alice) correctly predicted Route 5 would win. Four teams backed Jim & Ryan, one backed Route 7, and Jay & Max backed themselves.
So long farewell
Every single person predicted they’d make it to Brighton. Unfortunately one person had to leave early, we were close though!!
Nobody could foresee this
Not a single team predicted Route 49 would score the fewest points. The vom completely fucked them.
โจ Memorable Moments
๐คฎ
The Vom
Route 49 suffered the single biggest penalty in Ghameslink history. Absolutely horrendous,vile,disgusting etc tbh.
−100 pts

The Eco Fine
Route 7 were caught littering. Who the fuck is littering in this day and age honestly???
−10 pts
๐งฉ
Crossword Supremacy
Routes 1 & 7 both scored 157 points on the crossword alone—more than Route 49’s entire total. The pen is mightier than the vom.
๐จ

Route 6 earned 20 bonus points for designing the pint glass at the Haywards Heath pub. Big up Suz!!!.
