But compared to Kirk, or Conor, or you Paul, or so many others- then I am very average indeed. And at least 2 of those 3 have some Irish DNA ;) . Although I'm only half Irish, which explains why I'm not as good as Conor or Paul Gallen. Anyway, I've been impressed by your performances on apterous. H...

Does anybody have any information about it this year? I am incredibly keen to go having missed CoLin, but I don't know the date. Can I have some URGENT help please? :) COBRIS 2006 and 2007 were both held on the first Saturday of July, so if there is one this year, presumably it would be on Saturday...

Eoin Monaghan

Oh thanks Innis for that. I thought my computer was just messed up or something. Thanks for saving about 20 minutes of my life, probably, in which I would have beat myself up trying to get it working!
Cheers!

I've tried numerous times today to log on to apterous but it ain't lettin' me. Bummer, as this is the weekends are the only times I can do the Daily Duels!

Eoin Monaghan

If you say I am excellent at countdown because I am Irish and so is David O'Donnell-well I thank you for the compliment. But compared to Kirk, or Conor, or you Paul, or so many others- then I am very average indeed.

Sorry Oliver but I was really happy with this one- two nines. After a poor start, disallowed nine, I got 4 eights and two nines- my best performance to date.

I was watching the Krypton Factor and saw a contestant called Jon Stitcher. As I've never met Jon before I don't know what he looks like and was wondering if it was him. If it was then you really were bade in the assault course.

Had a lovely Speed 9 against Eoin which - despite us both being a bit dozy up until round 4 - amazingly turned into the new Speed 9 record ! Also, Eoin's must be the highest losing score ever, by some distance. You're still my public enemy number 1 Jim, taking that record from me, an innocent littl...

We had about 5 inches yesterday but I still had to get the bus to school. It snowed a good lot in our school but it snowed LOADS where I live but when I got home from school and after I watched Countdown all the snowed had melted and/or turned to ice. I was so raging!

I'm really happy today because I was only 10 points from the maximum and that was because I didn't get the conundrum. So I got the maximum in all the letters and numbers rounds. Yay! Really? That's awesome. You got a 14/15 max game? A lot of the greats struggle to reach 14/15 so very well done. out...

I can think of one at least who's lower. And he'll be at COLIN.

And his surname could well be the highest.

Who?
Is it BOB - which is worth 19 points?

Eoin Monaghan

Good luck against Nick, Kai and vice-versa

You could've been more exact in your post

If A=1 and B=2 and so on what is the name which would score the most points.

e.g Eoin would score 43 points because E=5, O=15, I=9 and N=14 points

Putting Y- at the front of words was a Middle English way of forming the past participle, leading to some words which look pretty weird by modern standards. YCLEPT sticks in my mind for some reason. Regardless of all that, it isn't valid in Countdown and therefore fails to fulfil Phil's criteria. i...

Kai you need to win today if I have any chance of winning this. I know it's not completely over if I have predicted wrong as there will still be 11 games left, but I'll be a WHOLE 2 points behind!
