 | Matt Morrison Cool. Up to 42. I'll pester Charlie to do the leaderboard and then crack on with fixtures. |
| Matt Morrison Fuck it, let's just get on with it. Here we go... |
 | Bradley Horrocks No mercy with the draw! |
 | Thomas Carey bradley horrocks |
| Bradley Horrocks Are you feeling alright Tom, you spelt my name right |
| Matt Morrison I don't know what a J E is. |
 | Philip Aston Watch out, here comes the 16-year-old whizz kid! |
 | Elliott Mellor Bra's had such a bad draw you may as well go the full slog and make it berserk 15s for him. |
| Philip Aston This is gonna be fun. |
 | Ian Birdman Is it wrong that I really want Mellbot to be drawn next?! |
| Elliott Mellor Bring it |
| Bradley Horrocks That one hurt. Release the Mellbot! |
| Ian Birdman Great run Bra. To be fair a Matt Croy vs J E game doesn't sound too shabby to me either! |
| Bradley Horrocks No, definitely not, should be a cracker! |
 | Tracey Mills Good draw, J E v Matt Croy who would I put my money on ? |
| Ian Birdman I think everyome knows who you'd like to put your money on tracey! Not sure who u think will win the game though. |
| Matt Morrison This is the most chat ever. I love it. I still don't know what a J E is but i'm glad you guys like them. |
 | Zarte Siempre This is a really top-heavy start to the draw. Might make for some fascinating people getting some easier runs. Or it might just end up with basically no en4cers. |
 | Spike Nard This really is the case now! |
| Philip Aston Gosh, this could be the toughest SOS yet... |
| Matt Morrison WILL CLOSE SIGNUPS THIS WEEK. |
 | Gevin Chapwell I can still sign up? |
| |
| Gevin Chapwell Not on. Not on at all. |
| Gevin Chapwell If I withdraw my sign-up, will it break the tournament? |
| Matt Morrison I don't think so. Not sure! |
 | Sean Fletcher Is still this going? |
| Matt Morrison Yeah, sorry. I'm trying to hurry it along! |
| Zarte Siempre Someone kick Giles. Either in the shins, or out. |
| Matt Morrison Oh yeah, he hasn't been seen for 2 weeks. Didn't realise. I'll give him until tomorrow. |
 | Giles H Yo it’s me |
| Philip Aston Um... been two days since last game and still no draw. |
| Matt Morrison Thanks for the polite reminder. Didn't get a game played notification email for some reason :( |
| Philip Aston Fair. I wonder why. |
 | Martin Hurst Site was doing crazy shit that night iirc |
| Matt Morrison hey guys. not here for a week. x |
| Martin Hurst Cheers for the leaving present ;) |
| Philip Aston This next fixture should be a cracker. |
| Philip Aston 111 or more for 125+ average. No pressure. |
| Elliott Mellor Just missed:/ |
| Philip Aston Oops. Maybe I shouldn’t jinx it next time. Well done though. |
| Zarte Siempre I know she's your other half Matt, but surely that means you can stick your rocket up her arse... |
| Gevin Chapwell Matt and Adam Dexter? I had not heard about that! |
| Matt Morrison Yeah we've been away quite a bit. But to be fair, there have been 3 messages in the organisation thread (all from me, I'm Heather's PA when it comes to apterous) and Dexter still hasn't replied, so I've given him a poke via Facebook. On it.,.. |
| Zarte Siempre Matt... |
| Show all comments | |
| Thomas Carey he's on holiday you bean |

Notes from the organizer: Back on it with immediate effect. Let's make this powerful and smooth.
Series 7 of aptoSOS, the kind-of simulation of a series of real-life Countdown.
Time limit: a 5 DAY turnaround. A one-time 2-3 DAY extension is available for any player with a decent reason.
All players eligible to enter this one. No one excluded. Random and secretive draw as usual.
Tetrachamps or quadrachamps or whatever you want to call them, I don't care. 4 winsers.
I'll wait until we have a minimum of 32 players before kicking off (hopefully more, will see how it goes), and leave signups open for a bit after the start.
Tim Down is the reigning champion from the end of season 6, on 2 wins and 209 points.
Ran from: 8 March – 13 December 2018. Format: 15 Rounder. Matches: One-off. Level scores: Tie-breakers played. Approved.
