The problem with that is that it would make the current high scores for any Nasty format with letters basically invincible.
You could just reclassify existing Nasty Numbers 15s and 9s as Old Nasty Numbers 15 Rounders and Old Nasty Numbers 9 Rounders, then start afresh with a new, nastier letters distribution. The old records would still be there in the stats, like when Hyper Numbers Attack went from 30 second rounds to 45 second rounds, all the old 30 second games are still in the database as "Old Hypernumbers Attacks".

Good idea Jim. Maybe the letters could be upside down / inverted or flash on and off like in blind conundrums, although both of those suggestions are ludicrously unnecessary and the latter would probably need a health warning.

Yeah, I guess. If I'm gonna do that I'd want to put a bit more effort into getting the new revision right, maybe making more substantial changes to the letter distribution. Will think about it.

I've thought about doing that a couple of times, half to be useful and half to deliberately not bring up certain shit ideas, but then always decided against it because you might think I was being pushy rather than helpful. If no one else does it, I'll get round to it.

A Numbers Interface plea.

Please, for my sanity, can the Numbers Rounds be changed so that you automatically declare the exact target (and thus get a chance to enter your solution via the number-clicking) if you have otherwise made no declaration. (In other worse, you should automatically start in a position of declaring the exact target, and you have to type in the box to declare anything different.) This is because about 1 round in 100, I forget to click the target number when I've solved the round, thus scoring zero, invariably at some crucial moment. It's driving me absolutely crackers, and not in a positive way.

I can't see how there could be any opposition to autodeclaring the exact target, as it's not going to advantage people who are trying to fudge a solution - these people will simply click the exact target anyway. At the very worst, it will slow down the game by thelengthof the patience bar, as if you really don't have a solution at all, you can wait for the patience bar to run out.



And I'm already pre-empting the response "don't forget to click the exact target then, you dullard Bayfield".

It's a tricky one. The problem with auto-declaring is that it makes fudging an opt-out rather than an opt-in, which I suspect is currently enough to dissuade most people from trying it. It has been suggested before that the interface give you some kind of heads-up if you haven't declared anything with 5 or 10 seconds to go, and I don't know why I've never gotten around to doing this. That would seem to solve your problem most of the time.

The "most missed words" feature in Superstats is useful, but if you've played thousands of games over many months the list gets filled with words you used to miss but now have no trouble spotting. How about a "most missed words in your last N games" feature? Not sure what a sensible value for N would be - too high and it doesn't address the issue, too low and the statistics won't be significant enough to be any use. Perhaps 200?

Also, if we're digging up old feature requests, two things I'd really like to see are the tnetennba for offering a max that's spelt out in the selection, and updated Watchwords.

Perhaps not. Maybe I'm just living in the self-aggrandising hope that a something of Cole might appear one day. :-)

Ta for the reply Charlie. I'd certainly welcome this, although for anything other than 1 large, I'm often not looking at the screen for most of the time. (I find it easier to do anything other than 1 large, with pencil and paper.) How it would work for Speed, I don't know. It might get a bit annoying if something flashed up after 5 seconds of a Speed round... or instantly in Bullet.

Of course, I'd still favour auto-declaration, but sounds like I'm not going to win that one. ;-) Many people - including me when I remember - routinely click the target as soon as it appears anyway, so personally I don't think it would lead to an increase in fudging.

There seems to be an oddity when I play bots in a Conundrum Attack, in as much as I never get high difficulty conundrums. In fact, often most of the conundrums generated are exactly the same difficulty, never higher than 6/10.

For instance, these games are typical:

Against Waldorf, conundrums are mostly difficulty 6, with none harder.
Against Nude, all 20 conundrums are difficulty 6.
Against Prune, conundrums range from difficulty 1 through 6, but with none harder.

Maybe these low difficulty conundrums appear as a result of the low rating of these 3 bots, but I thought that bot rating was supposed to be excluded in calculation of maximum permissible conundrum difficulty for Bot v Human games?


Any chance this could be changed? Otherwise, now that I've finished Ascension, I don't seem to have a way of playing a Conundrum Attack against a bot, with some difficult ones in?

This may be by design to prevent people spamming CAs to practise difficult conundrums, I think Charlie may have mentioned this previously.

Request for an addition to the already jam-packed Statland: I'd be curious to see a leaderboard of the top 30 players who've declared the most valid 9s in Normal variant, ODE play, listing how many 9s they've declared. I have a feeling Innis will be top, but behind him, I'm not sure.

Possible extensions to this, depending on whether you want to massage the egos of specialist variant and foreign language players: leaderboards for most "12s in Hyper", "12s in Hypergoat", "12s in Hypertouch", "7s in Junior", "9s in CSW", "9s in <foreign language>".

Reading the "declare reversed" section on that page reminded me of something. Why is it that on apterous the person who picks the letters normally declares first, when it's the other way round on Countdown?

Could be that the picker used to declare first. ISTR one of the Deses saying "Fred, you picked them, so how many?" If so, I'm going to conjecture that it changed to rebalance the game - declaring second is a potential advantage, so the person who only gets to pick one numbers game should be the one to declare second in six rounds to the other player's five.

Just posting some things that have been emailed to me so I can have them all in the same place. Not necessarily implying that I advocate these.

I've been pencil hunting lately with that very helpful list and I think I have quite a few silvers now. Also, for the home page, could there be the most recent English pencils in its own table, rather than being together with the other languages? It's just English pencils are now quite sought after (by me!) and there seems to be hundreds of other pencils from Welsh and French et al. getting rid of the English ones.

Perhaps Junior could now have silver pencils too?

In Foreign Languages, and probably elsewhere, it would be fun to flag:

THIS GAME BROKE THE RECORD FOR THE MOST MAXES/PENCILS IN THIS FORMAT.
This may also lead to more players focusing on that as a target, and fewer meaningless games when playing a bot and failing early on.

PBs especially important, though, as this can involve absolutely everyone.

There are so many formats that few of us can understand the importance of all games nominated, and looking back at the history it would also be interesting.

If this is already shown, sorry. But where is it????????

On leaderboards with the top 30 players or whatever, I think it would be interesting for it to say how many players there are that meet the criteria for inclusion. If it's under 30, it's obvious, but if there are 30 on the list, someone in 30th won't be sure if that's any good or not.

How about some or all of these options in the custom game menu?

1) Number of letters in a letters round
2) Number of numbers in a numbers round and number of numbers in the target number
3) Number of letters in a conundrum round

There'd probably need to be a cap for each of these. If it were applicable across all languages and variants (as everything else is in the custom game menu), then the letters would probably have to be capped by variant. I'm sure there are huge problems implementing some or all of these, but the letters round customisation could open up the entire lexicon without having to make official superhyper and megahyper variants or whatever (18 and 21 letters etc.).

If you could make just the Normal variant have a customisable number of letters in a letters round (obviously 7, 8, 9 and 12 are already available), that would be really cool.

Is any of this doable or worth doing?

You think 80's Carol's anti-Thatcher stance is more worthy of comment than Morbo's blanket anti-human policy?

Perhaps to balance it out, Thatcher should be added as a DC guest. "Has someone stolen your morning milk? You missed EXPIATORS for nine!"
