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

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

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

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).
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

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?

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.

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