< YAWN : - )

Man wearing a hat with yawn written on it. I think this does the trick.

Jon O'Neill

My name is Zefeniah P. Thompson, and I'm suing you all for the most boring thread ever on c4c.

Jon O'Neill

Nines count as 9 points as opposed to 18, and you only score at all in any round if you've voted for GevCountdown here.

Jon O'Neill

I was in the gallery for this game and I helped out with TAMABLE and STURDIER! Go me!

Didn't think Zefcountdown was a message board. Countdownonline was Zef's brainchild.

Just to be geeky and statto-like, the actual target you should be aiming for is 16 812 posts- as this was the very post number in which Charlie announced the (re)birth of c4c- http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/c4countdown/message/16812 Either way everyone seems astonishingly accurate! No, the questi...

Jon O'Neill

Hi and welcome newbies. I've been thinking about that, couldn't someone come up with a computer programme that works out the numbers accurately? There have been computer programs that do this for years. Robovord is my favourite example. http://www.geocities.com/athens/acropolis/7069/robovord.html Bu...

The solution to your problem is to click download, go and play darts for an hour, then come back and watch it.

Me neither, it was far too erotic.

Jon O'Neill

I don't have Countmax on this computer to verify these, but I think BIOFUELS (maybe what Charlie was thinking of?) and ROSEFISH are OK, as well as AVOIDED. Yes. In fact he was asked and mentioned BIOFUELS, which was given the hypothetical green light by Susie, but it was edited out much to Becks' c...

Met him. Knob. Not worth it. Want to meet his dad though.

Jon O'Neill

I have nightmares about losing my front teeth or a limb or not being able to walk.

Jon O'Neill

I like her, I like her jokes, I think she's fit, but I don't like her politics. I think Countdown should be politically neutral.

Jon O'Neill

My friend Owen got robbed. They took his TV, left a load of laptops, had a root around for jewellery and keys to the sports cars out front, stole his iron and Lacoste polo and then smashed a few cabinet windows. We were supposed to have a party at his house that night. We ended up just doing it the ...

Jon O'Neill

No, I think it's a sort of semi-secret, like the way they space the letters to stop three of the same thing coming up in the same round.

Jon O'Neill

Lies. Definitely separated.

Jon O'Neill

I have a friend who is afraid of stickers.

Jon O'Neill

Anyone want to buy some PCs, TVs, cheese and weights?

Cool, I'm from Rainham. Went to school and the rest of it in Daggers -- All Saints. Which supermarket do you work in?

I'd rather post it here if that's alright.

Jason - what is your job?

Jon O'Neill

I have a cunning plan.........(not sure Charlie will be keen).....and that is a TIMED challenge. See who can answer the most in lets say, 60 seconds, or 2 minutes - but not against a bot, just against the clock. Same rules apply though, as in hitting the correct letter first to avoid cheating.

I remember Zef asking you to hold one to ransom. Good times.

Good human players on sticks.

CHEAT.

Jon O'Neill

Hi guys, just wondering who out of here applied for Carol's vacancy for next series. I thought about it, but facing redundancy at work and generally a lot going on I decided to leave it. I did. Don't think there after a boy though. did Zef really threaten to take Stewart Holden to court??!! what a ...

I think the confusion came from you saying "your" when you meant to say "one's". Easy mistake.

Jon O'Neill

Oh yeah, sorry.

Jon O'Neill

Second cousin to you. Probably not related to Kai.

Hi all again!! I came back to play with new contestants. There is a new rule on tv spanish show: 30 victories max per contestant. I had win 101 times before this rule, so I only could win 131 times max. But I only win 116 times, and then I lose in my 117º game against a woman called Inmaculada. Fin...

Jon O'Neill

Well this guy is pretty good at the letters but useless on numbers and conundrums. He generally gets conundrums between 10 and 20 seconds.

Not suspicious at all. No sir.

Jon O'Neill

RB in disguise?

Jon O'Neill

Yeah. And in regular Countdown, you can just type all the letters into CountMax, see what the max is, and submit that. It's a matter of trust, really.

Jon O'Neill

Wow Dave. I think you take this too seriously. Have a step back.

Jon O'Neill

Would've thought it was just the standard TV format. For obvious reasons.

Jon O'Neill

I think you misunderstood, which doesn't really matter as you're not likely to fix my problem, but also I should probably clarify as I did phrase it stupidly.

I got 6 extra seconds, AND the time to finish writing my word in. It's definitely a bug. Anyone else?

Jon O'Neill

I get extra time on all rounds now. About 6 seconds. Since the "finish your half written word" thing was added. It is a bit annoying despite being an advantage. Anyone else?

Jon O'Neill

I like your reasoning. I agree.

Jon O'Neill

I did this with 101 rounds. lol!

Hmm.. it didn't even improve your own high score, let alone the high score.

I just watched a recording of this show on my return from a week working away in Brussels. Well done Junaid - His word play was good but strength is clearly on numbers and speed of the conundrum - With his confidence up he is obviously Octochamp potential. I managed to get tensions, intrigue, bedso...

They're both above my bedroom door. One on the way in and one on the way out. I don't get many women, as you might expect.

Julian's brought to my attention that Jerry and Steven haven't arranged their game. Jono, Ian and Howard are doing all three games tonight (on Apterous I hope otherwise someone will have to host 3 games in a row) which just leaves Jerry vs. Steven. Neither player's been in contact with me or been o...

Just a short one this time to say happy birthday to c4c's favourite Asperger, Jason Larsen.

Have a good one buddy.

Just realised this probably won't count as a record because it was 10 second rounds.

I'd say this is a snip -- but I don't think most people take it as seriously as me. Just remember that two months ago such data didnt even exist. It was priceless.
