I beat the studio on the last numbers:

(10+6)*2+7 for the 39, leaving *25 and -1 for 974.

Good game. Could get a rematch in June.

I got that 39 too. Took the whole time pretty much though.

I really appreciate his subtle Nevermind joke.

Also, REMASTER in whatever round had REMOTERS disallowed in.

Good game guys. Well done Cillian, and unlucky to miss out on octochampdom Peter.
