Let me know what you think the damn fat panda's called - pick from the list in the last GIT - and if you're right I'll stick you in the draw for the prize. We have had three different answers so far, some appearing more than once, so the final results should be entertaining. BEFFY NOSE - turn 8 results Last time the random number was 7. Numbers containing three digits, all different, score.

Gordon's NMR means Jim is catching up quickly, trying to retake fourth place. Jim and John both put in the same number for both game, which lets Jim catch up in game L trying to snatch third! I think Andrew can still, just to say, be caught in game L, but it would take a miracle and some highly bizarre play... These are the ten rules for turn 9. Pick a number based on these ten rules, one of which will be selected at random; that rule will apply to the numbers that you all pick and decide if you earn points or not. 1: Must be divisible by 3 and/or 5. 2: Three digits, no zeroes or nines. 3: Product of all non-zero digits <100. 4: Last digit 0,1 or five letters long. 5: First digit must be odd. 6: Exactly 1 or 3 odd digit(s). 7: Under 450 and/or divisible by 13. 8: Must be divisible by 4 and/or 6 and/or 7. 9: Must be chosen by only one player. 10: Must be at least 777.

Phil Hannay and Gordon Aickin (yes, Gordon, I did talk you into it). The fact that the two of them live two doors away from each other is neither here nor there, except that I shall appoint their common neighbour, Gawain Bosworth, to act as the referee if things get ugly. The advantage of playing this postally is that the two of you will have more time to think about your moves (well, keep telling yourselves that, anyway). Game CANTOR: Phil Hannay to start. Please send in your starting number for turn one next time. Game DESCARTES: Gordon Aickin to start. Please send in your starting number for turn one next time. Georg Cantor was keen on doing disgusting things with the concept of infinity and having infinite numbers of numbers. One infinity was not enough for him; he had to have an infinite number of the buggers. Plainly mad. The sanity of Rene Descartes is not perhaps quite so easily brought into question, but the sage informs us that "Rene Descartes was as pissed as a fart #I #I&џџџџџџџџK@ёџNormala "A@ђџЁ"Default Paragraph Fontаџ@ўџ џџџџ РFMicrosoft Word 6.0 Document MSWordDocє9Вq
