R2: VALONIAS
R4: DORMICE was an impressive find. ERGODIC was mine.
R6: (8+7)*50-25+3=728 was a quicker way.

BUNCHIER was very good too.
Series 78 Runner-up

Has there ever been a less-scrambled 9 than SPCEIATSE? 5 letters in the correct position and the other 4 right next to where they needed to be

It might depend on the measure. TINCLEMEN involved just moving the T to the end but all 9 were out of place.

Apparently on Apterous, some guy once missed a nine spelled out in the selection.

I wasn't really thinking of conundrums, but yeah that's a bad one

Seems unlikely. It'd have to be some kind of real idiot.

I think TORNADOES from October 2021: https://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_7627

Was surprised neither contestant spotted this at the time
