I'll be brief as I'm recovering today from a bruised tailbone. The new champ is Megan Jephson, can she get win number 2 today? Paul Zenon will return, maybe he'll magically heal my tailbone.

We have a debut recap today from David Barnard, join him later.

Is pingable a valid word? - if not it should be!!

Pleased to see that DC got the 9 in round 1, was really curious to see if they did or didn't, there's been more straightforward ones missed in the last 6 months or so, I think.

I'm surprised that when Susie wondered about the pronunciation of DOSIMETER, she didn't refer to that given in the dictionary, which makes it clear that the first syllable is simply DOSE (rather obviously, from the definition).

ODE3 has PING as a verb in the computer sense but not pingable.

Equallers I got were BLIMPS in R4, HARPING in R6, WORMED in R11 and HINGES in R13.

Glad someone else did my T selection though it didn't stand for Tony this time. Jonathan must have been
annoyed at missing 226 as it is also ((10-7)x75)+1.

LIMBOS in round 4, FUMIER in round 11 and GENIUS in round 13.

3rd Numbers Alt.: (100 + 3) x (4 + (50 / 25)) = 618

Another tight game today, can't wait for Kerry tomorrow. Should be brill.
