I've been looking forward to seeing Graeme on the show. He is my closest rival on Apterous, we have played 18 times and are tied at 9 a piece. I don't doubt he'll run up bigger scores and do better overall than I did.
Good luck Graeme.

But while theres no way someone as good as you would ever lose to a 60+ year old woman who's only practice comes from watching on TV, you could have just declared the same as her on a few rounds when you were way ahead. That would have been the nice thing to do (thats what Keith wou...

First because of the cube solve, then because of great spots like FORAMINA, but most amusingly because of Ed's annoyance at losing. Does anyone have this episode to post on You Tube?

And something I feel I should add (although I've already said it to him in person) is that I couldn't have come up against a friendlier opponent than Andy - I wish him all the best in any future game(s) he has :) Thanks James for those comments. It was a close game that could have gone either way. ...

My girlfriends daughter who is 15, got EXORCISMS from the audience. Given that she doesn't play and has never heard of apterous thats pretty impressive. Im trying to persude her to apply to go on the show, but GCSE's are more important I guess.

Thanks Joseph, Dan, Josh and Edward for the nice comments. I did wonder if knocking out Michelle might upset her many fans, but she did great to win 4 and I guess the advantage of being an apterite was the difference.

Mine is probably PRASAD, even though its only six, its one of my very few unique words. Its also my girlfriends surname so I figure thats a good enough reason for it to be my best word.
