Countdown in Lincoln, or COLIN as it is more commonly known, is the name of an annual Countdown tournament held in or near the city of Lincoln, usually on the last Saturday of January. It is usually attended by around 25 people, a mix of former contestants and Countdown enthusiasts. To determine who plays who, COLIN follows the Edinburgh Countdown Club's model of having three players to a table, with two playing and the other 'hosting'.

COLIN has been organised every year by former series champion Ben Wilson.
