Feed cut out for no reason during conundrum! What was the scramble? I see that it was unsolved...
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

Just like MAIZES - sometimes it's fine, sometimes it isn't. There was an alt 7 in that round anyway.

Funny that Anthony Endsor solved it from the audience conisdering the first four lettersof the scramble were an anagram of MOLE.....
Definitely not Jamie McNeill or Schrodinger's Cat....

My feed always cuts during Rachel's solves - I guess she did 61x8 in the last one.

Alts for 2nd and 3rd nos: (100+7)x8+75-10 = 921 and 7x50 - 75 + 100/25 = 279

50 x 10 - 12 was the basic method though Tony, right?
