Yes please

You've got the promoted teams wrong - Reading are clearly going to win the playoffs, so you may as well wait till that happens to assign teams

I'll join

Seriously though, after losing out on a £2.19 Bet on the boatrace, I really want to get some revenge in the form of varsity countdown.

I'll accept your challenge on behalf of Oxford.

Edward McCullagh 2 - 1 Thomas Cappleman

2 close games, and one absolute shocker from me.

Edward McCullagh 83 - 94 Thomas Cappleman
Thomas Cappleman 90 - 97 Edward McCullagh

Well done Ed, and good luck!

Couple of good games against Ian, with a crucial in the second (and finally got to use gesneriad, having learnt it ages ago):
Ian Volante 86 - 116 Thomas Cappleman
Thomas Cappleman 93 - 77 Ian Volante

Can I make an exceptionally late application for the qualifiers please?

Hmm, double post

Genocides - Armenian Genocide + Rwandan Genocide = 2 genocides

Alternative for last numbers game (I've only just watched it):

(100/2-1)*(10+2)-9=579

And this was the first game where I actually managed to beat Martin while playing along (excluding when I rewatched my own game)

Of those, it's definitely Settlers, though the various German ones like Carcassonne are also very good.

He really should have gone out this time. When someone in the dance off has almost 3 times as many points from the judges as him, there's a definite problem

I seem to vaguely remember them wanting to film Carol's reaction to the first trick for some reason, but I could be wrong about that. I think I also had a risky word in Round 8, so persumably they decided to save time by cutting out two words being looked up. My Dad now needs to go on Countdown, as ...
