"If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."

An excellent suggestion, April Madness!Originally Posted by April madnessyou don't have to make the longest palindrome, rather one that D_G will like. I suggest something about Davis

I am hereby going to suggest my palindrome. It had to do with the most important in the world to me and I've worked very hard on it. In fact, I stayed up two nights in a row working on this palindrome, so I hope you like it. Here goes. My palindrome is:
I"I'll be back next year." --Jimmy WhiteComment

This Girl here, from Battle Royale is called Mai. She went to play snooker, she went to the table and the referee said who are you? She responded
"I am Mai"
You play a long slow deadweight red to a corner pocket. As it approaches the pocket, a kamikaze woodlouse crawls out from under the cushion and makes its way across the table, conflicting with the path of the red precisely at the point the red gets there. The red, needless to say, veers off course, and the future of the woodlouse is uncertain. - The Statman

Well done to all who entered, especially to elvaago who put in such a huge effort, also to Mitsuko and chasmmi, but most of all to Sarmu for his winning entry above. Award Sarmu the point!"If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."

Round 26:
How many four letter words can you make using the beginning and ends of Snooker players' names?
By this i mean if you chose John Higgins you would have to make a four letter word using JNHS no other letters allowed.
The words have to be real English words that would be accepted on Countdown. The highest number submitted by Friday 8th Dec at midnight Korean time wins.
Players used must either be current top 96 players or players who are at least reasonably well known in the snooker world.
Lets the round begin!Comment

And I have a feeling JEWS would be disallowed on Countdown for requiring a capital letter.Comment

Shh no-one would have spotted that... I'd already ruled out Mans and Mens as they both needed apostrophesComment

Mens needs an apostrophy, but mans is perfectly legitimate.Originally Posted by rambon
