Test CL 1.1 is uploaded to kongregate!

- added some words to the dictionary.
- added a link to this forum inside the game (you can see it every time you finish a game).

... and more changes, test it and tell me what you think.

Thanks a lot.

Anyone know a pub where to watch countdown show on tv?

Thank you Jon

Hi, I am going to visit London next week (first time). I will be there for 2 days only and I would like to know places to see and good restaurants.

Anyone can post a route to follow for 2 days?

I prefer the opinions of this forum people than other spanish forum

Thanks a lot

I am working in a better list of words for the next version of the game. Sorry for that.

Good luck Chris!!

Woo! Awesome, and even more so for using Kongregate! I'm addicted to it ( level 39 ), and there are very few word games on there so seeing this was amazing. 5/5'd and favourited. Hope it gets badges! :D Thanks a lot. Badges, I am thinking about it. It sounds great. You have seen 1.0 lite version, I...

I don't know why posterize is not in the dictionary of the game. I usually play spanish version and so don't check if any word is missing. Sorry for that.

I hope you don't find missing words anymore. It is amazing you have discovered this in your first game!!

Hello all, I would like to share with you a game programmed by myself several years ago. I decided to do this game for training before participate on spanish version of countdown. I defeated 116 opponents in a row ( I think this is an international record ) and friends of mine who played this test d...

Excellent!!

Very good information, I have more than I need.

Thanks a lot.

Hello all, I am here again after only 3 years. :-) I want to see my wife as contestant on spanish "countdown" show, and I think this is the better site to talk about audition. First of all, I will explain spanish audition: -You must call by phone or email until you get choose by them. -You...

Hey, I am here again!

Thanks a lot for all the replies. Spanish people think Inmaculada won because she was very very lucky with her turns. A 18 point word in round 11, and no other 9 letter-words for me in the game. I lose my turn on round 4 with a easy number game. I was very tired. This match was the fifth for me in a...

Hi all again!! I came back to play with new contestants. There is a new rule on tv spanish show: 30 victories max per contestant. I had win 101 times before this rule, so I only could win 131 times max. But I only win 116 times, and then I lose in my 117º game against a woman called Inmaculada. Fina...

What's with the word "suite" or am I being stupid? My english is not very good, so I typed suite cause I saw at another topic. :D Here is the web page with all the links to my most exciting games on youtube: http://juego-cifrasyletras.blogspot.com/2008/04/videos-de-programas-completos-de....

I was asking about how the countdown contestants go to record the tv game show. How many games are recorded per day? How long does it take for recording the entire program?

That's right, plurals are not allowed.

I have a bot for irc channels with english dictionary, another bot with french dictionary, and one with italian dictionary. Only need the frecuency for getting letters like tv show. If anyone know this, I can finish them.

Cifras y Letras is the name of Countdown tv show in Spain. I am a Cifras y Letras contestant on Canal Sur 2 channel. I have win 101 times and I must come back to play with new contestants next season. Differences: There are four rounds consisting of a number game followed by two letter games. Words ...

Is the same in DCeDL and Countdown?

You can play with cylbot at this link:

If you don't know spanish, don't worry, just type: !cyl when you come in, and enjoy with number rounds

It does make me think, I remember when players like Chris Wills and Julian Fell were on that they could certainly have approached the 50 mark has they not been stopped. Also, how good is the standard on Cifras y Letras? One player offered a six when there was a nine, for example (even I had a seven...

There are 3 versions of Cifras y letras on spanish tv channels, you can watch on internet only one of them (telemadrid), I'm probably being very stupid but I can't work out how to watch actual programmes on their site. Do you have a link Francisco? Many thanks. Of course, here is the web page with ...

It doesn't sound like the Spanish season has finals at the end, so just to explain, in England the best eight players in the series come back and play a knockout competition, the winner gets the dictionaries and the losing finalist gets £1000 (I think). There is no finals at the end, I was talking ...

Interesting that, in the case of a draw, they seem to allocate the points on the basis of whose round it is. For example, if it was my round and I got a 7 and so did my opponent, only I would get the points. Maybe Francisco could confirm if that is correct. I suppose it makes you more willing to de...

Hello everybody from Spain. I am Francisco Segura Morales, a contestant from countdown spanish version. I have been playing on chat rooms since 2003, and I have been watching french and spanish tv shows during this time too. I was fired from my job because of my participation on tv game show. I have...

I watched on tv french show too. I know countdown show but never watched on tv, only on internet videos. I am a contestant on the spanish tv version called "cifras y letras". The main difference is you can win matchs with no limit. I have win 101 times and I must come back soon to start th...

Spanish people plays countdown game on chat rooms since 2003. You all can play there because numbers rounds are the same like english version. I would like to see international games online.
