Things That Gladden The Heart

I'm new to this. Today, Set 1, Foster was 11/9 up (as I read it) with one end to play.
Why isn't that game over?
Paxton won the last end and it's a half?
Did I misread the score?

Although Foster was 11-9 up there was still one end to play. Both could have won the last end. If Rob had only scored 1 on the last end he would have lost the set 11-10. The format is two sets + a tie break if the set score is one set each, or two halves as we’ve just seen.

Thank you.
What an incredible finish and what a wonderful speech by Foster. Total respect shown by both men.

Fozzie’s a great guy. His pairs record with Alex Marshall is unreal.

If you want to dip in and out of shorter games the Australian league matches are very good. The Aussies play a very aggressive style that’s slowly spreading.

 
What Stephen Libby did in the Final of The Traitors - choosing to share the prize fund rather than have not all for himself.

And I believe that he did it for reasons just as he explained - he wanted to adhere to his core values and felt he would not be able to live with himself, and the guilt, had he betrayed the trust he shared with his fellow Traitor. And betrayal would have been so easy for him. Furthermore I believe he did what he did in good faith, literally, given I have an idea of what his background would have had instilled in him.

I could post a Random Irritation that some think his decision was a cynical one, thinking he'll make more money out of the publicity than he gives away by sharing. But I won't as that is negative and this is for me a very positive story.

Thing is...many people with a 'faith' background...whether still 'active' or not...hold their faith-based family and social values very strongly and consider them core to how they live their life and their decision-making. So thankyou Stephen from Looowisss ;) for showing that there is another way to living life that is not all abut self; not all all about the greed and selfishness of the Me, Me, Me of so many.

Think this may have been better posting in the Traitors thread where people know there might be spoilers

That’s the ending known then

To be fair, it's been everywhere by now. If you think you can avoid it, your kidding yourself. Point taken though and SILH may wish to do something about that.

As per the actual post, 😵‍💫. Struggling to get my head around that one.

Got to love nature......
