From Countdown

Countdown in Birmingham 2024 was a co-event hosted by MSR on 3 August 2024 as the twelfth round of the 2024 FOCAL season. It was won by Jack Hurst, who beat Ben Wilson 72 – 28 in the grand final.

The event was held at Paramo Lounge in Solihull, where 33 attendees played eight 9-round games in the "Lincoln" format.

This was the last co-event to involve players adjudicating against the Apterous dictionary in its state prior to the major overhaul given to Oxford Dictionaries Premium on 16 July 2024, which saw the removal of approximately 95,000 words. These extensive changes came into effect on Apterous during the third round of the event. For the sake of consistency, adjudication using Hurst's Countdown Numbers & Anagrams app — which retained the old dictionary at the time — was made mandatory, though most attendees had been using this regardless.
