F**ked up beyond all repair/recognition- basically the knock-out table bore no relation to the actual finals as they took place (indeed, it had Allan Saldanha beating Harvey Freeman in the semi-final) and had seedings, where series 33 didn't. Best to rip it out and start again. Nebagram 22:11, 17 May 2010 (BST)
 
 
 
==Series 62==
 
Your comment about Nikki being told she's in the finals makes more sense today than yesterday. However, some other contestants were also told when they'd finished their run that they were on the leaderboard at a place one position higher than they should be.  One was Peter; another, I believe, was Claudia.  So for consistency, either include them all, or none of them. I understand that the reason for these errors was that the leaderboard being maintained by the production team had inadvertently omitted one name. In any case, it's only relevant until the final lineup is known.--[[User:Drawoh|Drawoh]] 22:50, 18 May 2010 (BST)

My reason for reverting your recent edit, twice, is that one of the contestants, Jon Corby, was from Series 54.--[[User:Drawoh|Drawoh]] 21:23, 1 June 2010 (BST)

*The conundrum you used in Round 14 of Episode F6 was a plural. Just sayin. [[User:JohnnyCanuck|JohnnyCanuck]] 14:50, 12 June 2010 (BST)
 
*I watch F1 occasionally, eh, but I'm more a fan of American game shows, eh. Sadly, we don't get Countdown over in the Great White North, eh? [[User:JohnnyCanuck|JohnnyCanuck]] 22:18, 12 June 2010 (BST)

If you're going to do recaps of certain episodes, there are two things you need to know.
 
 
 
1. I sort out ALL recaps (with the exception of Mondays), so you're not required to do them!
 
2. If you're going to make a botched-up version of it, at least have the decency to do it all correctly in future!

==Clive Freedman==
 
I've undone your attempt at changing the Clive Freedman's page name for a couple of reasons.
 
 
 
* The convention for contestants with duplicate names is to qualify them by the series in which they started their run, even though it may spill over to a second series.  There is no advantage in having 6 & 7 in the page title, as it's never seen, other than in the category lists.
 
 
 
* Putting such characters as & in a page title have very unfortunate consequences, one of which results in the page in question not being able to be accessed at times.
 
 
 
BTW, if you do a move again, as you did with Ben Cooke earlier in the week, there's a lot more to be done than just moving the page and creating a disambiguation page.  All the pages which refer to the page which as been moved have themselves to be edited.  In the case of the Ben Cooke page which you moved, there were 19 references elsewhere in the wiki which needed amending.--[[User:Drawoh|Drawoh]] 19:37, 7 July 2010 (BST)
 
:No worries.  Series 30 references to Ben Cooke have been fixed now.  :)  --[[User:Drawoh|Drawoh]] 19:25, 8 July 2010 (BST)
 
 
 
==Signing your messages==
 
I notice you have been manually signing your messages.  Well, you don't need to do that, it is a lot of work.  There is a button at the top of the window (where the bold, italic etc. buttons are) which does it automatically for you.  You will find this 2nd from the right in the row of buttons. --[[User:Vande|Vande]] 17:01, 9 July 2010 (BST)

==Episode 2636==
 
Doctor, in round 8, C1 explained that he had a method which used all the numbers. Basically what he did was:
 
* 8 - 7 = 1
 
* 2 - 1 = 1
 
 
 
and then he multiplied it by the (5 x 100) + 8, because that still made the right answer.
 
 
 
Hope that clears things up. :) [[User:JRTerrier24|JRTerrier24]] 16:33, 11 July 2010 (BST)
