DISTRAIN to beat ORDAINS/RATIONS.
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.

Did anyone else see how round 8 has all the same letters as round 8 in Eoin Jackson's first game?

Was anyone else hoping John would pick an e as his final vowel in r13?

I'm not sure that's how it works.

Happens quite often with me but when I check the next v/c that comes out it's not usually the one I wanted, lol.
I think John's 'inflated' today probably led me to 'inflates' later, but he didn't see that himself.

Might be a bit late...but the way Nick savagely finished off the solution in Round 6 :lol: You don't often see him do that...

Simpler Alternative for Round 14: 25 x 6 + 4 x 2

Don't think I've ever seen Nick get so involved with a numbers round! I remember Jeff used to solve them sometimes but I don't think he commented on their difficulty or simplicity :-)
