Spoilers For Monday January 17th 2011
So, we have enter week 2, and already we have the possibility of crowning our first octochamp of the series by the end of the week.
That person in question is our very own Adam Gillard, on 3 wins so far, so will need to win all 5 shows this week to become the first octochamp of Series 64.
He likes his 3's does our Adam - 3 wins, 3 centuries, 3 solved conundrums, 333 points. Well, actually it's 337 points, so that's 333 + 3 to the power of 1 + 1 to the power of 3.
In DC this week, and having the honour of being the first DC debutant of 2011, is the broadcaster, Jonathan Maitland.
Join Ryan for the recap later.

Anyone noticed that AG's games have often had selections with high numbers of T's in?

When Jeff said he wanted to get his revenge on Rachel in his dreams, my mind wandered.

Good stuff, just 3 points off the max I made it so a 12 max game. I think if Andy had played you 100 times he wouldn't have ever beat you. That's how comfortable it was.

Re: Spoilers For Monday January 17th 2011
Thanks. It was a bit distracting with the little skit beforehand; normally I don't even notice if the scramble contains a phrase or anything like that but was sort of looking out for it in the end. Anyway, another ODE3 one.Ben Hunter wrote:Nice conundrum solve there Adam.
Thanks. I spotted SAPIENCE watching it back, but still missed DRUGGIES and MALONATE. As you noted yourself, Andy did manage to stick with me for quite a while towards the end and certainly wasn't a push-over, finishing with a very respectable score (much like Ray did on Friday).Ryan Taylor wrote:Good stuff, just 3 points off the max I made it so a 12 max game.

In fairness to Andy, he was clearly very nervous at first, but played much better later in the game.

I managed to beat Adam, but only because I'd read that conundrum on Countdown's Twitter feed last month. Spoilers!
Well done on another win, Adam. Hopefully there'll be another four like that.
