Forum:So, who's the Uncyclopedian on "Countdown", then?
Just what I said there in the topic. Apparently you've just been spotted, whoever you are... so come on, own up. We know you have glasses and are good at maths apparently. Also, thanks for plugging the site, and congratulations on your 7-game unbeaten run. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 16:33, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

- I've just put in on - that is so cool--Sycamore (Talk) 16:39, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- Awesome! Well, congrats to 15Mickey20 on his fame and fortune! -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 16:48, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- WOW, Uncyclo was mentioned on Countdown? Someone link me! -- Hindleyite Converse 16:49, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- It was just on TV now. It might be on the 4OD player, I have no idea. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 16:52, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- I have the C4+1 repeat on right now. Is Mickey the one who isn't the beard + glasses dude? -- Hindleyite Converse 16:53, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- Yup--Sycamore (Talk) 16:54, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- Awesome. Go Mickey! I'll be routing for him... -- Hindleyite Converse 16:59, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sure if Mickey needs any woodworking down with power tools, he'll ask Carol round. --Asahatter (annoy) 17:28, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- Someone needs to record the episode or something, and put the video on youtube, whereupon they must link or embed it here. I've never heard of this show, but if Mickey's on it, it must be good. - P.M., WotM, & GUN, Sir Led Balloon (Tick Tock) (Contribs) 20:17, Nov 12
- I fear that Countdown may reinforce any views that non-Brits have about Britain... although based on a French show, it's one of those things that probably doesn't travel well across the oceans. Not to knock Mickey's ability, because it's hard to do well in - but then most of us Brits don't understand the appeal of spelling bees.
- I thought it was all just about Carol's legs myself... Awesome Mickey. MrN Fork you! 21:21, Nov 12
- I have no idea what we're talking about. I'm just here to be supportive. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 21:38, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

- Sounds like that movie From Dusk 'Til Dawn. You aren't by any chance a biker named Sex Machine, are you Modus? - P.M., WotM, & GUN, Sir Led Balloon (Tick Tock) (Contribs) 00:14, Nov 13
- The original screenplay, based on a true story, was called El Burrito del Diablo. I was Sax Machine. It was supposed to be a musical. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 00:46, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

- Indeed. After a bunch of rewrites, my screenplay eventually became Footloose. But this isn't about me. This is about 15Mickey20. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 10:43, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- Yea. This is about Mickey. Congrats dude. Also, I want to see the video sometime soon. Lieutenant THEDUDEMAN Dude ... Totally UOTM KUN GotA F@H 13:32, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that was me. I was the one with the beard and glasses - the one who won a lot. I'll be back for the series quarter finals at the start of December. I've got all my shows recorded on DVD and might try to put a clip on youtube, when I'm less lazy. I don't know if it works for foreigners, but you might be able to see me on the channel 4 website. -- 15Mickey20 (talk to Mickey) 13:34, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
- I like how you said "meant to be funny" -- what about insomnia? Anyway that's me all caught up with the countdown, congrats on the winz! SK Sir Orian57Talk RotM 17:56 15 November 2008
When I first saw this topic
I thought some Uncyclopedian was crazy enough to be featured on the American cable news program "Countdown With Keith Olbermann." I guess this is alright too though. --
19:37, 13 November 2008 (UTC)- Isn't Olbermann the one that isn't evil? An Uncyclopedian on O'Reilly's show, now that would be awesome...provided, of course, that the formidable authors' writing skills here somehow magically translated into skilled, thoughtful, live oration. Or we could write it and feed it to one of the UnNews audio people (you know who you are. Shame!) to say, and their audio could be dubbed onto video of someone pretty speaking (which excludes everyone here. You know who you are. Shame!). Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 23:01, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- Actually they are all evil because TV is Evil! You'll never learn the truth from watching TV, all you will get is brainwashing propaganda and hypnotic ads with Blipverts that can make your head explode. Also there is a guy named Max Headroom that keeps interrupting various programs and making smart alex witty remarks on them like he is Oscar Wilde or something. :) --Lt.
