Recaps
Today's second quarter-final will be my last recapped game of Series 61. Unfortunately you'll have to wait until Monday morning at the earliest for the recap, as I shall be away for the weekend getting pissed in Dublin, but I'll endeavour to get it posted as quickly as possible on my return.
Not sure yet whether I'll be continuing with my bi-weekly recaps in the new year - if anyone else (who isn't James Robinson) fancies having a go, drop me a PM.

Re: Recaps
Are you not doing the final next week?
Enjoy getting arseholed in Dublin!
(Oh, and James is doing a sterling job on the recaps IMO)
2nd edit: Oh yeah, bi-weekly. I understand now.

Re: Recaps
Don't worry Phil, I wasn't even going to offer. Having 2 consecutive days is a handful as it is. Having 3 in a row could easily send me into meltdown.Phil Reynolds wrote:Not sure yet whether I'll be continuing with my bi-weekly recaps in the new year - if anyone else (who isn't James Robinson) fancies having a go, drop me a PM.

Re: Recaps
If I were a proof-reader, I'd avoid terms such as "bi-weekly" as they can cause confusion.

Re: Recaps
I have become disenchanted with the intolerance on the forum and will also be stepping back from it.
Therefore, my Friday recap slot, which I share with Phil, is also up for grabs after the Final next week.

Re: Recaps
This is a shame, Allan.
I have always assumed a little banter was no bad thing but maybe some people are going beyond the pale.
To be honest I feel only James Robinson has had cause to complain, recenty, but he gives as good as he gets.

Re: Recaps
As no one else appears to have stepped up to the plate, and in a bid to prevent the total Robinsonization of Recapsville (although I have to say, James, you're doing a good job ), I'm willing to have a go at the Friday recaps. Although my reasons for stopping (getting them posted quickly enough to satisfy the salivating masses) haven't really gone away, I'm kinda missing it and unless anyone vehemently objects, I'll be re-donning my recap hat in the next couple of days.
And while I'm here, a belated Happy New Year to everyone!

Re: Recaps
I'm definitely not against it at all, it'd be great for a Countdown legend such as yourself to do the Friday recaps. Anyway, I too am an anti-Robinsonizationist.Mike Brown wrote:As no one else appears to have stepped up to the plate, and in a bid to prevent the total Robinsonization of Recapsville (although I have to say, James, you're doing a good job ), I'm willing to have a go at the Friday recaps.
