I thought I'd start a topic off where you can post some of your classic games. I'll start off with the final game of the day - game 6 where there was me on 5/5 wins and three others on 4/5 wins (Dinos, Paul and Kai).

Round 1: W T R A I E T I O

C1: RATITE (6)

Bad miss from Kirk there.

Round 2: T N M I U O V E M

C1: MOMENT (6)
C2: OMENTUM (7)
Score: 0–14 (max 14)

Nice spot from Dinos takes him 14-0 up. Ouch. Is Kirk going to bottle another CO-event yet again?

Round 3: M N D E I A L D O

C1: MELANOID (8)
C2: MELANOID (8)
Score: 8–22 (max 22)

A high probability darren doesn't close the gap...

Round 4: N Y T O A A T R E

C1: ATTORNEY (8)
C2: TREATY (6)
OT: NATATORY (8)
Score: 16–22 (max 30)

C1: AUSPICE (7)
C2: PUBIS (5)
Score: 50–49 (max 67)

And Kirk is in front for the first time in the game. This is turning out to be a classic!

C1: 963. 100x9+75-10-2 (10)

Lovely darrenical 8 from both players.

Round 13: G S S A V T E E U

C1: vestage
C2: STAVES (6)
OT: SUAVEST (7) VAGUEST (7)
Score: 75–73 (max 99)

Kirk saw SUAVEST just out of time which would have put him 15 ahead with 2 to play but he spent most of the time convincing himself that VESTAGE^ was a word. What a plonker.

Round 14: 100, 2, 5, 4, 6, 10. Target: 127.

C1: 127. 6x4+5-2+100 (10)
C2: 127. (6/2)x(10+5-4)+100 (10)
Score: 85–83 (max 109)

And it's a crucial conundrum to decide the winner of CONOT 2009. Whoever got this would win CONOT 2009. If nobody got it, Kirk would win the event.

Round 15: T Y R E F O R C E

C2 buzzes on 1 second to say REFECTORY which is correct.
Score: 85–93 (max 119)

Dinos comes from behind on 1 second, slams his hand down on the table and excitedly writes REFECTORY on his sheet of paper to frustrate Kirk once again.

A really good game with some good spots and bad misses, but I'm not bitter....honest :twisted:

Round 1: M V M O E E B N I

C1: BOVINE (6)
C2: BOVINE (6)

C1: PRAISE (6)
C2: PRAISE (6)

Both players bottled out of risking SAPPIER.

Round 12: S W R I E A S T I

C1: WISTERIAS (18)
C2: SATIRISE (8)
Score: 85–77 (max 97)

And it couldn't have come at a better time - a 9 from Kirk means the lead now swings in his favour. Junaid said he was pleased with SATIRISE and was convinced it'd be a winner.

Round 13: L N P O U O N A E

C1: NOUNAL (6)
C2: PLANE (5)
OT: NAPOLEON (8)
Score: 91–77 (max 105)

Round 14: 100, 50, 75, 25, 4, 5. Target: 118.

C1: 118. 100+5x4-50/25 (10)
C2: 118. (25+5)x4-100/50 (10)
Score: 101–87 (max 115)

Luckily for Junaid a hard numbers game was chosen but luckily for Kirk it was pretty straightforward and he goes into the conundrum 14 ahead.

Round 15: M O N O C H U R L

C2 buzzes on 5 seconds to say LUNCHROOM which is correct.
Score: 101–97 (max 125)

Phew. Another close one and another classic.

I think it's good that these games are documented and there are only two games to go (game 1 and game 2). I'm happy to do both but I want to see someone elses game as I'm sure people that read this forum are sick of seeing games involving me.

People will get something completely different soon, as I intend to do all of mine. Then everyone will see what life is like at the other end of the scale. :cry: But I need to see one from each of games 1 and 2 first, as I don't have the correct order for the scrambled selections.

Yes please, Dinos. PM me the selection orders for all the games, and I'll recap the ones I was involved in, including ours. :)

Does anybody still have the words for any of my games? I'd quite like to do a coupla recaps.
