154 out of 154 - highest score in Countdown history, maximum-scoring game. Many congratulations, Tom Stevenson!! You are one cool customer.

Not bad
Love the shithousery of the 6 small in round 14 from challenger
Grats on a solid max - mainliner + brimstone aren't the easiest 9s to spot.
Keep it up, i reckon you might octo at this rate

Incredible, just incredible! I witnessed history from afar and never would I have thought someone would beat Elliott Mellor's record three years ago. Anything is possible, and you Tom, just proved that today. You deserve like the highest honours here on Countdown, hats off to you. Our admiration and respect for you just increased by many folds, marvellous performance!

This max (and record score ) was particularly impressive to me because all of the words were reasonably familiar - no Apto-isms! Hats off to Tom - I'm starting to think he has what it takes to win at least six!
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.

yo what the fuck Tom
In seriousness though, you fucking rocked it on that game! Now I hope you have some more tricks up your sleeve after that banger of a win. And I didn't expect you to get your first nine(s) this way either, very well done to you!
EDIT: Side note to all wiki editors, how do you get pictures on the wiki? I think I have a better one than what's currently on the page

Wow, brilliant performance Tom! And a max game to top it off too, congrats!
MAINLINER was a fantastic spot. I also missed OVERSIGHT ironically.
Edit: Just seen you've uploaded a photo now

Thanks Toby, I tried finding a good shot of the moment and I think I did alright; of course, crop the image if doesn't look pristine enough.Toby McDonald wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 10:29 pmhttps://wiki.apterous.org/Special:UploadAndres Sanchez wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 6:05 pm EDIT: Side note to all wiki editors, how do you get pictures on the wiki?

You are a great ambassador for the game too... which is another reason to love that you are now the record holder!
I think your TV run will attract plenty of new friendly easy-going people to Countdown. Like attracts like.
Congrats!
