Apterous Simulation Of An Entire Series

IMHO what would be quite interesting to do, would be to simulate a whole series of countdown on apterous, with a randomly generated order of play, and see what happens. I don't think the guys with the highest ratings would necessarily run away it. Andrew Hulme tm. I would love to do this. Probably ...

Re: COUNTDOWN SPECIALS *PLEASE READ*

Kirk simply had a nice day out yesterday. He got up early, about 6:33am and walked to the gym. He likes to go early in the morning so he can watch all the old people work out. He is often surprised by the lack of young workers, working out, before work. After his trip to the gym he went home and his...

A lot does depend on your conundrum confidence. In a game that wasn't a series finals I'd back myself to get it rather than try something fancy on the numbers.
Especially against a player like Craig, who is clearly a numbers King.
