Re: Ask Graeme?

Tough one this – hope it's doable – starting right at episode 1 and running through all episodes in order, is it possible to produce an all-time contestant ranking list using the 'Glicko-2 system' used on Apterous? Would be VERY interesting to see, don't you think? Don't think it would be possible ...

Re: Episode 5723

Didn't someone else mention that once on deal or no deal they removed an episode, after the contestant was caring for a relative at the same time, and the relative afterwards died, and they wanted the program removed due to emotional stress? Perhaps, on a less disturbing note this could have been th...

Re: Ask Graeme?

Sorry if it's unanswerable from your database or if it's already been answered - who's the oldest contestant to ever go on the show?

Re: Gizoogle

This may possibly be the best thing ever.

Edit: Do this to the homepage of this site! It's quite entertaining if you have the right users being the most recent posters too.

Re: Spoilers for Thursday August 29th 2013 (Series 69 Prelim

Very well done on your 6 wins Gemma! Awesome game today, despite the fact the fist pump when he buzzed in may have been unsportsmanlike but I found it funny :P both very likeable characters and hopefully we'll see you in the finals!

GENTOOS as an equaller in R7.

Re: Spoilers for Thursday August 29th 2013 (Series 69 Prelim

Quick question: Is there an allocated job for whoever does the spoiler threads or do you and JR just do them as nobody else does?...

Re: Spoilers for Tuesday August 27th 2013 (Series 69 Prelim

Well played again Gemma. Some nice touches in this episode. Particularly the whole TODGERS exchange (presumably unedited) being left in, with Susie collapsing in laughter and Nick's incredulity that it's not something served with mash. Also Nick mentioning to Rachel at the end that he was going to ...

It was up just now, I was playing a game, then it froze at 10.42am. It's apparently down now.

When it was up it was up, when it was down it was down, when it was only half-way up it was neither up nor down!
Mind if I ask who you are on apterous? This is un-necessarily bugging me...

Re: They say you learn something new everyday.....

Yeah, I was also witness to that Hyper Urban Dictionary game between Innis and Andy. Innis took an early lead with WANKBAGS for 8, Andy tried to pull it back by trying ARSEMANGLING for 12, but sadly it was disallowed. OCTOPENIS appeared as a beater at one point as well T'was actually MANBAGS, WANKB...

Re: They say you learn something new everyday.....

I learnt my account was approved. Yay :D

Also, I learnt that playing countdown by the urban dictionary's a lot harder than it looks.

(Hosted the first ever game of countdown by that 'lexicon') :P

Re: COLIN X- Countdown in Lincoln, 25th January 2014

Life! I can post again!

I presume it was you that approved this account, so cheers, Ben. :)

I also intend to make the 25th, so even though it's early days, I'm a provisional :)
