I really liked David Sandbach and I am shocked and disgusted that this annoying woman fluked victory against him.

Richard Brittain

I was really hoping this would be for a new sub-forum about wild fungi. I voted no.

Richard Brittain

If you're going by what they were like when they were on the show I fail to see on what basis you could place Conor as high as 2nd. I don't think you could point to a patch of games and say he was particularly exceptional there. Well, he was pretty exceptional for most of the games he played in and...

Richard Brittain

No, my serious ones would be: 1. Paul Gallen 2. Conor Travers 3. Julian Fell 4. Craig Beevers 5. Mark Tournoff 6. Paul Howe I haven't seen any of Harvey Freeman or the other old super-contestants, but I think that with the aid of computers to develop their skills today the best contestants are bette...

Richard Brittain

Probably:

1. Amey Deshpande

2. Harry Peters

3. Frank Mulvey

4. Jeffrey Hansford

5. Jon Corby

Richard Brittain

I shall participate, Martin.

Richard Brittain

Looks as though it could be some kind of morel. A rare American variety perhaps.

Richard Brittain

Not bad. Is it edible?

Richard Brittain

Adolf Hitler.

Richard Brittain

Interesting. There is also 'Chicken of the Woods', which does look quite tasty:

I suppose there are a few types of mushroom that taste like chicken.

One day I would like to try living in the woods for a few months consuming only fungi and water.

Richard Brittain

is there any real differences between Mushrooms and Toadstools? I think that a toadstool is distinguished by its round and fleshy head, and general thickness. Example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/northyorkshire/content/images/2006/10/25/toadstool_400x300.jpg You could imagine a toad just sitting on it. A ...

Richard Brittain

Weirdos.

Richard Brittain

Will it be a regular feature? Maybe we should set up a dedicated sub-forum. About fungi or Jono's anatomy? Or both? It could be both, because there is actually a fungus called Jew's Ear. http://www.uksafari.com/jpeg2/jewsear1.jpg No joke. It is edible but 'quite tasteless'. Anyway, I think making a...

Richard Brittain

Jono, you were so excited in making that post, you made 2 typos.

For the record, I do intend to make a thread about your penis, but that will obviously go in the 'Countdown - Spoilers' section, not here.

Richard Brittain

Does anyone else here have an interest in wild fungi? Recently I have become interested. I have come across a lot of Birch Polypores in local woodlands lately. Some of you may know this fungus as the 'Razor Strop Fungus' or 'Birch Bracket'. According to my book it's too tough to eat, but I have read...

Why?

A lot of people here don't like Des O'Connor. I'm not sure why, I think he is a decent host.

Richard Brittain

Ah, I wasn't aware of that, Jason. Thanks for the info.

Richard Brittain

An interesting observation, Corby.

Maybe it's better if the subject of the joke (Jono) doesn't get the joke, so at least he won't get upset about it.

At least me, you and Jason Larsen can have a laugh about this at Jono's expense, because we all understand it.

Richard Brittain

Richard Brittain

This isn't something I've ever thought about and it doesn't bother me.

Richard Brittain

Jason Larsen appreciates my sense of humour.

Richard Brittain

Des O'Connor was at these forums?

Richard Brittain

Yeah, I play casually. I'd say I've lost about £300 on online poker.

Richard Brittain

I get that from a lot of people.

Richard Brittain

I probably didn't. A lot of what you say confuses me.

Richard Brittain

I think it has something to do with the intelligence difference between Americans and the British. I read somewhere that the average American's IQ is something like 20 points lower than the average Briton's. Personally I don't care for IQ tests, but it's a known fact that most people in the world co...

Richard Brittain

You must have been rather bored at the time of making this thread, Jono.

*winning*

Richard Brittain

I played it once because a load of people on a forum I frequented were obsessed with it. I thought it was crap.. Just a load of stupid stick images.. It left me baffled as to why it is so popular in the online community. It is one of those weird things like the TV show Lost, Mozilla Firefox and Sudo...

Richard Brittain

A very interesting question, Jason. Having given this much deliberation I have come to the decision that I probably would say hi, but I wouldn't smile. Therefore, to answer your question 'If any of you met me in real life, would you smile and say hi to me?', my response is no because I would not be ...

Richard Brittain

I had this on while doing something else and didn't write anything down and didn't play properly. But I thought I might have seen DIASPORAS in one of the rounds. Was it? No, I saw that too but then realised that there was only one A. I had 'ariosos' in that round, which was a DC-beater but not as g...

Richard Brittain

I insulted Corby because I thought he was posting as 'Richard Brittain' ('The Fake Richard Brittain'). I now know that it was in fact Jonathan O'Neill. I have insulted O'Neill and apologised to Corby, both in private.

Richard Brittain

Jason, I had already said in your other thread that I was no longer interested in competing in your game.

Also, I have decided that I agree with what my imposter had to say about this game.

The Fake Richard Brittain wrote:It sounds shit.

Richard Brittain

Well, truth and justice has been restored by the moderators. That is, 'John' was and is Richard Brittain. At this time, I am still not certain who the bold impersonator was.

Richard Brittain

Well, this is all very funny. The truth is that I am Richard Brittain. I made an account here called John, because I like the name John, and because I wanted to take part in this special game of Countdown. I doubt many people reading this particularly care who the real Richard Brittain is, but if an...

Richard Brittain

Corby, go and wank over pictures of your mother like you normally do. I am here to actually play in a game of Countdown; you are not welcome in this thread.

Richard Brittain

I think there is a possibility that it was not Corby posting as 'Richard Brittain'. It might have been Jon O'Neill or Soo Reams, but it was probably Corby.

Richard Brittain

Hold on Jason, some loser made an account named 'Richard Brittain'; it is probably Corby. I am Richard Brittain and still wish to compete in this game. I don't want to play Dinos though, because he is heavily anti-anti-semitic. We have to play at 8.30 PM on Sunday, because this was the specified, sp...

Richard Brittain

Hi, my name's Richard Brittain. I deactivated a previous account here, but I just had to make a new account in order to post in this thread. I would love to take part in this very special game of Countdown, Jason. I will make sure that I am available at 8.30 PM on Sunday 24th, for what will probably...
