Their score with Golgarach is 2, not 3, and so they don't get a hint to take the crayon.

(Here's an ancient remark to respond to... GG, WHERE ARE YOOOOOUUUUU?!?!?)

If you consider the riddles, there arguably was a clue, although it's so obscure and sub-textual that it would be difficult to connect the dots. But still... as an afterthought to his first riddle about warriors and scribes, Golgarach mentions the old saying that, "The pen is mightier than the sword!" That can be seen as encouragement to take a writing implement.

There, no spoilers.

In fact, Douglas only got 1 out of 3 from the level one wall monster so he wouldn't have had the first step either ... it just gets worse, a fourth way in which they would have been killed off!!!!

Team 8 was just about the thickest team I ever saw in the history of the program.  They did so many things wrong.  Getting only 1 out of 3 in the clue room, going down the serpent's mouth when the correct path was signalled and failing to help Motley like they did was suicidal.  I thought that they probably got what they deserved in that bomb room for misadventure.

I can't help but wonder though what Motley's advice would have been.  If he had given them something that they needed to continue their quest (such as a spell) then the fact that they didn't know that they were supposed to have the glove and throw it down was irrelevant in hindsight anyway.

Can we get all posts about future eps bannd?

Lets stand here and talk while there is a bomb infront of us, nothing will happen (note sarcasm)

if there was a bomb in a room its there for a reason, most teams move as soon as they realise its a bomb room but this team seen to bothered with wasting time..

from the series guide ive found the current team die in merlins room when he falls off the ledge thing, will be nice to watch ok TV  ;D

they missed all information that Motley could have gave them in the snake room, add to that the fact they only scored 1 in the clue room, add to that they didn't follow Mellisandre and went in the snake's mouth instead, they would have probably been killed by the end of level 1.

And deservedly so, for they were an incredibly poo team.

Ross Team was Very unlucky as was Leos, If I remember rightly, Leos team did the best overall at the end of the serise as no team wins, or have I got a bad memory?

I think im gettimg more worked up about knightmare now than i did 1st time round.. i shood be just enjoying it not moaning  ::) Its all good fun u supose

i knew they would not last, who takes the fools gold LOL, also even with the pen would they have got enough time to do whatever they had to do? or maybe that goblin dude would have never enterd the room.

As for the next buch of "people" they took the wrong door but still got the shiled quest with no probles..i told u it doesnt matter on wich door to take.

AND do the tunnles really speed up the quest? to get though each level?

1. I'm sure they'd have had enough time.

2. The goblin dude is really an Ogre, aka Mr. Grimwold.

3. The "next bunch" (sic.) who you say take the wrong door are still the previous team. The next team took the correct door to Quest for the Crown.

4. It could matter which door they take. The team who take the wrong door get a bomb room afterwards- perhaps if they'd taken the correct door they'd have saved themselves the bother.

5. I don't think the tunnels really speed things up; they just provide a bit of atmosphere.

I am curious to watch this program again, It says they got a perfect score of 3 in the level 1 clue room which would mean they would get a lot of info from the wall monster as to what correct items to take off the table

Yep, in this case the Series Guide is incorrect. Their score with Golgarach is 2, not 3, and so they don't get a hint to take the crayon.

And Golgarach proves he does indeed have a sense of humour with his last riddle. After the other two, I suppose they thought there was some clever way in which a saucer of water was indeed deeper than the ocean. I'd forgotten quite how dire they were. The only real moment of enthusiasm is when the adviser in the middle violently scribbles on her pad just before Treguard dismisses them! I was thinking "It's a bit late to care now, dear". And for heaven's sake, telling the Dungeoneer to go take the exit in front of her when it's several feet in front of her behind a table and she's got a bloody helmet on, I mean... And then not even taking that most obvious of exits! And did I hear one of them describe Velda as "Indian"?  

Heh, my hubbie taught them, though, dearie. When you see him in action like that I'm sure you understand why I married him.

So they missed the crayon and suffered the wrath of the Ogre. Do you know the only things I've got to say about that?

That's right - the FATAL TWO WORDS OF DOOM!!!!

'Ooooh, NASTY.'

Floating skull + 1 Ogre + No way out = -1 dungeoneer...

There's a Formula that even I can work out properly, Heh heh.

{Oh, and GO all you SKULLS!!!}
