Spoilers for Wednesday 20 July 2016 (Series 75, Prelim 16)

Post by Johnny Canuck »

Today's show will be especially notable to all Apterites, as in his seventh appearance, Stephen Fuller has been pitted against fellow site member Aidan Linge. It is also #6400 in the wiki's catalogue, and 6400 is a perfect square -- 80 * 80. Whose win-loss record will be perfect after today's show -- and who will simply end up as a square? Join JR later for the answer.

P.S.: Special thanks to Ray W for writing yesterday's recap.

EDIT: Fixed date -- thanks AGAIN to Ray.

I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

It's the 20th, and you're welcome.

HOSPITAL for an 8 in R2 if you're not Rob Foster.

I spotted Stephen's DOTTIER error as well, but fortunately this did not affect the final result.

Also another 4th numbers: (25 x 7) + 50 - 10

Yeah, ridiculously great standard by Paul. I almost thought David was going to unfortunately break the low-scoring record for a champion outside of a series finals, but that last numbers game saved him there.

I think he still does have The Record in the new 15-round format.

Can I shake this monkey from my back now? :?

REFUTALS isn't in Lexplorer but is in ODO -- this will need to be fixed.

It might affect the seeding order though, if he reaches the finals?
While I'm here my 4th #s was (7+1)x25 + 10 + 50/10 and my 931 = (50x2 -6) x 10 - 9.

Super!

Needless to say I was irked by the fact DOTTIER was allowed! Had a few nervy rounds to endure!
