The Numbers Game
« on: February 26, 2017, 02:04:28 PM »
Anyone who has been enjoying this thread will have noticed it's missing. You can thank me for that - I posted something incorrectly and managed to delete the whole thread instead of my post. Attempts are being made to reinstate the entire thread, but we may have to wait until Otto Puzzell is available. If my action is irreversible, I do recall that the last number was 255. Once again, many apologies. I HAD NOT BEEN DRINKING ALCOHOL!

Oh, OK... Just a game anyway. I hope it can be recovered, otherwise I don't mind either continuing from 255 or just starting over again from 1 (since I missed the first 182 numbers hehe!  :P)

Thanks Pal.
That's because the thread had been dormant from 2011 until a few days ago so the newer entries wouldn't have been backed up.
We're carrying on from where we reached, No. 255.

Thanks for being patient with me. I can think of several website forums where this would have resulted in near-lynching. AP isn't like that.
