Spoilers For Friday March 12th 2010

Post by James Robinson »

Well, the week is approaching its natural climax, and we still have Kevin as champ, as he has been all this week. Can he reach five before the break :?:

I think Pam Ayres has been very good in DC again this week. As Jack said in Monday's spoilers:
She's definitely one of my favourite DC guests from the older generation.
Oh, by the way, if there are any Norwich City fans reading this, prepare to be shot down tomorrow and probably turn into the stuffing of one of Delia's pies. :lol:

A tiny bit better spoiler thread starter today, I think.

If anyone thinks they can do any better, be my guest.

Maybe someone from Carlsberg would do better. After all they don't do c4countdown spoiler threads, but if they did, they'd probably be the best in the world. ;) :) :D :mrgreen: :lol: 8-)

Can't wait for Mondays spoiler thread.
I think you should start it soon before someone spoils it for you.

Another crazy shirt Kevin.

Simpler numbers (2nd, I think) within time:

(50 - 100 / 25) x 9 = 414

Oooh :!: What a very close game. Very good and tight game. :shock:

I managed a 14-max game, which I was well happy with, although I missed the max game by missing FLEAPITS, which, ironically, I got in my only max game on Apterous at the moment. :oops:

Bit disappointed that Kevin didn't try for 2 vowels at the end of the first letters, as the A & O would've made NEUROGLIA for 9, and for not trying for an E for ELEVATORS in round 9, but luckily E wasn't the next vowel, but LEVATORS is still a good 8. But, I suppose not everyone sees words like that, while they're just being put up on the board.

Still, very good week for Kevin. Well done. ;) :) :D :mrgreen: 8-)

I'm just not a "five vowels" guy; I went consonant at the end hunting an N for UNDERLING.
Oh, cackwires!
