I think I saw ggdr entering the rankings with a bullet as well. Any other FC participants willing to declare their hand? I confess I always have a go on this game, but am generally absolute rubbish (particularly on the wordsearch, spot the difference and su doku rounds). My best is 1468 for a crisp fiver at a virgin site.
i've had a couple of lower ranked top 50 scores but nothing very impressive yet. will be visiting a new city over the weekend so hopefully be dealt some favourable games.
the only game i'm rubbish on is the summing up because my arithmetic is poor. the maze can be a pig, STD can be very tricky and su doku can still cheat but aside from that i enjoy all the games. might treat myself to a lunch hour in the pub but realistically i'll be playing WU if it is back.
Very good work DMAC and VBOB - 1675 is a fantastic score DMAC.
Very interesting report from Norwich Bob - putting two and two together I wonder whether the goings-on that led to the temporary withdrawal of the game originated in Norwich? I remember that when Mr Brewis was doing Big Match, Norwich was one of only two or three places he went where someone had clearly done all the Big Matches, so there is evidently a very good local player round that way.

Yes, I suppose I meant "good player" in the sense of "enterprising" rather than "nails at Puzzler"! Although there are a few (presumably genuine) scores from up that way on the countrywide fifty aren't there?

Doesn't everyone in Norwich have two heads due to the shallowness of the local gene pool? Must be an advantage when it comes to the quiz machines...
