Post by Jordan F »

Rob Jennings is our newest Countdown champion. Can he get a second win and be the first person to win more than one game within Series 71?

Join James for the recap later.

(7+9)x(25+(6x2)) is an easier way to 592.

I thought it was a very low combined score of 78.

It nearly broke it, just lost out by a point to this one..............: http://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_5734

Series 71 is proving to be a nightmare start all round.................. :roll: :roll: Too many unnecessary risks with words that people think are just going to be in the "up-to-date" dictionary........... :roll: :roll:

ORDAIN in round 1, MISLEAD in round 2, PRIMATE/RAGTIME/VIRGATE in round 4, REBUILT/TILBURY (which I literally just looked up 5 minutes before it was on screen) in round 10 (my mum got CRUELTY in that one too :) ) and SUASION in round 12.

1st Numbers Alt.: ((25 - 2) x (9 + 8 + 7)) + 9 = 561
2nd Numbers Alt.: ((((25 - 7) x 5) + 9) x 6) - 2 = 592
3rd Numbers Alt.: ((100 + 75) x 4) + 9 - 8 = 701

Another alt for 592, practicing those split multiplications again: ((25 x 6) - 2) x (9 - 5)

Winner failed to max a single round - is that a first?

I think so, Steve Wood got just the one max in this Series 61 game: http://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_4904

But, I think you might have a first. :D

A first for me. I managed to nil out an opponent.

The champion scored zero and the challenger 14 against my 115. :)
