Discuss anything that happened in recent games. This is the place to post any words you got that beat Dictionary Corner, or numbers games that evaded Rachel.

Spoilers for Friday 19 February 2016 (Series 74, Prelim 20)

Post by Johnny Canuck »

Our very own Paul Erdunast hit the ground running yesterday with a 12-maxer debut that bettered the incumbent champion by 90 points. In this final game of the week (and the recording session), can he repeat... or beat... this feat?

Tune into the show today and find out the answer, or join Anthony E later for the recap.
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.

They must have had to dig pretty deep into the vaults to find four Y tiles. Or do the tiles on the conundrum scramble ("COUNTDOWN") and solution ("CONUNDRUM") boards only appear to be visible simultaneously due to video editing?

It's done at the same time, but they take some letters from the vowels/consonants piles to make the conundrums. Only 1 W and Y were picked during the show, but they obviously have some extras. :)

A great 12 maxer to compliment yesterday's 13 maxer for Paul. He seems to be taking this like a duck to water. ;) :) :D

NORTENOS in round 2.

3rd Numbers Alt.: (((7 x 10) + 1) x 9) + 4 - 100 = 543

As Johnny Cannuck said in yesterday's thread, it was 12 maxes yesterday (missing two letters and a numbers).
