Ta, missed the max by 1, 3 days running - absolutely gutting lol.

Usually wouldn't expect to see EMPORIUM but after EMPORIA yesterday, was a bit easier.

Zarte Siempre

I've got this one to hand as well - bear in mind I let someone pick who I'm playing for me, if it's 2 newbies - and my little brother picked "the one in red" - so that's who the scoring is based on. http://24.media.tumblr.com/d12e958aa122dc8a7e067ee159d22e7d/tumblr_mnkujwmPvF1rp2s00o1_500....

I'm just gonna do this, rather than type out my beaters etc. - may as well make some use out of how competitive I get against the TV

TOTEMISM for a beater in round 10.

TENURAL (R1) and SEROTINE (R13) for a couple of alternatives.

You just broke my heart Jack - thought I had my first ever against-the-TV max game

Zarte Siempre

Yeah, the last I heard from anyone is that I should be on "early" next series - what's defined as early though, I'm not entirely sure

Zarte Siempre

...yes?

Zarte Siempre

Are you calling me redundant? *sob*

Zarte Siempre

Put me down as a maybe.

Zarte Siempre

I feel I should've noticed this quicker...

or possibly not - I'm undecided.

Zarte Siempre

Ooh - I do like this idea... let me think.

I learnt that my Dad does a worryingly good camp voice.

Zarte Siempre

I always play the champ. If it's 2 newbies I get someone to pick the one they think looks smarter. I used to do that, but when you get series like S67 where there were 7 octochamps, playing the same people for 56 episodes does become slightly more boring than it used to. I like variety. I disagree ...

FUCKING GENIUS!

Best debut ever?

In answer to your question, James - I have no idea, but Alex Horne would be my best bet.

Zarte Siempre

Apparently they didn't want to mention streaming...

Zarte Siempre

Love the gag, although wasn't it Barry Norman that said that to Mikey Lear, not Barry Cryer?

Zarte Siempre

I can't be bothered to check this, but at a guess, is it the targets from the 30CC?

It's being clouded by the tears of your PC after you making it put up with that crap... ;P

I'm sure as many of you know, after the awesome success of last year's CoBliviLon ran by the lovely Amie, there's going to be another one this year, which I'm co-hosting with her.

Well, I didn't count the conundrum as it had been mentioned to me previously that it had come up, and I wouldn't have got it otherwise, but what was the max, cause I had 110 for the first 14 rounds, I think? If you matched me on everything but then beat me on the numbers I missed and nailed UNMEANT...

Well played again, Andy. Chuffed to say after being utterly thumped playing against you/the TV yesterday, that I beat you today by a point. Don't let it happen again, you've got a reputation to uphold

Zarte Siempre

I do feel like this has got more into attacking other people than actually debating the issue *sigh* I think this might go to prove how much progress needs to be made with discussing mental illness. As someone who has 3 psychological conditions (diagnosed by medical professionals, before someone cal...

Urgh, part of me wants really wants to go through definite personal experience to lambast/confirm various points in this thread, but part of me really doesn't. I'll just say that Dave, your inability to grasp a simple truth of mental health is bordering on offensive to those who it's been relevant t...

Tacky? How dare you - I loved that show when I was younger.

So sleepy. Even now. So so sleepy.

Honestly though, probably the best experience of my life.

I'll be writing my full personal review at some point

Thanks to Mark especially though, for coming up with the idea, and then allowing me to get involved.

Seriously though, I think we all plan to be there a couple of hours in advance, so feel free to say hey then if you really want to.

Seriously though, another great game, and well played both.
