New game 399 is now available.
Round 1: B S T K L O I C E
I was a bit surprised that the Macquarie did not list BLOKIEST, incidentally.
My selection: [invalid -- BLOCKIEST]
Best: OBELISK
Round 2: A R N A F I O S H
My selection: FASHION
Round 3: Target 675 from 25 50 4 1 2 4
My selection: 675 = 25*(50 + 4)/2
Round 4: C A T E X U N E P
My selection: PEANUT
Best: CUNEATE
Round 5: D F I B E O E G S
My selection: BODGIES
Round 6: Target 648 from 50 25 6 5 5 10
One off is the best to be done here, and there are only two ways to get that close.
My selection: 649 = 10*50 + 6*25 - 5/5 [1 off]
Round 7: M O C D R L I E I
My selection: DORMICE
Best: DOMICILE
Round 8: Target 815 from 100 6 1 2 4 6
My selection: 814 = (6 + 2)*(100 + 1) + 6 [1 off]
Best: 815 = (6 + 6 - 4)*(100 + 2) - 1
Round 9: IT'S COGNAC
