Is this a separate event or where the after party is taking place?

I thought you said that Edinburgh style was specifically points over wins?

Blame me Martin. For you all I’m Maureen and I’m Martin’s wife I’ve just joined him on here (mainly to make sure he’s not been rude lol 😂).

Odd that you'd need to communicate this way considering that all your posts come from the same IP address, which means you almost certainly live at the same residential address.

He lives down the road 2 doors down across the road so it will be the same IP as it’s for a street.
I was all ready to jump in with a That's Not How This Works, but to my surprise it turns out that multiple ISP subscribers sharing the same public IPv4 address at the same time is in fact a thing which is/has been used by some ISPs.

It's a much-criticised technology (someone else downloads something illegal, the police show up at your door) and it seems to be used mainly on mobile networks rather than home internet connections. So while I can't outright call this a lie, I can certainly roll my eyes in a cynically disbelieving way.

I’m sorting it out I’m calling them tomorrow.
When you do, please post here - we'll call again to ascertain if there is actually a booking.

Or, you can admit that this is clearly a load of nonsense, and save yourself the embarrassment (further to the embarrassment you are already bestowing upon yourself).

Martin - I'll say this as politely as possible.

You're clearly a fan of the show, and have a great knowledge about who's who and seemingly want to get involved.

So I don't understand why you are trying to sabotage things by creating false sign-ups, creating false events and generally making a PITA of yourself.

No-one believes your stories, we all know you are Ashton Hancock, and frankly I'm surprised people are being as nice as they are about it.

The ridiculous wiki nonsense is wasting the time of people who have better things to do too.

It's a real shame - you've obviously got the time and interest to have a positive impact if that's how you choose to channel your energies. Grow up a bit, and stop the games.

Look, I'll be polite - we know you aren't three separate people. The ruse about signing up for CONUT didn't work either - using images you've found on google as your "wedding picture" and "doing a parkrun" doesn't work - reverse image search is a thing. I suggest you stop continuing this, take a long break from the forum, and come back when you've matured - it's a pity because you clearly have an interest in the game, but lack the level of maturity required on an online forum. I'm extremely disappointed, as are many members here - not least James Robinson whose time you have wasted so much of, as well as those on the wiki.

Because they got mentioned, and I had a look at them - then google was employed to expose you. You might as well come clean. You should apologise to all the people whose time you have wasted, and to members of this forum.

I was partially responsible, yes. All that matters is, they clearly are not of "Martin and Maureen Peters", and in fact your usage of them, along with pretending to be a former contestant, is identity theft - quite a serious issue. I'm waiting for your apology to people.
