Spoilers for Tuesday 17 January 2017 (Series 76, Prelim 6)

Post by Johnny Canuck »

1st numbers alt.: 75 * 7 - 50 - 6 / 2

Susie mentioned FRAGILE in the FRAILER round but didn't actually note that it was available in the selection. For purposes of the wiki, I've left it un-asterisked. Hope nobody is overly traumatised by this.
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.

Had farries in that round but apparently that's not what a farrier does! Hmmm.
My way to 920 was (75+25)x9 + ((3+2)x4)

SEABORNE in round 12.

Disappointing game for Suzy to lose on. Looked like a potential octochamp. I think it was largely the numbers.

Something like "Speaking of FRAILER, FRAIL is derived from the Latin word FRAGILIS, which, of course, also gave us FRAGILE." And then it was immediately on to the next round.

I'd say that counts. I won't be traumatised.
