Everyone's going to watch this back and think I'm stupid,
and it is partially true, but it's only 30% studipidity
and 70% pressure.
Did you just say stupididity...?
Exactly! Right! See, it's happening already, guys.
Let's do this!
Welcome back to Game On, I'm Tom Scott.
I'm David Bodycombe.
And this is an elimination match.
One of these players is going through to the final,
one of them is going home,
and it's a grudge match, really!
It's a repeat of round 1. Steven Bridges vs Emma Blackery.
Last time, Steven took it in rock-paper-scissors,
it was all about reading your opponent,
it was all about physical dexterity.
What've we got this time?
Well, it's a death match, whoever loses this goes home.
And it's a game I've invented called Quiz Buzz.
Oh, boy. Okay. This is general knowledge and... mental arithmetic.
Yes. So it's just like the schoolyard game of Fizz Buzz,
but instead of saying 'fizz' and 'buzz' to replace certain numbers,
you have to say lists of quiz answers.
You'll get the hang of it, you'll follow it.
First one to give an incorrect response
or not answer within 5 seconds loses that point.
We're playing the first to win three lists.
"Okay, so players, this is Round 1.
"And I want you to replace every multiple of 5 with a state of the USA
"and every multiple of 11 with a James Bond film."
(It's those James Bond ones. I don't know any.)
Ready? Yep.
Rock paper scissors to start...
Okay. I will go second.
Okay. 1.
2.
3...
4.
New York.
6.
7...
8.
9.
10.
[BUZZ] No! Ten's wrong.
10's a multiple of 5.
-- Ohh! No! -- There we go.
-- I didn't think of that. -- Just didn't see it.
People watching this back are going to go, "ohh, she didn't..."
but it's just a different story when you're here.
I'm going to look like such a pleb now!
The pressure just messes with you.
I was thinking 5, and you think 11, so you think odd numbers.
Maybe going first wasn't such a good idea!
Going first means you're saying the odd numbers
'cos all the questions will be on odd numbers
otherwise the same person's always saying them
so going first means you get the easy ones straight off
and your opponent's got to remember the ×2s.
Yes, but it also means you're in the game earlier.
Yeah. I didn't realise why she was buzzed there either.
I just didn't see it.
I can't think of any elements!
Obviously I can think of some, but not enough.
1.
2.
Boron.
4.
5.
-- Iron? -- Just play boron early on!
7.
8.
Beryllium.
Go with the obvious ones(!)
Er, 10.
11.
12.
[BUZZ] No! No, that's wrong.
Multiple of 3!
-- Oh! Damn! -- Yes!
I love the look on his face, just... "what?"
You're just naming things I've never heard of!
Grab the easy ones early on, though, 'cos then he can't use them.
Yeah, you should definitely grab oxygen, or helium, early...
I would've done now, but...
Yeah, for some reason my brain was stuck on metals.
I don't think that was the problem!
I think basic factorisation was the problem(!)
They were quite intimidating, though.
They were quite good intimidation methods.
I was thinking of frickin' planets! I was like, Pluto...nium?
Is Plutonium a thing on the... right, okay.
Just for the record, Pluto is not a planet.
We all know in our hearts that we feel like it is a planet.
-- We know it's a planet. -- It's just not big enough to be...
Would you not call a small dog a dog because it's small? Come on guys.
What? They definitely have different properties, it's not just a miniature dog!
The players don't see what's on screen, by the way,
they just have to remember this.
Do we look sporty(?)

Revelations.
8.
-- Er, London. -- He remembered.
10.

Luke.

16.
17.
Braz... Rio?
Yep! She nearly said Brazil there, which wouldn't have been right,
but we'll allow it.
19?
20...?
-- Er... John! -- Just! Just in time!
22.
23.
24.
25.
26.
27.
No! [BUZZ] That should have been an Olympic city.
Damn! 9, 18, 27!
Oh, I am so glad!
So that is 2-1 to Emma, so it's match point for her.
I want to make it known that I really despise ABBA.
Okay. 1.
2.
3.
4.
Cameron.
Er, 6!
7.
8.
Gimme Gimme Gimme.
Erm, Blair.
11.
12.
13.
14.
Attlee.
16.
17.
Money Money Money.
Brown.
[BUZZ] No! 19's prime!
Oh, no!
Prime numbers are always safe...
I studied politics. I would've done quite well with the prime ministers.
I was running low.
So that is 2-2. It's match point for both of them.
Whoever wins this one is through to the final,
whoever loses is out of the game. -- Yep.
-- On the table! -- Okay. Okay. Okay.
1.
2.
Alpha.
4.
5.
Erm... no! Er, Bravo.
Just! They're going in alphabetical order here.
7.
8.
-- Foxtrot. -- Or not...
10.
-- Need a play... -- Hamlet. -- That's it.
Er, Delta.
Er... 13?
14?
15.
[BUZZ] No! No, that's it!
Yes!
Multiple of three! Yes!
That was terrifying.
That was the most confusing, complicated game of Fizz Buzz I've ever seen in my life.
Tense.
That was amazing.
I'm through to the final! Wow!
So that's it. It's down to the undefeated Hannah Nicklin versus Emma Blackery,
who lost her first game and has just kept alive since then.
What are they going to be playing?
It's a really clever strategy game called Order and Chaos.
We'll see you then.
