**Mat Ryer:** Well, you won a competition, so congrats. Jon Calhoun is also here. Jon.
**Jon Calhoun:** Hey, Mat. How are you?
**Mat Ryer:** Hi, Jon. I'm good, mate. I'm excited. Are you gonna win?
**Jon Calhoun:** \[03:59\] I don't know.
**Mat Ryer:** That's a good answer. An honest answer.
**Jon Calhoun:** If my team carries me, I'll win. But if my team doesn't carry me, I probably won't.
**Mat Ryer:** Okay, good. So he's not gonna be pulling his own weight there. Well, Natalie Pistunovich is in town. Hello, Natalie.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Hi, Mat.
**Mat Ryer:** Welcome back. Are you looking forward to the game show?
**Natalie Pistunovich:** I'm very excited to be the one person who is aware of the rules, yes.
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah, absolutely.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Because I already played it.
**Mat Ryer:** Yes. Please remind me if I forget, as well. Katie Hockman also around. Hello, Katie. Welcome. How are you doing?
**Katie Hockman:** I'm good. I'm very excited to win, despite Jon not believing that we can.
**Mat Ryer:** Ah, okay. Well, you'll have to carry him. That's it. Rob Findley is also here, aren't you, Rob?
**Rob Findley:** I am. Hi, Mat.
**Mat Ryer:** Hey. Welcome to the Gopher Time/Go Time Mashup. Yeah, don't worry, I said it wrong on purpose. I need to tell you about this game that we're gonna play, because it's lovely. Essentially, we've asked a load of gophers some questions, and you'll have to try and guess the answers. So you're trying to match t...
The top answers will go on the board. Any response that had five or more answers will appear on the board, and in order to get control of the board, each team has to do a face-off, basically, where you'll just have a guess and see the highest score, and that's how you'll take control of the board. Once you've got contr...
You cannot confer through the game, but while you're stealing, you can confer, and I'll remind you of that later. Do we feel like we're ready to play? I'm gonna announce the teams that we have here.
So team zero - it's Natalie, Steve and Julie. You are our first team, team zero.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Woo-hoo!
**Julie Qiu:** Woo-hoo!
**Mat Ryer:** There you go. And you know, don't take anything by the fact that zero is in the name of your team; it's literally just zero-bound, like with the Go slice. That's why I've done that. Jon, Katie and Rob, team one. You're our second team.
**Rob Findley:** Go team one!
**Jon Calhoun:** Katie apparently isn't happy. \[laughter\]
**Katie Hockman:** It's one for the first place, yeah.
**Rob Findley:** Very happy.
**Mat Ryer:** Yeah. Okay, good. They're definitely happy, we've been assured of that verbally. Okay, we're gonna now look at the board, we're gonna show the screen... Can we see this? I'm gonna jump into our first round here... Natalie and Jon, you're gonna go face to face; we're gonna have an interface-off, if you lik...
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Welcoming.
**Mat Ryer:** Welcoming. Gophers say... \[win sound\] Yes, it's on the board, in number two. Nine points there. So Jon, you're gonna have a guess. If you beat Natalie, you have to get that number one spot. You'll take control of the board.
**Jon Calhoun:** Natalie stole my answer, and I don't know if my back-up is... I guess -- is "friendly" the same as "welcoming"? I don't know how that would be categorized.
**Mat Ryer:** Let's see if friendly is on there. Gophers say... \[win sound\] Yes, friendly... And where is it? At number three.
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Wooooh!
**Mat Ryer:** Natalie's team, team zero, takes control. And we're over to Steve Francia. Steve... How's it going, Steve? Are you gonna have a guess? What do you think the Go community said about this?
**Steve Francia:** \[08:05\] I was gonna say welcoming and friendly...
**Mat Ryer:** Okay...
**Steve Francia:** But those have been taken. So I'm gonna say "good-looking". No, it's two words... Attractive.
**Mat Ryer:** \[laughs\] Okay. Gophers say... \[fail sound\] Oh, no, I'm sorry. Attractive was not on the board. You lose a life. But don't worry, you've got two other lives.
**Steve Francia:** It should have been. It should have been.
**Mat Ryer:** Agree, yeah. Julie, would you wanna have a guess?
**Julie Qiu:** I'm gonna say "fabulous".
**Mat Ryer:** Fabulous, okay. Gophers say... \[fail sound\] Oh, sorry. Nobody said it was fabulous. Well, five or more people didn't say that. We'll loop back around... Natalie, what do you think?
**Natalie Pistunovich:** Inclusive.
**Mat Ryer:** Inclusive. Gophers say... \[fail sound\] No. Nobody said inclusive. And that's your third and final life gone, I'm afraid... So now the other team, team one, have a chance to steal. You can confer. I just need one answer from you, Jon, the team captain, after you've conferred with your team.
**Jon Calhoun:** Alright. From my team, does anybody think the word "gopher" might be on the board?
**Katie Hockman:** I don't know...
**Rob Findley:** The Go community is gopher?
**Jon Calhoun:** That, or like programmer, or like nerdy...
**Katie Hockman:** I was gonna say diverse...
**Rob Findley:** Yeah, I think diverse...
