- For a crucial conundrum, see conundrum.
Crucial - A Champion’s Tale, often simply called Crucial, is a book published by Mark Tournoff in 2007 by his own publishing firm, Forestdale Publications. The book details Tournoff's experiences on Countdown, including winning the grand final of Series 52 on a crucial conundrum against Paul Gallen, and then losing the grand final of Championship of Champions XII versus Gallen once more, again on a crucial conundrum. The title of the book is a reference to the number of crucial conundrums he played on the show; a crucial conundrum being when the margin between the players is 10 points or fewer before the final round, and therefore that either player can still win.
