Add China and Myanmar as of today, putting me on 16. For the zero people who care about US states, last summer's Washington makes it 5 (or 7 with drive throughs)

I can't think of any more lyrics. Luke's gonna get a pretty good octotal but nobody cares cause he was like 8 months later than that guy who knocked the bar into low earth orbit. Peace~

Thomas Carey

A bit like Jen, I've got rid of a decent number in my time and have only regretted one or two. I haven't thought much about the getting it down to 100 thing, but I don't think I'd find it too difficult. For those who say they never unfriend, how have you managed to avoid ever friending someone who ...

Thomas Carey

I never unfriend, not really sure why. Up to like 1500 'friends', a lot of whom I don't really know. I guess I like to keep the connection, occasionally I'll talk to someone from school or something about something they post and it's nice to keep in touch. There's definitely a lot of those people wh...

This is good

I quite enjoyed this episode of Celebrity Countdown. The scoring system is okay but gives an unfair advantage to the contestant solving the conundrum. I think that the conundrum should only be worth five points if this scoring system is used. That's exactly how it's done on flat scoring on apterous...

I'm gonna invoke my SPECIAL VALUABLE TOP SECRET INSIDER INFORMATION i watched some of the recordings and say that yeah rachel did a different numbers tip every episode. THey did go in some vaguely sensical order, it's just they're broadcasting out of order (maybe to split up the people onmultiple sh...

Yeah, was at the recordings for the first few games of series 82 (broadcast in the new year) over a month ago. They'll be fine

Don't mind people putting on makeup (or hot food if it doesn't take the piss) but agree with the others. I'd like to add - people who are on their own but sit in a bay of 4/6 (can make an exception if the train is super empty) because so many times there's nowhere for us to go when I'm in a group of...

Let's ask this community of almost exclusively white people!

It didn't make a massive difference to the top 8. A few people changed places, but only Graeme Cole dropped out, going from 8th all the way down to 12th. Tom Cary took his place going from 10th to 7th. The biggest change within the top 8 was Eddy Byrne going from 3rd to 6th. Robbed! (of an E, mostl...

What about, say, people I first knew through countdown but then met entirely coincidentally through other stuff?

Spooky.

People you already knew definitely shouldn't count. Disagree. Why should certain people count for some people but not others? I’m happy to accept that people who don’t really do countdown but got dragged along to the odd event shouldn’t count as countdowners, which is why I put some people in brack...

Rewriting my list. (accurate as of lockdown times) Joseph Krol, Sophie Krol (ancient/childhood friends, also you can add Emily Zhang and Wilf Carey if you count people I know from real life I've dragged to co-events as countdowners) Callum Todd, Jamie McNeill, Zarte Jones, Jen Steadman, Andy Platt, ...

Jason Larsen. Did I win? I think I won. :o :o :o How did this happen? Was in Seattle for mate's wedding. Figured I should meet up with Jason, but all the places nearby were closed cause I was late getting back from taking down said wedding. Ended up chatting in his apartment for like 45 minutes.

Thomas Carey

Jason Larsen.

Did I win? I think I won.

(also Anthony Endsor, Eddy Byrne, Ann Dibben, Callum Todd for about five seconds, one of Dan Byrom's accomodations, two of Matty's, three of Krol's, think that's it)

I love when my stats randomly become relevant

46 points to tie with Dylan's highway ever octotal, 72 to get 1000, there's not really any higher targets because this is so unprecedented. His average has been over 132, so he'll probably get a few here. With a game in hand, he's beaten my octotal and indeed that of all but 8 people (wouldn't it be...

sources say that on 7 June, Elliott Mellor will replace Theresa May as highest scoring octochamp or something

are we going to actually talk about the games of the community member currently airing, who is on track to break pretty much every record in countdown's 37 year history, or are we just going to get distracted by baiting some dumb kid again?

Dinos has 813 points after 7 and thus probably won't make the 1000 club. He probably will octo, though, so let's watch him do that

Me at the co:Ann2 final. Was like 7 behind going into the last numbers, Jen 6 smalls me but it's easy, we end round early and I thunderously cock up the solution by trying something dumb, Jen wins the event and goes on to solve hemipenis
