Spoilers for Tuesday 26 April 2016 (Series 74 Prelim 60)

[Tony Atkins]

Dave Costello's third game - but he still does not know the standard method: (9x25)+50+3=278

[Tony Atkins]

There's a beater available in R1, and OUTLAND is one of two beaters in R5.

[Tony Atkins]

All he needs to do now is apply the method he used on 2L to 3L...

[Johnny Canuck]

I believe the ROOFIEST^/FRIED round is the (possibly joint) second flattest round ever, with 29 different max words (I think Graeme said the record was 30).

[Ray Wilding]

I believe HARTLIEST used to be the flattest selection, but it now has an 8.
FROODITES might just be the flattest selection now, unless someone can come up with flatter?

[Johnny Canuck]

Looked it up, and EARLYDOWN was the super-flat selection in question; it indeed had 30 maxes (6s) when it came up in 1996, but now it has a darren that goes two points better.

[JJ Smith]

I was just thinking about asking Graeme that actually (haven't read through the whole thread yet).
