COGST Plate final - Reams vs. Gardner

[Martin Gardner]

Just to say that the Plate final is tonight at 7pm on Apterous i.e. in one hour and 18 minutes, if you're reading this less than a minute after I post it, anyway! A recap will be appearing in this thread when the game's finished.

[Charlie Reams]

Lucky you reminded me, I'm still at work.

[Charlie Reams]

Kicking off any minute, so come and spectate now if you're interested!

We're still having a debate about TINKLER as we think it might actually be a dictionary error as it's been allowed before on Apterous... can anyone look at this?

Not in ODE2r as far as I can tell, certainly not anywhere near the entry for TINKLE, that's for sure.

And well done Martin- snapping Charlie's winning streak for repechage/ratings prizes. Ah well, at least he has current national fame to comfort him...

Looks like it was a good game - well done Martin, commiserations Charlie

TINKLER was wrongly allowed on TV fairly recently, Martin, that's probably where you'll have remembered it from. I remember a post from Corby saying "wtf?? They gave [contestant X] 7 points for TINKLER?? It's not in"

But yes well done Martin, you seemed extremely focused throughout the competition and I had a hunch you would go all the way (oo er missus etc.)
