Way after the time, but finally got R6:

((((100-1)*8)-6)/6)+50 = 181

Lowest winning score ever?

Anyone notice the bad edit in R7? They gave the score just as they were finishing writing as 18-12, when it was 18-19, clearly cos they were still using the clock from the last round, as it wasn't zooming in, as in other letters games...

3rd Numbers Alt.: ((75 - 2) x (10 + 3)) + 9 - 4 = 954

Did it eventually also:
((8+1)*50)/6+100+6=181

And a friend's been working on it too and came up with:
((100+50)/6*(8-1)+6
