Apolune is a mass noun, so no plural...

The dictionary likes it though. Also the definition and example sentences don't really seem very mass nouny.

Can't remember Susie ever allowing a non-food mass noun word to stand...
Of course I might be wrong.

When the clock restarted after Josephine's incorrect conundrum guess, did the clock music start again from the beginning rather than picking up from where it left off?

Yes, we had that problem at COHUD in November for the final conundrum. :P

LIVENER in round 5 and AMADOU in round 7, PIETIES in round 8 and PROTEGE in round 13.

4th Numbers Alt.: ((50 - 7) x (8 - 5)) - (7 - 1) = 123
