INWALES for a beater in round 3. I thought I could get a max game today but missed PIPETTES, argh. Well played again today Chris. You seemed to slump back in your chair once you made the octochamp status as in relief but you weren't really under much threat this game. A tremendous performance and I...

poor letter selections so far.

What has been the lowest ever Max game?

Marc Meakin

Can Chris become Octochamp today, or will he be beaten by an inswinger

Welcome, Matt

Sorry my attempt at obscure witticism failed again

You are of course referring to that great Hammer house stalwart and 3rd member of the British horror film trinity Peter Cushing

When I was at school, I was taught to spell the word "dilemma" as "dilemna". Only years later did I find out how it was actually spelt with the double-m. Anyway, my current dilemma is - If I want to start a topic on the chocolate bar Topic , how can I put it in the Off-topic for...

Carol has the personality for these tv entertainment shows and I don't think Rachel would manage it like Carol does. Only because Carol's far more experienced. Had you seen Carol on her first few weeks of filming Countdown back in 1982 you'd have said Carol had very little personality. Also though,...

I think it would be cool to have some new DC guests

My top 5 would be

1. Marcus from BB10

2. The ghost of Michael Jackson

3. Alexandr the Meerkat

4. Jason Larson

5. Chris Maudsley

Exactly - they should have ignored him and he would have eventually given up.

Well I only hope Innis saw the funny side too
The most amazing thing was it seemed so unprovoked

Isn't it annoying at times when you see a word appearing on the letters selection and then the last letter isn't the one you want? That happens to me so many times.

Another great game. WOOMERA was great, and again we see this guy as being a real flair player (kinda like Hamish, but not quite as good). Bit surprised by the misses of GIAOURS and (even more so) TANGELO, though. I am not keen on players doing this I hope Rachel choosing 4 large will put people off...

I don' think he was plagirising you. If you look at his post on Tue Jul 21, 2009 11:11 pm, he was only making a summary of what had been said.Others having taken it out of context

That's the first time I've ever seen "your choice" become something other than 1 large. I'm fucking proud of Rachel for that. Yeah, I really don't know why anyone would ask for that. But respect for not just choosing 1 large. I am not keen on players doing this I hope Rachel choosing 4 la...

No way you had 2 games that were exactly the same, but you also missed INDWELLS both times!

Still Innis did win

Well done Andrew liked the ' Unbelievable Jeff ' at the end, this could become a catchphrase

It's a shame that there was no mention of the Octochamp record though. I know it got mentioned when Kirk took it although admittedly it had lasted quite sometime.
I wonder how long this record will last?

Marc Meakin

It will take a Hulmeungous effort to do so

Marc Meakin

Argh! More niceish letters for Andrew means two more nines (I never had this many [gettable] nines and I'm sure Craig Beevers is jealous too) and another century despite being beaten on a round again. 118 means his 7 game total is now 802. I'm getting nervous. I was sat on 811 at this point and nee...
