I'd say that's at least another 6 months.

George Pryn

sorry for the poor numbers performance, no excuses just so excitable that I kept distracting myself

George Pryn

Thanks guys! & oh yeah James, oops... But then again, that does use all 6 numbers rather than 5 hehe

George Pryn

Yep estuarine is what I meant :D South African words to the rescue again TAMBOTIE for a beater in R4 Shame Kathy went for a final consonant in round 12 or it would have been a 9 with ANCHORITE. Loved the 2nd 4L solution -nice one George! Not as bad as the MEANDERS round - had I gone for a vowel it w...

George Pryn

Kathy was a really nice woman!! Huge fan of yours Jen!!!

George Pryn

was fishing for an E there

George Pryn

down in a not-down kind of way

George Pryn

BAASIE in round 7 but I wouldn't have gone for it. LIGULAR as an alt. to GORILLA in round 1 too. It was in the ODE 2 but removed from ODE 3 and is now in the ODO. Very good again, George! Keep these awesome four large solves coming :D. Don't even think about ditching it for the evil two large again...

round 6 - why to stick to your guns by george "pryn" ford And disappointing to see you only go up to 93,800 in R3 when you could have gone to 93,900. I hope you aren't starting to bottle it. lmao thanks fred mumford if you have a brother your mum is mumford and sons like the band I find t...

George Pryn

lmao .. .. .. this is great

George Pryn

sadly not

George Pryn

MAYBE

George Pryn

Personally I take a completely opposite view. IMO changing the result of a round retrospectively is worse than the problem it's attempting to resolve. Once a round is completed, the adjudication should stand, no matter what. This is the way practically all competitive activities with a formal set o...

George Pryn

hehe thanks guys

George Pryn

Wow thanks everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes John was great and a really nice guy, I'm not one of those people that writes down every round/scores etc so when it came to the end and I saw the scores I was really surprised, as with his great spots it felt like a really close game and I don't think 68 warran...

cheers mark

George Pryn

I think that was the only solution so you can let me off hehehe Maybe - the solver is down so can't check at the mo. But you could of course have just done 100/50 = 2 and not gone above 1,950 in an intermediate stage. Or even 975 actually. Glad you didn't though. I suppose thinking about it, it was...

George Pryn

Gavin I have no problem with the discussion on here. That is great and the right forum for it but the players on the day have no influence over how Susie interprets things. I hope Jonny gets another chance as he seemed an excellent player and George goes on from here. With no definitive wordlist av...

hehehe ok fair enough

To be honest I do prefer simplifying things usually, but I think that was the only solution so you can let me off hehehe

thanks so much all

Great guy, thanks for that!

it's like pluralising mean in the average-sense That's more clear cut though as MEAN doesn't have a mass noun sense. actually means in that sense is weird because if you search for mean you get the average meaning as another type without a mass noun label but if you searh means there is no mention ...

George Pryn

this is all very silly, jonny would probably be invited back anyway and you cannot definitively say that if headways was allowed he would have won, it's a completely different situation. I couldve had an adrenaline run and got the conundrum I couldve broken down and had a fit and died I couldve pick...

George Pryn

I KNOW I MISSED LOADS BUT WAS SUCH A GREAT GAME YAY true headways was a shame, but then I did play it safe in the numbers round and wasn't even looking in the conundrum as too happy, so although it may be controversial I don't think you can firmly say that if it was allowed Jonny would've won, becau...

Was kicking the room every minute for about 10, still happening now but have given up, when the game went down the site seemed to aswell

I don't understand your question, but I will have a shot at an ANSWER, to give you a sense of closure: FOR one, it is not OK to ask me if I am, as you put, 'fucking mental', as this is TECHNICALLY a criminal offence under the Communications Act 2003, section 127: A person is guilty of an offence if ...

From this, it makes sense to say 0! is the product of nothing, which is defined to be 1. If someone asked me what the product of nothing is, my first instinct would be 0, so that doesn't really make sense to me...

Old 15 round format The person at the top of this table isn't any of the usual names that might spring to mind.

Originally I thought pah horrible eugh get off what are you doing why are you here but I think that was mainly because I like 4L a lot and would like all games to only have 4L as an option and for us to all live in 4 large worlds based around 4L, with 937.5 trees and 302 sidewalks, however this is a...

George Pryn

Thanks for all the messages of support everyone. I don't think it was fatigue, so I'm not going to blame that. I think I always knew that I had at least one bad game in me. I enjoyed the run, and there's still a chance I'll make the finals, I suppose. I was really disappointed with my numbers games...
