Appearances

Series 89 Heat games

Jack kicked off by beating three-time winner James Hussey on the crucial conundrum GOWNEDELK, which would become a recurrant theme throughout his games as he had to solve a further four crucials throughout his heats; one of those was after a very unfortunate guess from Katharine Randall, who wrongly gave ☓ unpowder instead of the correct GUNPOWDER which Harvey swooped in and solved after that error.

Despite never hitting the century throughout his run, and with some interesting guesses in his word choices which were hit-and-miss in terms of accuracy, Jack held his nerve and finished off by beating challenger Keith Aldridge before the final numbers round. After the game was done, this left Jack with a points tally of 696, an average of 87 per game, and made him the third octochamp of the series within roughly six weeks; it also provisionally set Harvey as the third seed for the series finals.
