Irritable vowel syndrome

Post by Anthony Jenkin »

Anybody else notice that in Moose's last letters round on Friday 19th May, he asked for a consonant and Rachel pulled out an A?

Yep, rewatching the episode it seems like a definite administrative error. In the AWOKEN round on Wednesday, Jonathan asked for a consonant and got an E (admittedly from the vowel box) too.

P.S.: Welcome to C4Countdown! Are you Anthony Jenkin from Series 31?
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

Great topic to start with I guess.
Serves him right for his consonant-loving ways. And it produced a beautiful HETAIRA.

Awesome -- I always like finding the pre-2000s players on here :)
