[peter lee]

Main Event
Flight C or the lowest one or whatever

James Bradley 2 - 0 Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin 17 - 95 James Bradley
Miss Carol coming up in Round 14 Could have had 24 instead
James Bradley 72 - 42 Rhys Benjamin
Had a 4 large selection (by me ) and target came up as 952. Unfortunately the small numbers were 2 and 8. James got 952, and afterwards I told him about the James Martin 952...

((((100 + 3) x 6) x 75) - 50) / 25 = 952

Have trouble still trying to work this numbers one out !!!!

Rating of 2190 now - highest I've ever been. Rex, I'm coming for ya...

A bit more info - Game 1: Kirk maxed it bar the final numbers game.
Game 2: I chickened COLUMBITE before we both pencilled SPEARWORT

Also, I've knocked Rex down to 2193 from 2220-odd for you, Kirk I'll leave the last few points to you.

[Howard Somerset]

I've tried aptomailing both of my first week's opponents. First time I've tried using aptomail. How do we see replies? ...

It's just a web-based front to an e-mail address, Howard - so whatever you send just gets sent to the e-mail address they have registered on apterous, whilst remaining secure as you don't get to see the e-mail address. So them receiving it depends on them checking their e-mail, and has nothing to do with the apterous website itself. The e-mail they receive is addressed as from your registered e-mail address so that they can reply via regular e-mail.

Thanks for the explanation Matt. All very sensible. Now played one of my two opponents, and in touch with the other via PM.

[Adam Gillard]

Speed Daemon result: Adam Gillard 117 - 79 Lesley Hines

I was slightly disappointed to miss a 9 (LITREAGES) and even more disappointed to chicken a pencil (ROWBOATS), but I can't complain really as I scored in every round and this was way better than the other Speed Daemon games that I've played. Lesley played well too even though she won't admit it. 8 maxes and just behind on the conundrum is very good for a speed game.

[Ben Wilson]

Speed demon- Wilson 92-70 Doohan

Tough one that.

[Edward McCullagh]

Speed 15

Lesley Hines 84 - 100 Edward McCullagh

Very good game that.

[Howard Somerset]

Flight B. I beat Martin Long 2 - 1

Howard 67 - 76 Martin

Martin 59 - 77 Howard

Howard 75 - 70 Martin

All three games very close, two going to crucial conundrums, and the other only settled during the final numbers game.
In fact, I left thinking I'd lost the third game. It was only when putting the scores up here that I realised that I'd actually won it.

Thanks Martin. Three good games.

[Ned Pendleton]

After a rather poor performance in my other speed15 this was more satisfying. Thanks for the game, Tom.

Junior Mint: John Gillies 2 - 0 Tom Chafer-Cook

Tom Chafer-Cook 67 - 74 John Gillies
John Gillies 98 - 66 Tom Chafer-Cook

Just noticed the top result should read Main event flight A...not B
Maybe this is why the result hasn't been updated while the Junior one has.

Although maybe Tom should forfeit the game for the equivalent of signing an incorrect scorecard
Only joking, Tom. Really enjoyed our games. Well played and thanks.

[Kirk Bevins]

Just to keep you updated - I've messaged Dan Seasmith twice and Andrew's messaged him once and he still hasn't replied and we have one day left. I'm getting worried..

[Kai Laddiman]

Junior Mint:

Kai Laddiman 102 - 97 Hugh Binnie
Kai Laddiman 93 - 84 Hugh Binnie

In both games he was ahead at the conundrum, and he had already buzzed in on the first conundrum, so the win felt unjustified.

Speed 15:

Kai Laddiman 93 - 75 Hugh Binnie

Some good spots from both of us.

Thanks for the games Hugh, well played.

[Graeme Cole]

Just to keep you updated - I've messaged Dan Seasmith twice and Andrew's messaged him once and he still hasn't replied and we have one day left. I'm getting worried..

I've hardly seen him this week either. I'm supposed to be playing him in the main event.
