Hi Graeme, I was wondering how many octochamps in the fifteen round format have scored less than 100 each game? (I originally posted this on March 8th, but there have been no replies. Sorry if my original wording was a bit abrupt.)
I wouldn't worry Peter - Graeme normally visits every few weeks and answers a whole batch of questions - I'm sure he'll get to yours next time he visits!
Hello Graeme, I wanted to ask
1. Who are the perfect number round players, getting maximum points for each number round they've been in? There are likely many who did so in 1 episode but then lost with the letters, so any who you think did a lot will do.
2. What's the shortest word ever played, has any 1 letter words shown up?
There was reference to the fact that yesterday's game featured two players born in the 21st century. My quarter-final game was the 1st finals game to feature two players born after the millennium. I'd also wager that it is the game with the smallest age difference between two players (5 days), but obviously this is very hard to verify, unless anyone can remember anything being mentioned on previous shows?

Graeme Cole is one day younger than me and we played eachother at Colin 2024 if that counts?
