@@T6448_P2 Yes, I knew what you meant, but “setting a target” doesn’t sound right in this context. It sounds like they’re intentionally choosing a number of questions for the chaser to answer correctly.

James may be the most ruthless chaser I’ve seen on the American version. You know what they say, the student has become the master
What a perfect round for James! No misses!
👌
I was watching that when I was 14 years

Thinking won't work if the chaser doesn't know the correct answer
They don't "set a target"; they answer questions and try to get as many as possible.
