Spoilers for Thursday October 16th 2014 (S71 P67)

Post by Jordan F »

This is the last Countdown of the week, and we find ourselves with Dan McColm on 6 wins. I suspect even if he were to lose today, he''d make the finals, but it can't hurt to get more wins, especially since he's on pace for a 900+ run. Will number 7 arrive?

Join James for the recap later.

I got it after the time but the 932 was doable - (75+10)×(9+7-5)-3=932

Glad Dan has got past the VOMITER stage to get OVERTIME in R10.

Well I was winning until he turned up the gas for the last 3 rounds. Nice finish!

You must have missed the standard method in the last numbers then. 576+2 rather than 567+11 was the standard method.

Straight in with the factorisation as always. I wonder how many you get that don't factorise.
