Only allowed to pot two reds in a shot once? (Answer concealed in colour #E4F4FE below; same colour as background.) 24. 1+7+2+7+1+7+1+7+1+7+1+7+1+7+1+7+1+7+2+3+4+5+6+7. At no point does it say the player pots the FIRST red; he instead manages a century clearance. It's assumed that five reds had been...

Why not have a series every week, then have the two highest scoring contestants from that week play on the Friday to see who goes through to the end of the month finals, which would have the best four contestants from that month fighting it out to see who gets to play in the end of the quarter-year...

It may be Junior.
It may be tied.
But sod it, a win's a win!

If anyone wants me, I'll be in Cuba. See you in a fortnight!

Kevin Davis

I would be in...but you maniacs have scheduled this tourney to begin on the day I go to Cuba.

Gack!

Looks like an interesting idea; I'll throw my hat into the ring for when there's space

Now that we have the awesome ninefinder contests, could you add either a default or login page option that these induce a noise or set window to on top or something when they come up? :) I like multitasking but I don't like losing to the multiheaded lexicohydra they call Chrinnis. :P You mean Kirch...

Not really without making the window taller, which I understand is a problem for people with small screens.

Perhaps having the "markerboard" taking up 2/3 of the top of the screen, and the total in the other third?

4.83 - not bad for Mr. Astigmatism.

You completed this one after midnight when the results had been already published, so that won't count. Presumably same happened with the other one.

Ah. Damn my night-owliness!

How about a list, alongside the nines and disallowed words, of the words that only you have successfully declared. I know, for example, that I am the only player to have declared MUNITIONS or DIALOGIC, but are there any more? I am the only person to declare ESQUILAX 8-) And I'm the only one to have...

Well done Julie, a real good match that.

This may well be because it passed midnight when I was playing it.

Now, I thought playing GONAD was bad enough...I was very, very wrong.

It's not working for anyone ATM, Kevin. Not since 7:43pm last night. Always a good idea to check 'today's games' when you have a problem, then you know if it's apterous as a whole, or if you've got a personal connection problem. Having said that, I've been having personal connection problems more f...

My only objection to Fritzl is that he's a bit naff, and possibly will become quite dated (with apologies to whoever spent time creating the dialogue, just my 2p).

I looked into the GOUDA issue, turns out it isn't valid in Countdown because it's capitalised. CHEDDAR and CHESHIRE, for example, aren't allowed either. All of these are named after places.
