<![CDATA[Miss-spelling Spells]]>One thing I have noticed recently while watching the re-runs on challenge is on one episode they spellcast S W O R D. Fair enough a sword came, beat up some barbarian only for Tregard to comment for them to reverse the spell.

Thing is I always thought to reverse a spell you simply spell the spell backwards (enough spells...). Backwards they spelt it wrong by saying DWORS, thing is the letters came up on screen like that (wrong?!?) but the spell was dispelled...

Am i seeing things or is the Tregard's dictionary a little odd?  😕

I'd love to see that death sequance were Cedric Clobbers there dungeoneer. I've heard its ment to be one of the decent ones but I haven't seen it myself.

Weird one that.  When the main KM site returns, check the clip.  Forget the cock-up of the team, if you look carefully as Cedric goes to clobber the dungeoneer with a stick, he pretends to hit him.  The life force clock appears to cover the dungeoneer as Cedric prepares to hit him, but you can still clearly see that he doesn't actually quite hit him (obviously - as don't want to hurt him!!).  After he pretends to hit him, the life force clock moves to cover the whole screen.

Comprende?

If they had had to do it backwards it would have been much more of a test on how well they did under stress - which with many teams was not very well at all if the Block and Tackle is anything to go by.

Don't sidestep into a block, ya eedjits! Oh dear... very nasty.

Then again the 'left vs right' saga is another story completely...

To spellcast, the advisors called the spels letters in the correct order. To Dis-spell they simply had to called out the letters in the WRONG order...

Many teams simply spelled it backwards for easiness while others got creative with things like D-W-O-R-S. Then again.... the teams spelling could simply have been c**p.
