Scott Woodthorpe's appearance on The Chase

[@trealoo33]

Lesley Ann got the easiest money ever won on the chaser. 1,000 in the cash-builder, took the -2000, guessed most of the answers, and smiled through the final chase.

[@ScottWoodthorpe]

And I can't begrudge her winning the money, it's all part of the game! (PS. Thanks for watching!)

[@trealoo33]

Scott Woodthorpe I have to admit that I have watched a show, where a contestant took the minus offer, and the other contestants openly wanted him to lose. They were happy went he got a question wrong. It looked so unprofessional, so good on you guys.. You handled it well and really a part of the game like you said.

[@Person01234]

Eh, unless the team gives consent for you to take the lower offer I think they're entire justified in taking it badly. You're not just failing to contribute anything to the pot, you're not just actively taking away from the other's hard work, but you're also splitting the money the others have earned to enrich yourself whilst doing so. It's honestly a really shitty thing to do. It's fine if the team have given their consent because they want you in the final chase or whatever but aside from that, taking a minus offer is a giant middle finger to your teammates and just screams "I'm a selfish knob, give me money for nothing".

Instead of winning £19000 divided by 3 players they won £17000 divided by 4 players. That makes out to be an extra £2083,33 for each person if Lesley-Ann did not make it to the final round. That is good money if that had been the case.

It was still smart of Lesley Ann to choose the minus 2 grand. She didn't really contribute much of anything EXCEPT giving the team an extra step in the beginning of the final chase. However, if the set of questions in the final chase HAD some current "pop culture" questions Lesley might had been able to contribute.

[@ScottWoodthorpe]

[@LuchoVena]

This has to be hardest trivia game show ever made, and the chances to win are to the floor, and the payout isnt even that rewarding when you survive all of that.

[@kevintablet743]

LuchoVena it's up there all right Then again it is worth it when somebody goes high gets away with it and then you have 80k in the pot to share, that's a lot of money to play for And nothing can beat the final chase either

[@qwertyTRiG]

It's got nothing on University Challenge or Only Connect, and neither of those offer any money at all.

[@observerobserver]

Lesley-Ann deserved to win nothing, she was one of the dumbest people they have had on The Chase. These kind of TV game shows give an opportunity for others to feed of other intelligent people. Mel put hours and hours of revision and experience into winning his proportion, Lesley-Ann put about 30 minutes before the show began. Shhheesh.

[@kevintablet743]

observerobserver that is unfortunately the nature of this show Anybody can get on this show and if they’re lucky, can get a decent team who may even build the pot hugely, then to guarantee they get a potential share, they go low and take money off the team The minus offer is one of the most tactical and depressing parts of the game. Taking it may win your team the game, but doing so may destroy the teams morale.

[@darkAlwin]

In Germany, it's hot: Asked Hunted (Gefragt Gejagt [DE]) and a bit we have changed.

[@llddau]

The centre/center question was odd to me. Does this mean English and US English both only use one spelling? I’m in Australia, we use both for different meanings. In the center (middle) of the room vs shopping centre, community centre. Like meter and metre are different things for instance.

[@SandraNLN]

Yes. US English would never spell it centre, no matter the meaning. I can't attest to whether the Brits would use both spellings though. I cant think of a single "...-re" ending word in US English (outside the unchangeable ones ie "are"). Those types of words are exclusively spelled "..-er," and most school teachers would take points off anything spelled the British fashion and call it wrong.

[@llddau]

@@SandraNLN It’s funny how the US has changed lots about English. Things like realise/realize , colour/color, etc.

[@SandraNLN]

@@llddau agreed! My parents were British expats, and I went to Uni in Scotland, so I do tend to follow a lot of British spelling trends: "colour" and "favourite" and such, although I had all other schooling in the US. So in the US the spelling differences really do matter because most people will look at it and ask you "didn't you spell that word wrong?? Or is it a typo? You should fix it, it's confusing" haha. Also things like "Aluminum" in the US (pronunciation difference included) and "Aluminium" in British. I frankly find it intereting the way "correct" English (as opposed to local dialects) differs between the two countries 😄 I'd love to live Australia and NZ though and see the differences there too!

[@llddau]

@@SandraNLN We basically use proper English, so English with an accent ;) Meanwhile the millions of accents in the UK is crazy isn’t it? Even though the Kiwis can’t speak it, that’s not an accent it’s just funny weirdos. But we love them anyway, we’ve got to because there’s almost more Kiwis here than over there!

Is Mark not familiar with the war of 1812? It wasn't the distance that "saved Canada", it was America's hubris and the very assumption that all they would have to do was march into Canada and Britain would come to negotiations. They underestimated the resistance they would face and ultimately were brought to status quo terms after Napoleon abdicated and Britain was able to focus more troops. Canada also razed the US Capitol in the war.

It's not your white-knight duty to defend the other contestants, they could have taken it up with her later, personally. None of our business, frankly. They all knew what they were signing up for. Could be that they all lost and went home with nothing regardless! Geez! Guess what? The money isn't even real until it's won. And it's rare that even happens. She didn't "take 2k away" from anyone. She did not take it out of their wallets and hand it to Bradley. It doesn't work like that, people are so venomous! As if in all the hundreds and hundreds of episodes of this show, contestants haven't taken minus offer before, or tried to go big or middle and lost the final chase for everyone. How is that not taking money away from everyone, but this is? Theoretical money can't be stolen.

[@Random-xw1fg]

People take minus offers, there's no problem with that. The problem with the stupid girl is that in all the show she has answered ONE right question only, and brought nothing to the table.

Proportionally it was. 3 players with £19,000 get over £6,000 each. Four players with one docking £2,000 leaves £17,000 shared four ways i.e £4,250 so she took two thousand from EACH of them really not just two thousand out the pot. You have to look at the bigger picture.
