INSIPIDLY in R5

Posted: **Sat Mar 31, 2018 12:49 pm**

Four Xs? Did Elliott buy the Talaxian edition? (Star Trek: Voyager joke -- I'll see myself out.) Anyway... 129, I fink. My answers in tiny text below.
VANITY, RAVELINS, 102 not written down, TENUTOS, INSIPIDLY, 532=(25*(3+2)+8)*4, PERORATES, ADMOTIVE, 704=(6+8)*50+4, POTAGES, LARIAT, EXPIATE, POSTBOX, 588=(8+4)*(50-6/6), INTERNAUT

In case anyone hasn’t seen my answers, I’ll make them tiny...

R1: BANDITO
R2: INTERVALS
R3: 939 (via 937.5

)
R4: OUTSHONE
R6: 532 (25-3*2)*4*(8-1)
R7: PERORATES
R8: ADOPTIVE
R9: 705 (100-6)*8-50+3
R10: HOSTAGE
R11: OXTAIL
R12: EXPIATE
R13: POSTBOX
R14: (50-8+7)*(6+6)

I think he just forgot to put the X to one side with the other used letters.

Tinytext incoming:

Think this is the best so far, scores 154 out of a possible 158 I think, 12 maxes.
Nice work Stephen!

Maxes for r1 and 11 (the only ones missed by everyone) were ANTIBODY and OXALURIA respectively (I think).

Well done to both who tried mine. Unfortunately for Elliott, ONGLAZES is no good, but even if it's included he prevails with 135. Brave second place finish to Ray though with 127.

Toby takes this round including the very good spot of PALMIFORM.
SLUGFEST, ORBICULE and MAMPELON the missed maxes.
(8*7+2)*(9*2-1) for a neat way for 986

Someone else's turn to take the ropes for a short while in posting rounds, me thinks.

I looked at Johnny's answers before I realised I missed out R13. If I don't copy him, I've only got MANGLE.

You didn't provide a solution to 739, but assuming you got it, 11 maxes but only 99 points (LOGER is invalid).
