I bet Zarte was annoyed by missing that numbers game - 837 was possible (25-(2x7))x75+2x6 - but I got the 836
without factoring in the 2 times: (2x6x75)-((25+7)x2)
The 7 points would have equalled Dylan's 974 run and the 10 beaten it (who of course beat Zarte last time round).

Shame it was such a low max game - the 1000 score seems too far away now.
