Was chuffed to achieve a personal best of 143 while playing along. However, am even more chuffed by the high standard; this must be one of the greatest games between two non-(known-to-be-)Apterites.

Blatantly Obvious 4th Numbers Alt.: 100 + 9 - 50 / 25.
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.

Unless he is Sean D and not Sean C for some reason, then possibly not. Maybe somebody who was there knows?
Good that he has found his feet and gotting a cracking score, which was bad news for Heather though.

I did (9x8)+25+10 (not the std method), but don't know what the players did as the streaming crashed.

I was actually half-expecting Sean to do it that way given the outlandish methods he's used so far, but he did 8-(10-9)+100 and Heather did 25-10-8+100.

Neither are apterites. I mentioned apterous to Heather in the Dockyard after the recording but she hasn't (as far as I'm aware) followed up on it.

Sean D was on a few years ago
Definitely not Jamie McNeill or Schrodinger's Cat....

After personally experiencing degrading online sexual objectification after my appearance, I proudly refuse to mention anything about how cute Heather is, or how painfully in love with her I am, or her stray hair that I rescued from the green room, or the number of screencaps I printed out today for my shrine to her.

SLIOTAR and ALTOIST alt 7s on the ORALIST round. (A desperate attempt to legitimise this post)

I didn't say ANYTHING publicly, FFS...
Possibly the first contestant to accelerate with a mic clipped...
