This recap has a little backstory: I wanted to do one early for once and I had it finished by 5:30pm, and I thought I’d uploaded it. I saw that the word document with it on was still open, so I closed it without saving after having though I uploaded it already. http://fotozup.com/wp-content/uploads/...

Come on West Yorkshire!

If this Craig guy gets less than 6 wins then Victoria James is definitely through, SEDATIONS or not.

In. Where do you sign up?

Nick now moves into the #4 spot on the leaderboard, and a score of around 50 will take him to the #3 spot and a guaranteed spot in the finals too.

48 will put him as joint #3 seed. Not like you to be unprecise!

Thomas Carey

So do I. Indra and Betty are OK (though I still prefer Jasmine) but definitely not Bunny.

Thomas Carey

So what's the format? Same as the ones ending in -ester?

Countdown recap for Friday 27 April 2012. Here’s the last Careycap of April 2012. Just so you know, this one’s going to be even worse than usual. C1: Champion Nick Hall (1 win, 76 points.)

I think James likes Kerry. Kerry did say she likes to take those with Asperger syndrome out on trips. http://www.c4countdown.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=708&p=45308&hilit=AAT#p45308 Just looked at that topic - never knew there were so many of my kind on this forum! Unlucky Kerry, you play...

Really sorry but I completely forgot this recap. Was reminded at 22:11 on Sunday by JR. :roll: All errors are mine. Now here’s your Careycap. Countdown recap for Sunday 22 April 2012.

Really bad at letters, especially CSW, but that just means someone gets an easy first match. In.

Thomas Carey

So, after Graeme filled in for me last week while I took an 11-day break from life, I’m back with today’s supposedly unlucky Careycap. *cue you all groaning* Also, this is the 9000th topic on c4countdown! -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Confused as to whether you've got to register or not.

If yes - in.
If no - in anyway.

Cool. Edited.

Seeing as I won't be doing today's recap, I'll be doing the spoiler thread instead. The current champion is apterite Rob Gibney, who had an impressive win over 3-time winner John Bird yesterday with a score of 105. He will be trying for a second win while Anneka Rice ends her time in the corner (for...

Are you sure about this? There's a "Rob Mackay" from Scotland on apterous too.

Oh right, haven't seen him. I was told he was an aprteite so I thought it would be Robin. Thanks.

I got some shower gel for my 13th birthday (it's my 14th next Wednesday, so that's nearly a year ago). In July/August, I learned that that brand had gone out of business so I didn't want to use whatever was left (about 8%). I didn't want to use other shower gel because my parents would know and go m...

Me and Jeff are currently trying to see how we can incorporate this idea into COHUD, so it might be coming to a CO-event near you soon. ;) :) :D How about having a pause between the 'prelims' and finals, in which the eight Group A players play (maybe in teams with who they're playing next) and the ...

Lots of people have talked about this, but there has never been an official topic about it. So, now that Nick has settled in, who is your favourite presenter?

I can't find more than a 7-letter word in the next row - e.g. ALFALFA, where the plural isn't allowed

SHAHADAHS for 9. May be more.
Don't think there's more than a 1 (all single letters are allowed) on the bottom row due to its vowellessness.

I found PEPPERWORT, PERPETUITY, PROPRIETOR, REPERTOIRE, and TYPEWRITER. Makes five. There may even be more.

Also quite liked Jocelyn too, she had a nice aura around her. Hope she can win a few more. She was really good in the letters round I thought.

Mine said no age. Apart from that, it was all correct (mostly gaming) except for one major thing. 'Clothing - Apparel' was there. Don't have any idea why.
