NG 895

New game 895 is now available.

Apologies for the erratic posting schedule recently; I've been rather busy, alas.  I'd hoped to get a buffer up to 900 before taking a break, but it's become clear to me that I just can't afford the time right now.  So there will be a two week hiatus, with the next game being posted on April 10.

Well done on the full monty Sam. Never heard of the word, and had to look it up.

Hey Sam, I see Daniel C is on the TV eps at the moment. Does that mean you are coming up soon, as I remember he was on that famous maths solution episode of yours.

I believe that episode was from the finals (spoiler). But another familiar face is coming up after Daniel...

2. BECOME
3. 350 = 7*50
4. BRANCH

Thanks for the heads up Geoff. And you two with your ANTIMERES...
