Re: Birthday Championship Spoilers For Friday February 1st 2

Great game Kirk

I think that was better than your first max game ALAMEDA and CULTIGEN were quality spots.

Were there any contestants in the green room with a solver checking the maxes round by round?

4 large

I have been looking into learning the 4 large method. it says on one guide 75 and 50 turn into 2 and 3. and if you can solve the solution using 2 and 3 you can solve it using the 50 and 75. so say 100, 75, 50, 25, 8, 4 turns into 100, 3, 2, 25, 8, 4 and the solution is 902 i can get it by doing 8+4-...

Hi, does anyone know if there are any plans to port the apterous software onto an iphone format.

I think it would be a great seller and would be brilliant to play apterous on the go.

Not sure if Charlie would know how to do this.
