 | Charlie Reams Sticking with tetrachamps? |
 | Matt Morrison Yeah I think it's worked pretty well. But you're a God and I am guessing you think it could be tweaked?
|
| Charlie Reams I was just asking since it wasn't specified over there <--. I haven't seen any big problems with 4. |
| Matt Morrison Great, so now I have to file another ticket requesting an edit button on tournament descriptions? |
| Charlie Reams Please do! There are many ways in which the tournament system could be better than it is. |
 | Zarte Siempre I love how this hasn't even started and we're 3 weeks late :D |
| Matt Morrison We're not late at all you cock. The 10th is just the date I put it in the system. |
| Matt Morrison Thanks for adding JR's wins and points Charlie! |
| Zarte Siempre Whatever helps you sleep at night, sweetcheeks x |
 | Martin Long When will this be starting? |
| Matt Morrison Will have to do another push for entrants I guess Martin. Think there ought to be 50. |
 | Gevin Chapwell Where did this come from? I don't remember there ever being any discussion about this anywhere ever. |
| Matt Morrison If Gevin hasn't ticketed it, it hasn't happened. Do the honours please! |
| Gevin Chapwell Normally you discuss your stuff on the forum and I don't remember seeing this. There's loads of tournaments all the time, so it's hard to notice the ones I want to do when I'm not actually looking. |
| Matt Morrison http://www.c4countdown.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=10297 |
| Gevin Chapwell Yep. It does ring a bell now you mention it. |
| Matt Morrison Good little surge. Tell your friends. Will start as soon as we hit 50 (signups will stay open for a few weeks longer). |
| Matt Morrison 5 to go |
| |
| Matt Morrison 1 more - but will start this ASAP after the AWC is completed. |
| Matt Morrison Thanks Mr. Croy. 50 up. As mentioned above will start middle of July. |
 | Rhys Benjamin Middle of July; is this thing happening? |
| Matt Morrison "will start this ASAP after the AWC is completed." |
| Matt Morrison Here we go. |
| Matt Morrison Absolute beast first out the bag. |
 | Jack Worsley And second. |
| Matt Morrison True! |
| Matt Morrison James's points total would be enough to get him into the finals in every one of the previous 3 seasons, so I expect him to be there this time. But my gosh what a waiting game he has to play. |
| Zarte Siempre next please. |
| Matt Morrison will remember to email the running order home from work tomorrow, sorry! will get it up at about 9am. phwoar. |
| Matt Morrison Well done Adam by the way/ |
| Rhys Benjamin A max followed by a double max. No way I'm keeping up. |
 | Tracey Mills Nice Win there Gilly |
 | Adam Gillard Thanks, folks. |
| Martin Long Some awesome games so far in this tournament, and looks like another one coming up next... |
| Jack Worsley Next please. |
| Matt Morrison Thanks Jack (and separately, Zarte) - apterous emails don't work for me, I'd love it if anyone who has played a fixture could comment here or even better just add a message to the aptomail thread. I know it's annoying. :( |
| Rhys Benjamin Can't it be changed to in-apterous notifications? |
| Adam Gillard Yeah, as the tournament organiser you can get a notification every time someone plays a game. Assumed you were! |
| Matt Morrison I am. Except I'm not. |
| Jack Worsley Next |
| Matt Morrison Isn't really until I type the fixtures in that I appreciate the start to this season is full of big guns. |
| Jack Worsley Moving on |
| Martin Long Next. |
| Rhys Benjamin How is Adam highlighted in the table yet Robbo isn't? |
| Jack Worsley Next |
| Matt Morrison I get game played notifications. |
| Matt Morrison The flow is fucking great this time. Keep it up everyone!! |
| Matt Morrison THIS WEEK LAST WEEK FOR ENTRIES. |
| Matt Morrison signups closing tomorrow AM |
| Matt Morrison So proud of everyone, we're going through these nicely. |
 | George Ford <3 not as proud as we are of you matt <3 good job <3 great work <3 motivation <3 hearts <3 |
| Matt Morrison Ha, fuck. I got excited about actually getting a notification I forgot to set a new fixture. Here she comes... |
| Charlie Reams Shame James Robinson has already played and James Reeve has left, I was hoping for a perfect set of James R opponents. |
| Matt Morrison Well I hope James beats you now and ends up playing three more CRs :) |
| Charlie Reams I have to lose my fourth game and scrape into the finals as 8th seed. It's traditional. |
| Matt Morrison Sorry Charlie. Sorry Zarte. |
| Charlie Reams Bit of a cracker coming up next. |
| Rhys Benjamin Are we going to have a COC after this one? Back in the heyday of Countdown in the 90s and early 00s, there was one after every four series.
|
| Rhys Benjamin In any case, that's 17 names, so someone will have to be cut. Also forgot to mention I excluded a couple of people due to inactivity. |
| Matt Morrison Interesting idea, and definitely possible. If you care enough then make a ticket, I guess that's the only way to get opinions and stuff. |
| Matt Morrison Just 6 or 7 fixtures to go now... |
| Zarte Siempre Seems to have been the same one for a while... |
| Matt Morrison Not exactly. Nguyen kept us waiting and ended up dropping out and now Johnny is having those connection problems. Technically deadline for the current one is 12th but we'll see. |
 | Johnny Canuck We played our match. 'Twas a close one. |
| Matt Morrison That's it. |

| Charlie Reams Nice! Played the whole series in barely 4 months. Great work by Matt, and thanks to everyone who played their games. |
| Tracey Mills Well done to Matt Morrison for organising. |
 | Matt OC Just missing out on the final 8; story of my life |
| Tracey Mills Well done to you Matt Croy, But I got a really nasty draw ! |
| Zarte Siempre Smallest ever number of enfourcers in this series. |

Tourney round: aptoSOS: 04
Notes from the organizer: Welcome all. Series 4 of aptoSOS, the simulation of a series of real-life Countdown that year-on-year tries to be less disappointing than the last. Sign up now.
The series 3 limit of one week per game worked well enough but we've decided to speed things up a little to a 5 DAY turnaround this time. Very few games were played between the 5 and 7 day timeframe last time so 5 days should be fine and encourage a little more speed. As before a 2-3 DAY extension is available for any player with a decent reason one time.
All players eligible to enter this one. No one excluded. Random draw again. Hopefully one that doesn't put Zarte anywhere near Innis! And of course we have upgraded to "new" 15 rather than old.
The series 3 finals are on the go now and then depending on how quickly people sign up, the new series will ideally start a couple of weeks after the final, or so.
James Robinson is the current hangover champion, and starts on 3 wins with 314 points.
Ran from: 10 March – 19 December 2014. Format: 15 Rounder. Matches: One-off. Approved.
