8a.nu thing!
February 16, 2005, 03:02:00 pm
First up - people take this very seriously don't they!  I thought it was for geeks and grommits and suchlike, and thus spent a quick 25 minutes or so compiling my list (which, by the way, is a list of all my stuff, obviously not all done this year).  I am now the seventh best in the whole wide world - winner.  After being bought up on this by Mr Pantonoitiniton, I have since tried to clear the list up, but have unfortunatley forgotten my pass word.  If any one was offended by this act of blatant bollocks, then I am well and truly sorry.  Honest. :8)

What are you talking about it doesn't matter? CJD is debasing the whole thing man, how can I get up on a morning knowing that the 8a.nu score card has been corrupted. I don't know, next somebody is going to downgrade their scores relative to everybody else to prove their waddage, or something.

think the reason old CJD came up winner on 8a.nu was just cos all the dates for all hard problems he'd ever done were on the scorecard as in the last year, presumably a innocnet mistake. But the scoring is basedon the last 12 months, so hey presto, a score only a vivid imagination would beat! CJD ultra-world waddage, lock up your projects sharma!!!!!!!. :up:

I think thats why lots of people have two or even three scorecards, cus they forget their password and 8a.nu dont have a reminder system or anything, so its back to square one.
One quesrion chris, i know the dates are wrong etc but are the grades correct? ie. do you feel that poppys move, full circle, neon handshake etc warrant font 8b now? as they where all reported as 8a+
Just interested as plan on trying them this summer.

Thanks, im not sure why everyones talking about whos climbed font 8a etc, we all know that the only solidly graded 8a problems are in the school room and anything outside the school room is just plain piss, so if you havent done an 8a in the school then you havent done 8a period.

Its pinky Perky i think

Ye Pinky Perky is in the school and the hardest problem in britain if not the world, it would be proper font 8c+ on the rocks but in the school it only gets a measley font 8b, still a tick in the school is worth double outside

talking of true waddage, think there was a thread elsewhere about this before, but zippy said once malc did every 8a and up on the 50 degree board in a session at the school once. what a beast. whats happened to him? presumably training?
