Finally I manage to get through an entire Numbers Attack without fucking one up! And it only took ten months.

The first perfect Touchundrum attack

My best ever game. 11 maxes, i am immensely proud. Shame i didnt get my second ever 100 with a relatively simple conundrum miss.

Let myself down a few games later , but had more than half an eye on the cricket.

I have not yet had a max game in a 15 rounder, this is the closest I have come!

Very, very good. Better than some of the max games, if I'm honest.

Project 'Goatdown Standard' gets me a top 20 placing on the scoreboard. Would've been higher if I didn't bottle GASOLENE & DIOPTASE (both sowpods regulars). Next up- 140+ and 13/15.

Marcus Hares has a habit of bringing high scores out of me. I've only ever played him 4 times, and now 2 of those have been record highs in bullet rounds. This one increases the Bullet 9 record by 1, and is also the first Bullet 9 perfect game. Clearly the rounds were all fairly nice, easy selections but Marcus Hares can do that somehow. The other record game I had with him was a 126 in Bullet 15.

I was quite close to a new Speedgoat record here, but it wasn't to be.

You freak. Very impressive. Did Conor once get back to back perfect games, in the pre-Apterous era?

In pursuit of Chris Davies' Touchdown Letters Attack record, things weren't looking good after the first half. Even 6 nines in the second half only netted me the 2nd highest score ever. Still, I'm reasonably happy with that.

Very impressive. I was on track for 6 rounds and then got sorted out by a low max; this record is going to be remarkably hard to beat.

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2009 8:27 pm**

I am quite happy with this. Brilliant nine from Jim, which I would never have got but I got back in it with a nine I remembered from a spoilers thread. Thank-you Paul Howe!

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2009 10:02 pm**

Not bragging about a game in particular, but just quite chuffed to see my name so high up in the top 6-small games even though it is just for the last 30 days.

I've only had about two or three standard numbers attacks better than this, I suppose the fact that they were all one larges blemishes it a bit.

though it should be noted that this was a pretty flat and therefore easy game, even for touchdown!

Finally, after trying to max a 9 rounder, I end up with a max 15 rounder. It wasn't the hardest max game to get compared to the likes of Chris Davies', Innis' and Junaid's, but I am so happy.

Yeah, I think I will apply as soon as you can for the new series. But I can't be a one-hit wonder, I need to be consistent.

Consistently perfect?

No, consistent as in scoring 100 in one game and then getting hammered in the next consistent

Well done Eoin, any max game is an top achievement, some very nice spots in that game too. You must have been so nervous on the conundrum

I was so nervous Jack! I remembered SENSORIA because I saw ONANISERS^ and I think it has come up before from those letters, I am not sure. I was expecting Innis to do a Kirk and buzz in on 0.9 secinds with MUJAHEDIN or something!

Innis told me he got ACREAGE late and I think with a little more time he would have got HAIRPIN so then the conundrum wouldv'e been crucial and I hate crucial conundrums!

It may not be quite top calibre, but I'm quite proud of it

Considering that in recent weeks my rating has been up and down more times than a $2 hooker, i was quite proud when I did this.

13 maxes (albeit with a simple miss in round 9)

$2 hookers don't go up and down that much, they just lie there and make you do all the work.

Beat Rex to a conundrum in this game but not only that, there were no DC other words at all throughout the game. That can't happen very often

Possibly, I think I was actually on about getting 12 darrens though. And since you managed 2/6 in this game I'm guessing its not that easy
