I must admit I did my usual miss-a-letter-of-the-end-of-a-word thing again where I only came up with ROMANCE and didn't think of adding the 'D' to get ROMANCED :oops:.

In that last letters round, where they only got 4, can you not have AMRIT which is the stuff Sikhs drink?

after failing to find better than 870 (25x(8/2)*8+10*7) I used a solver, but apparently that's the best you can do

Has 4 pairs of letters (R12) happened before ?

Are letter pairs coming out more often recently ?
There were also 3 pairs in R7 and a couple of rounds with 2 pairs (as well as the 3 I's in R 9)

It happened in my 6th game, when the letters were MORESORES [although I don't think they were in that order].

Re that 8 in round 11:

BOERBOEL -some sort of South African dog, as I discovered when I checked the version I had come up with which excluded the second 'o', and which I would not have risked, due to what turned out to be justified confidence in my inability to spell the word!
