Yeah, ridiculously great standard by Paul. I almost thought David was going to unfortunately break the low-scoring record for a champion outside of a series finals, but that last numbers game saved him there.Tony Atkins wrote:Trust Rachel to have another method to show rather than completing the 14x51+10 method.
Well done to Paul. Thought he was going to max the game, but 13 max is pretty hot.
Both contestants could have got there. 8×9×10+9×6-50=724.Tony Atkins wrote:Trust Rachel to have another method to show rather than completing the 14x51+10 method.
Yeah that was my way but then I realised it was basically RRs method too except she just did some split multiplication and saved herself a 9. It was the only round I won tooGavin Chipper wrote:Both contestants could have got there. 8×9×10+9×6-50=724.Tony Atkins wrote:Trust Rachel to have another method to show rather than completing the 14x51+10 method.
Was it not 12 maxes? (Still way better than I usually do on Apterous, even with an optimal blood alcohol content.)Tony Atkins wrote:Well done to Paul. Thought he was going to max the game, but 13 max is pretty hot.
I think he still does have The Record in the new 15-round format.James Robinson wrote:Yeah, ridiculously great standard by Paul. I almost thought David was going to unfortunately break the low-scoring record for a champion outside of a series finals, but that last numbers game saved him there.
Seems there is a beater in RIVALISE not reported here (which is one of those "new" words), so 12 max.Johnny Canuck wrote:Was it not 12 maxes? (Still way better than I usually do on Apterous, even with an optimal blood alcohol content.)
