Spoilers For Thursday February 24th 2011
So, after that tense nailbiter yesterday, expected full-blooded war today, as 2 Apteforumites go head-to-head for the title of champion of "Episode 5212"-ish.
Ned Pendleton is still the champ, and is now 5 wins to the good. His challenge today comes in the form of Dan McColm.
Is he going to prove to be the Real McColm, or just be a Desperate Dan
Join me and the Robinson Recap later to find out.

You so weren't - several maxes and some lovely spots too especially NEPETA - disappointed not to see you again Dan but you played very well I thought.Dan McColm wrote:Desperate Dan, I'm afraid. Christ, I was shite.

Ned, you're my new favourite from this series after that awesome head bobbing. Ed, you're boring now. Plus that bloke in the audience what got the conundrum has been to, like, a million recordings or something. He's basically part of Dudley's warm-up act now.

You put up a great show.
Also, you have a nice calm voice, and you smiled.

You were a good contest Dan, and without sounding like Ralph, you have a good radio voice too!

And NIGGLES in R3 as a DC equaller.
A good game - both solid players - not much between them, but Ned's consistency won it in the end, especially on the numbers.

Re: Spoilers For Thursday February 24th 2011
Things I liked:
- My casual sips of water
- My 815 solution
- NEPETA, which I didn't realise was the max
Things I disliked:
- How slowly I picked
- Not seeing REDEALT^ = RELATED
- Blowing the last numbers game, which was simpler than I thought.

Re: Spoilers For Thursday February 24th 2011
Dan, though I thought you did yourself proud, I was more impressed with the fact that you're trying to do "the 92"
I just wondered, if a team moves to a new stadium (ie Chesterfield and Morecambe are two that spring to mind who have a new home this season), are you disciplining yourself enough to ensure that the new grounds must be ticked off?
In fact, you've inspired me to do a quick count up, I'm up to 39 football league and 126 others.

Re: Spoilers For Thursday February 24th 2011
Yep, if a team moves to a new ground, I'll have to go to that team's new ground to tick it off. I'd been to Highfield Road a few times, but when Coventry City moved to the Ricoh, I went there to tick it off (we drew 1-1 )Martyn Simpson wrote:Dan, though I thought you did yourself proud, I was more impressed with the fact that you're trying to do "the 92"
