Hmm...am I I the only one to have juggled? Scraping the barrel I know...Incidentally, has anyone else 'performed' eg. playing guitar/magic trick etc before??

James Hurrell

Please put my name down. Hopefully should be OK.

James Hurrell

Brilliant! Thanks.

James Hurrell

And yes, I'd expect Junaid to get WELL over 90% of the maximums on several thousand 4-large numbers games, wouldn't you? Anyway well done Charlie, a well-deserving second place, after having played you on apterous a few days ago I'm expecting even better things in the CoC. Er Ben. In case you haven...

James Hurrell

Apologies to anyone that might have been unfortunate enough to play either myself or Charlie on Apterous from Sunday 7th - Tuesday 9th Dec. You happened to be playing against the cream of the CoC and therefore may have received an absolute spanking (unless you're Paul Howe). Good boost to my flaggin...

James Hurrell

You star!

James Hurrell

Jon - not that I want to copy the avatar (necessarily)! but do you (or Chris) by any chance have the photo taken of me and Rachel (or indeed any of the ones we had taken as groups in the bar??

James Hurrell

School is better than work Kai - trust me! Enjoy it whilst it lasts...

I am sooo depressed today.

Charlie, about that Countdown League...when you getting it started?

James Hurrell

Just got home and had to log on to say that it was a pleasure to meet you all and a privilege to be paired in the 1st game with a player such as DoD. (Kai - remember for the recap I buzzed first for the conundrum but it didn't work ;) ) Some amazing games and some great humour throughout. A shame it...

James Hurrell

Agreed! Just thinking that now I am going to have to apply for audience tickets at some point so I can see her again. Oh well, back to the real world....

James Hurrell

Briers

James Hurrell

Many thanks. Really quite exctied now!!!!! 3 hours to go...

James Hurrell

I had IMPASTO/TOPSAIL, RECITED, SPATULA, and HUSTLES as other equallers but missed SOLATIUM.

James Hurrell

Just realised I'd not posted on this thread!

The might Greens - Plymouth Argyle!! We're the best team for at least a 3 hour drive in any direction!!

James Hurrell

The CoC draw has had a few changes so I thought I'd start a new topic. The confirmed lineup is: At least 12 of the 16 players are members of this forum! Filming is 7 - 9 December (Sunday to Tuesday.) The updated game table is on the wiki, if you prefer to digest things in that format. Anyone else l...

Looks like we have no choice, James .

I haven't found anyone willing to swap either

How about some warm up games on Apterous???

James Hurrell

If I wasn't already excited about CoC, I am almost uncontrollable now!!! 16 days to go....

James Hurrell

Not re-drawn then... oh well. Congratulations Debbi btw.

James Hurrell

Fantactic News!! Sad as it is, I watch Jeff for at least 2-3 hours every Saturday and was hoping he would get the nod.

Looking forward to meeting Rachel too

James Hurrell

DEUTZIAS ruined a 1st 100% game

one day....

James Hurrell

I hope no-one posts any beaters because that could well be my first perfect game

Any chance of redoing the draw Damian??

Others that stand out, look like DOD v Steven Briars, and a possible series 59 repeat of Charlie v Junaid in the QFs Don't wipe out James Hurrell that easily, Batman. I agree with that sentiment, James is quality. You're not too bad yourself David! Let's just hope we kick it off in style with a hig...

James Hurrell

Hope this is true - he would be a breath of fresh air.

James Hurrell

This forum and apterous are brilliant, Charlie. :) Just because it goes pear-shaped for a few days, doesn't mean you're not doing a great job! 8-) Apterous does rock indeed :D, brilliant work on the site Charlie :) Hope you are able to fix the problem. I concur - though I am starting to get withdra...

James Hurrell

Since yesterday I have been getting problems. Somtimes I can log in and see people in playing, but then cannot play a game. Other times I cannot even get to log in, but still have ability to chekc out recently played games / top players etc. If the site was actually down I wouldn't have thought I wo...

James Hurrell

Damn. I appear to have had this completely by-pass me and must have missed the enrolment whilst on holiday.

If anyone would like a game at any time please let me know. I had a bit of a disaster with MSN on my one attempt so far, but would welcome the challenge.

James Hurrell

Well done Debbi. I thought you'd win 8, but I was impressed with the guy that beat you. I have been catching up having been on holiday and haven't watched his next match but I would think he could be on for 8 wins. I thought Monday was your best performance (mainly because you beat me! ;-), but you ...

