Joined the 9 club today TINCTURES

Made up for getting finger-tied on LINGUINI (Ended up with LING)

Good idea re high score table. For the letters game, I've only seen three 9s: the ones that I've mentioned before in the thread (all by me). There have been some nice 8s, including a Fotherz effort: BABYHOOD. Is it worth having a seperate thread for the words then? Just post 8 & 9 letter words?...

OK so I'm ready to do my swotting for Countdown (SWP not TV). 1. Any ideas as to which dictionary I need to study? Is it a custom one or something like SOWPODS? 2.

Cheers.

Just to be totally clear. I'd press?

Haven't SWP'd for a while now but some of my mates really like this m/c so I've spent a couple of lunch times stood in front of it. How do you enter a construction like this on the numbers game: (50 x 2) + (6 x 7)? I only get: ((50 x 2) + 6) x 7 I guess it's something to do with the 3 little boxes b...

Is any version of STD "better" to play than any other? I heard deluxe was the way to go a while back - probably not the case any more..
