Innis 119-101 Kirk

Both of us suffered a bit from poor decision-making; both of us had FOLKIE, I had CUBAGES and he presumably had LUPOID. Overall it was very close, and by virtue of marginally winning the 'who can press P fastest' contest, I scraped through. Unlucky Kirk, cheers for the game.

In your face. Now do my recap.

PS sorry to everyone for holding this up, I applied for aptoSOS months ago and didn't foresee a downtrend in my Apterous frequency.

I've emailed Howard who's up next to play Ben, as I know he hasn't been around on Apterous lately. He's chosen to withdraw from the competition as he's not got time to play. So looks like it's Ben vs Corby next.

NO.

Same happened to Charlie and he kept his same scores.

So your next target is... JON CORBY.

Ben & I are aiming for about 21:30 tonight to play our game.

(In case anyone's wondering, this didn't happen. We'll try again over the next few nights hopefully, I probably wasn't quite specific enough that I needed to start by 21:30 at the latest!)

This was our second game, the first died during round one (in which Ben had PERINEUM to my BUMPIER), so that was harsh on him. I think he should be invited back next series.

She's called Jennifer Hunter now but she hasn't been on Apterous since November, unless she's gone and changed her name again.

Despite one particularly excruciating bit of incompetence from both of us, a classic game settled by a last-second conundrum spot. Bring on Martin Bishop. :)

Easy. Whenever any games is affected by the change in any way (including words offered by DC), the whole game has to be replayed.

No, I'll just edit the recap if the contestant offers an ODE3 word and I'll just use CountMax.

Wilson 95 - 99 Bishop

The run of one-win champions continues. Very close game with invalid words playing a big part. Ben was particularly unfortunate not to be allowed HIDALGOES.