James Hurrell

he sounded like a deer in the headlights!

Wondering exactly what this might sound like...

James Hurrell

Hi Steven

I was in a similar position to yourself as a losing quarter finalist when expected to win. Sometimes it's just not your day.

Welcome to the forum

James Hurrell

Just to say hope you all have a great tournament tomorrow. I'll be wishing I was there instead of the wedding I'll be attending instead. 80 degrees in a suit on a Saturday - joy.

Have fun.

James Hurrell

6/1 odds for the end of the program? What odds on it carrying on? I'd put some money on that option.

James Hurrell

Just heard this on Radio 5 - gutted.

James Hurrell

Hmm interesting, sort of. I was on holiday last year during David's run so will actually be able to pick up on games I'd missed which works well. A little, in fact a lot, surprised at the choices. Any reason? Would have thought repeat finals / old specials / tight high scoring games would have featu...

James Hurrell

Back from hols and just caught up on the games. I will try to be there for the final tomorrow. Disappointed I was unable to play my game (though I think it would have needed more than a Corby 'off day' for me to have progressed). I would be more happy to participate in any online league/ladder/tourn...

James Hurrell

It's possible I could play on Saturday night (19th) if it helps, but I respect your decision.

Hmm, is it possible to play a QF and SF on Sunday before the 'banging finals night'?

James Hurrell

I am on holiday 12th-19th, and I guess 1st round of Plate games need to be next week. I should be able to play on Sun 20th (maybe even evening of 19th) if this is OK with whomever it happens to be??

Otherwise I will have to withdraw.

James Hurrell

Anyone know the last time 4 A's in a single selection??

James Hurrell

Just noticed this thread was started the day after the final. Probably not the best idea without putting 'spoiler' on it.

James Hurrell

Sorry Kirk - didn't even think of that as a spoiler!! Thought everyone would have known that by now.

James Hurrell

I got the impression you missed a few more maxima than usual! Really??? This standard is more than good enough. That numbers game was near impossible and with the exception of ANODISE the other 'misses' were extremely obscure words imo. Amazingly high quality game. I'd have been so far behind it wo...

James Hurrell

Surely the loss of Corby towards the top of the list would bring the odds down now on the others?? Or is this betting not the interactive type?

Shame the draw produced this match up. I reckon a Howe v Corby match would make a worthy final.

There's always the repeat on Friday morning on C4

James Hurrell

Shall we make it 7:30 to get you out of cooking??

OK - 6pm it is. I have notified Jason.

James Hurrell

Leave it as it is and hopefully Martin won't read this before Friday giving me that edge! I think I'll need it.

James Hurrell

Hi Martin

Is 17:30/18:00 on Friday ok or too early for you? If too early, how about 20:00? Jason Cullen has offered to host and I cannot think of any reason to turn this down so if we can find a mutually acceptable time for all of us then we should be good to go.

James Hurrell

No, I was dragged to that one about this time last year

James Hurrell

Thanks Jono, but I am being dragged to a wedding that day (unfortunately nowhere near Nottingham otherwise I'd try and sneak out) so will miss this one too

Are there any planned after COLEI?

James Hurrell

Dammit! Would liked to have joined one of these for the 1st time but alas in Spain on hols.

James Hurrell

Richard - you just have to ask anyone involved in S57 finals. There was a definite 'attempt' to cheat, which was quashed and handled very well by the Production Team, but this aside, I did find him quite a character and he definitely added to the shows he appeared on. Based on what I experienced ove...

James Hurrell

Hi Martin

How's Friday evening? You name the time. If no good let me know.

James

James Hurrell

If Martin doesn't object I don't mind you doing our game either.

We have to arrange a time first - when's best with you Martin??

James Hurrell

Hi Jono - Just read this link (only started posting again on these pages this weekend so a bit out of touch) so I know this is late but sign me up. Never played any online games but no doubt there is instruction somewhere on here about what I need to install/do to get ready to play. Any help would b...

James Hurrell

Or just base it on highest average scores and then I might be able to stake a claim!

James Hurrell

Given that 5 series will make the 16 finalists; and I understand that Jon Corby from S54 has been given a spot(??) it would make sense to have 3 from each series (though won't necessarily give the strongest 16). Anyway: - S55: - Richard Brittain - Winner Tony Warren - Finalist Steven Briers - Series...
