Following that decent Championship of Champions, Countdown came back "Down" to Earth yesterday with carry-over champion Tim securing a second victory. Will luck and skill hold up for him today, or will we have our first new winner of 2016?
Someone unexpected is going to need to bite and do the recap, since the Tuesday slot appears to be vacant following Jen's retirement. Join J. Random Recapper later. Potentially a few weeks later.

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.

Love conundrum guesses that don't contain the right letters, moreso when they actually contain more than nine letters. I was truly spoiled today.

I realised straight after buzzing that my guess was wrong. I should've kept my mouth shut about what I was going to guess.Jon Corby wrote:Love conundrum guesses that don't contain the right letters, moreso when they actually contain more than nine letters. I was truly spoiled today.

Alternatively, I lose on crucial conundrums all the time because I spend so long double-checking myself.
