NEOLOGISM is epic. Still didn't get it, despite me seeming to have it as a conundrum many times.

Woot! I'm back in business! Approximately 166 hours since I last had the internet on my laptop, it is now working again. Return to apterous expected soon after the show finishes.

COZIEST in the doziest round

Joseph Krol

If I had taken part I would have got a max game, as I hope most other forumites would've.

Joseph Krol

If you desperately need to make numbers up, I can try to get my sister to partake.

Joseph Krol

If any game can be called a fail, this surely must be it.

Joseph Krol

Do you have notes of the game or a superhuman memory, Rich?

If a guy - let's call him Bob - started watching countdown with no vocabulary, but only memorized the conundrum answers. If he had sufficient brainpower to unscramble conundrums instantly assuming he knows the word, how long would it take before he solved a conundrum? Basically, how many conundrums ...

I normally have 2 slices at a time. Some of Ryan's comments remind me of a puzzle I once did, where a guy had about 10 things to toast and he liked them all toasted for different times, and you had to work out the lowest time he would have to spend toasting if he had a four slot toaster. Will have a...

Think COMPLEATS was removed as Charlie really wanted ECTOPLASM as a conundrum .

COMPLEATS could be the scramble.

This tourney is a test of skill, not timekeeping. And by the way, the final will be a 14 rounder.

How can the plural of some TV cook's name be a word?
