I'll link it when it appears don't worry

Paul Anderson

Well, I told them that was the case...it'll be light-hearted I assume

Paul Anderson

Supposedly there'll be an article tomorrow about my candidacy...will link it when I see it.

Paul Anderson

Gogglebox eh? How standards have fallen

Paul Anderson

without the H Andy, according to her email

Paul Anderson

Yeah, it's a scandal. So many folk in precarious employment forced to go to work and send their kids to schools that are supposed to be closed just so they can be sure they get a hot meal. Just write the bloody cheques

Paul Anderson

Dunno if it's age just catching up, but I only really started to put on weight when I started playing Apto. I'm much more determined this year to be as active as I used to be. Sitting motionless on the couch is self-evidently gonna increase your waistline.

Paul Anderson

Shit man, sorry to hear that.
Have only heard of a few I know getting it here in Ireland. And those are all since Christmas. Hence the National lockdown

Paul Anderson

Happy New Year fellow Countdownites The draw for ZD Numberists S2: Mon 4th January 2021: Thomas Cappleman vs Sam Cappleman-Lynes (The Cappleman-Off) Bradley Horrocks vs Antoinette Ryan Peter Clarke vs Matthew Tassier Elizabeth Beer vs Tim Down Mon 11th January 2021: Noel McIlvenny vs Jon O'Neill (Ul...

Great stuff last night. Susie was excellent as were both the players. Big congrats to the winner! (Won't name here in case spoilers?) Well I’m sure we can name him now. Ladies and gents, I give you our ZoomDown Series 2 champion, Rob Foster! A very worthy winner indeed. Cracking year’s CD against t...

Paul Anderson

Na, sorry Jon but Rhys is right...terrible pacing, not enough gameplay and a complete imbalance between the intro and the outro

Paul Anderson

Yeah using TCC’s tool, which uses Apto for the maxes, but has links to Premium

Paul Anderson

She sure is! Ok, I guess I should make a rough plan for the chats

Paul Anderson

I wouldn't like to compare, but we've been treated to a whole lot of great CD and are in for a whole lot more

Paul Anderson

Susie to tweet the link sometime over le weekend

Paul Anderson

We're finally here!

What a final we have in store. 2 brilliant players to round off the series in style. Bring it on!

Paul Anderson

Ha, sure one can only dream eh Tom!

Just chatted to Susie, all good for the final.....just need two players now! Who will they be?

Paul Anderson

Aw thanks guys!

Cinderella United! Love the cup run analogy, hopefully we go far and cover our budget for the next few seasons.

Paul Anderson

Woohoo! Quarterfinals time

Best of luck to all our players tonight

Paul Anderson

David is an Apterite, and showed a nice improvement I thought

Paul Anderson

Yeah, it's just a clickbait type list to get their business advertised in the press

Paul Anderson

Fabulous from LJD! A slight shame they didn't announce his max game

Paul Anderson

Ha, the saga continues!

16's was certainly more enticing...will there be any bites at 8's?

Oh for sure, it’s good fun tho if nowt else comes of it.
We’re getting a Xmas boost anyway with her Highness on
Bring it on

Paul Anderson

Ooh? I wonder was that the trigger to suspend? Hers was the most clickbaity name included

Paul Anderson

"Bookmakers will suspend betting on a sporting market when they think the odds are no longer a true reflection of the probability of all possible outcomes" Ha, were they ever? So, they put the names out there in the hope of driving business through getting press coverage....they got that, ...

Paul Anderson

Or they suspect a Peter Canavan (Tyrone GAA player who made top 3 in SPOTY voting, as loads of Nordies voted for him)

Paul Anderson

Aye, I wonder what that says?

Market too small?
Or someone is about to be offered the job?

Paul Anderson

I know you're a letters man Jack, but some folk actually like the numbers too.

Paul Anderson

Thanks Tom, I appreciate it!
Trying the only contacts I have, which are the Irish Times and RTE.

Paul Anderson

Hi guys, thanks for the support, it means a lot! It would surely help my case to get some media coverage to the effect of "Who the hell is this PA chap and why is he on the list of favourites, despite me never having heard of him?" I'm a huge fan of Colin btw, but I'd be a fool to not gras...

Martin Hurst wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 3:48 pm That's brilliant. Being officially shorter odds than Richard Osman to be next Countdown host is definitely one to screenshot, print, and frame for the wall

Not sure what he's done to be longer odds than me tbh

Paul Anderson

Isn't that our 2021 budget?

Paul Anderson

Get on it lads...it'll be a small market...easily influenced.

Paul Anderson

And sure I'm spoilt for choice for potential replacements. Ours is a more impressive list than that hastily-convened one Ladbrokes put up.
You'd be my first choice, if you're willing

Paul Anderson

No, I will, but given who I'm likely to face, it'll prob be just the one

Paul Anderson

Long story short: Fred got it spot on. Eoin, you have embarrassed yourself by writing down words in full that nobody else on this site would ever dream of. I hope you kept the receipt for that recent calibration. Secondly, nobody appointed you ZD Ombudsman. We know exactly what we are doing, +/- 5%,...

Paul Anderson

Ye gawds, we haven’t moved on have we. I didn’t have time to read the latest moan as the days be getting short

Paul Anderson

Now that we seem to have moved on, I’ve agreed to face the carryover champ in the S3 opener. Will it be Zubair’s tetra match or will I face Peter or Toby? But much more importantly.....

Who should host for my one-and-only match?

Paul Anderson

No, not you Graeme, you were spot on, it’s a non-issue.

Paul Anderson

I saw the maxes too on the Apto game. I also chose to ignore the racist sounding one in favour of the more interesting oopacks, which sounded like Woolpack.
Fred made an instant call just as I did, and we both got it spot on, so I think it might be your own moral compass that needs calibrating

Paul Anderson

I’m quite triggered at the suggestion we don’t know what we’re doing

Paul Anderson

what's with the coloured text? Illegible really

Paul Anderson

I got 6 wins and 740 odd

Paul Anderson

Wow, that was a great episode!
2 cracking games and an increased viewership!
It's shaping up nicely

Paul Anderson

Extremely impressed with Harry's cubing....a new bar has been set

Paul Anderson

Not sure how you would incorporate the up-to-the-minute stuff like ZD, Twitter etc in a show that's recorded months ahead

Paul Anderson

Hello and welcome to Countdown on World Donald Day. Did you know that Donald is now the world's most popular baby name, in any language, for any sex. Now you do

Paul Anderson

Maybe in England, but the rest of us have been celebrating Samhain or the start of winter for thousands of years.

Paul Anderson

Does a Zoom meeting room count? If so, I've had 60-70 at least

Paul Anderson

So if Paul had buzzed in with DECANTING before the human dictionary got it, he'd now hold the "3 rounds to go" record... Gotta be a candidate for one of the greatest "if onlys". Pros: I'd have made the finals and I'd possibly be eligible for next CoC Cons: Wouldn't have made all...

Paul Anderson

It’s a bit like a Royal Command Performance, the Queen of Countdown in town, so we’d all better smarten up our act and stand up straight

Paul Anderson

Lol...I skimmed her cv, should be fine

That's my thought.

The most interesting part is she wants to lex rather than just be a guest. I’ve been trying to get my head around it

And we have a new Twitter admin in the form of Spike!

Much appreciated!

Paul Anderson

Have one on the way
