I haven't got one number yet.

Mark Deeks

I seem to have it the other way around.

Mark Deeks

Put it up at the end of every run that affects the seedings, I reckon. This'll mean quite a few airings at the start of the series but fewer towards the back end.

Mark Deeks

Seems I've won at both games, really.

Mark Deeks

Does anyone actually like the game playing aspect of Co:Lin or is everyone purely interested in the fascinating science of hotel and train fare booking it so proudly deals in?

Mark Deeks

Well, that's why most people try to learn them, no? In fact, who here openly admits that they never try to learn the definitions? Anybody?

Mark Deeks

There's a dirty version?

Mark Deeks

Personally I find it much more satisfying to find a winner it a word I know. So I imagine do people who learn word lists. I know I do. But if you're capable of learning a spelling, you're capable of learning a meaning. So do it if you want. I just don't see why one approach is considered so sacred....

Mark Deeks

Calling Kirk out specifically is both unfair and incorrect. It's unfair because lots of people do it and you've singled out one in particular, which is silly. And it's incorrect because Kirk tries harder than many of us to actually learn the bastard properly rather than just the spelling. It is he w...

Don't see where it says divorce other than the anagram deliberately designed to allure. A split is not necessarily a divorce.

Mark Deeks

I don't think Facebook is less suited for it, to be honest. You know how some people are idiots who shouldn't be heard from and who actively (or intentionally yet persistently) make discussions worse? Via Facebook, you can control that.

Mark Deeks

Have to go with a title to defend, don't I?

Mark Deeks

Not sure I've even found the question yet.

Mark Deeks

Let's be clear, it's not a sale price. It's not included in the sale. So you guys should still have hope. I think last time it all kicked off mid-December or something? (Can't be arsed to check.) Yeah, it was a few years ago we picked up the £12 rooms, but I think last year was only £19 and £29 or ...

Mark Deeks

I have bought a room at the Travelodge on the Friday night for slightly but negligibly more than Matt Morrison and Ryan Taylor have paid, but for probably a significant amount cheaper than Jon Corby will pay. I hope this helps.

Mark Deeks

Morrison had self-aggrandisingly made himself the topic of the thread and I topically incorporated that topic.

Would be unfair to name and shame

The word "shame" is doing a lot here.

Never.

They do filming in fortnightlyish blocks, and you're clearly near the end of one block.

Take the Countdown element out and we got a game

Mark Deeks

I give opinions about basketball, publically via articles for web media companies, and privately via consulting contracts with agencies. And I teach young kids science. The two spheres are not in any way related.

You need an agent, champ? I know a guy.

nobody cared enough to bring it up.

It got brought up in 2012. It quickly got brought down again.

Is that bad?

On this subject, wouldn't it be better if Nick said just "Fred?" when someone buzzed?

Infinitely

Mark Deeks

Hansford solved that PARQUETRY more instantly than any conundrum I've ever seen since. By which I mean, he said it as soon as he buzzed. Obviously he didn't have it when he buzzed, but, still. There was no lingering after the buzz.

Mark Deeks

Bet taken.

Mark Deeks

This won't affect the world of Countdown nearly as much as the world of Apterous. Literally a game changer.

Mark Deeks

Can't go, Mike. Sorry.

Mark Deeks

In unrelated news, here's a monkey on a pushbike.

I want to go but I'm not now sure it is possible. I have a bowling tournament on the 3rd in Nottingham.

Mark Deeks

Jon Elmer, my first opponent on the show, was the best man at my mate Mark's wedding.

David Butcher, my quarter final opponent, was my cousin's next door neighbour.

He showed more of his working than you did, Butty McButthurt.

Really hoping this is the moment Charlie accidentally forgot to log out of his other account and the truth is revealed - that Charlie is Jason and always has been. Really hoping this. Demanding, even.

Mark Deeks

I do this in my head ALL THE TIME, except I use four or five numbers and see how far into the three figures I can get. I am exceptional husband material.

Mark Deeks

For someone so keen on arguing and debating, you really are incredibly easily butt hurt aren't you?

Mark Deeks

I think octopaedo is the technically correct plural of octopus, actually. Also, Jono.

Mark Deeks

Isn't it more fun not knowing? I always thought so.

Fair dinkum. As you were.

Haven't got my dictionary to hand, as I somehow lost it while moving house, and Lexplorer is down. But I seem to remember LOBULATE isn't valid, and only LOBULATED was. Confirm or deny, someone?

What is the average gap between octochamps is all series? It does seen when one ends its about 3 or 4 or 5 and then another one begins, this may some how prove the heats are seeded... As we know they are... Sometimes it is a short time between one octochamp ending and another starting. Indeed, on e...

They might not spot it on a Channel 4 forum, is all I'm thinking.

You guys are kind of boring. fyi.

Mark Deeks

Allow me to point out the elephant in the room. I think people WANT you to have been screwed over because they like you and not Dylan, so the outcome is unsatisfactory, so blame needs to be placed. A natural if unfair reaction. Agreed with you on all counts, though. Shit happens, and you took the ha...
