14 - for variety. If I wanted to play letters all the time, I'd be a Scrabbler :P

I think its an interesting topic lol. The 14-round format, as it had 4 numbers rounds. I dont think the maths side of the game is currently emphasised enough.

My format would be: Part 1. LLLN DC - TTT - Part 2. LLN Susie LLN - TTT - Part 3. LLLNC.

The champ would have first pick of the letters in each section, including after Susie's section. I'd also replace one of the current TTT's with a numbers puzzle/equation. Perhaps the answer to the numbers puzzle would be a famous year or something. An event that took place that year could be the clue for the break.
