CORNED
BONNIEST
8*75-10-1=589
MOUSER
FAECES
(5+1)*75-(7+10-9)=589 took the scenic route
RANKEST
(9-1)*100+25-1=824 (saw 8*103 solution just after)
x rushed in with CONDESCEND and then saw CONDENSED which was almost spelled out

Transcribed round 6 total as that from round 3. Should have been 442.

Bad luck on the conundrum, Mike; some good results from you, though.

1. ROUNDEL
2. BONNIEST (the other eight is INSOLENT)
3. 589 = 8*75 - 10 - 1
4. CUSTOMER (also FRUCTOSE)
5. FACIES
6. 442 = (5 + 1)*75 - (10 + 7 - 9)
7. ANOTHER (best: THANKERS)
8. 824 = (9 - 1)*(100 + 3)
9. CONDENSED (1.8s)
