      Congratulations Lindea.

      The answer is Ian McCulloch, who scored 4955 points in 2005 compared with 4953 against him.

      So here is the scoreboard after round 5:

      Pos. . . . . . . . Points . . . . . . Name
      1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . snookersfun
      2 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . Mitsuko
      3 . . . . . . . . . . 1 . . . . . . . . Lindea

      ROUND SIX

      What is the greatest number of players' names (surname only) you can write down if you are only allowed to use each letter of the alphabet once?

      Name the players. If nobody can beat your total, you get the point.

      For a player to qualify he must have either (a) played at the Crucible or (b) reached at least one ranking quarter-final.

        I think the only way I'll get a point for this is if no one else turns up:

        5: Dodd, Fu, Wych, Lee, King

        Edit: Just realised you probably meant that letters can't be used twice in a name either. Whoops. I'll have another go in a minute

                      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

                        My access runs out in one minute, so at 5 o'clock I will award the point to Lindea for her 4, or someone else if they beat 4.

                                . Remember to make sure you're reading the last page before you post your answer. Unless you can name 58 players using 26 letters?
