I find it so interesting that this series there seems to be a lot more potential apterite on apterite matchups. Zarte vs Dylan happened, Gemma vs Jen could, and now Mark vs Sean could. The spacing seems so different this series compared to ones past.
Re: Post your audition/filming/transmission dates here

I think due to the sheer volume of Apterites it was inevitable there'd be all Apterous matches. It would be impossible to keep all Apterites 8 games apart! When you think about it if you're going on the show you want nobody special starting within 7 shows before OR after you, so you're looking for a 15 day Dylan/Zarte/Jen free-zone. Future series should be a bit less intense though.Jordan F wrote:I find it so interesting that this series there seems to be a lot more potential apterite on apterite matchups.

Sean, Mark, Fiona, Adam, Alex and Callum could all run into each other in some way I think. I've tried to keep away from proper spoilers to make it more interesting to watch because it's going to be a good few weeks.

Adbirizak is certainly one to watch. He plays with great enthusiasm and skill.
My episode(s) will be broadcast on Friday 27th September (and each weekday thereafter, should I pick up any wins).

I'll only mention this instead of him since I don't believe he's on this site, but Horace Horlicks mentioned to me that he airs on the 29th.

Re: Post your audition/filming/transmission dates here

The 29th of this month?
Dave: He's an apterite who despite having been a member for less than two years, is near the top of the most time played table.

1187 rating, 127th pro ranks, but 3rd in Most Time Played. The man is an apterous legend. Can't wait to see him on Countdown.Dave Preece wrote:So what the guys rank??? I cant seem to get on apterous ATM???

You just have to get used to it. A lot of people have said that they struggled at first, but I find it's fine after a while. But there is a ticket about making it easier for beginners anyway (I seem to recall).Dave Preece wrote:I don't like the numbers game on apterous, I don't find it very user-friendlyGavin Chipper wrote:All the more reason to go on Apterous!Dave Preece wrote:I'm a massive fan of the show but not the best player of the game

Having successfully negotiated the phone audition a month or so ago, I received the call with a filming date yesterday.
I'm on the last show being filmed on 13th January. I now live in hope that no other Apterites are on that day- in which case I might have a chance!
