Andy Naylor has a 4th win, can he get a 5th to further cement his spot on the leaderboard?
Join Callum for the recap later.

I can only get 972 in the 1st numbers: ((7x8)-1-1)x(9x2)
Is there a way to get closer?

Was pleased with 960 on the first numbers, but I see that one away from 968 is possible.

That numbers was brutal. I had 8 away, but apparently 969 is possible, similar method to Bradley's

Tricky teaser with both DISOWNED and DISENDOW as anagrams.

Didn't expect either player to get 789 there - well done to Steve.

Nice - standard 3L method didn't work there.
Also nice the numbers games went 0L, 2L, 1L, 3L.

Yeah - I wonder how many games have featured four different numbers selections. Might have a look at the wiki but there's like a years worth of games to scroll through...

Last numbers alt :
(25 x 10) + ((75 + 3) / 2) = 289

Didn't scroll through all the games by myself or anything. Nope.

For 4th numbers I did:
(50x10 + 75 + 3)=578; 578/2 = 289.

Andy slipped a bit today, only clinching it with two rounds to go.

Looks like there's only SPOLIATION and SPOLIATOR in the ODE3 - I presume SPOLIATE is CSW valid, looks like it could be bloody useful in Scrabble.

All FOUR numbers games.....................
DIOPTRE in round 8 and DREIDL in round 13 as nice equallers.
4th Numbers Alt.: ((75 + 25 - 2) x 3) - (50 / 10) =
289

Yeah 4 large doesn't count. Haha, I obviously meant 4 different, thanks for pointing that out so graciously and with so little attention.

Cool, might be available next series or whenever they roll it out. Will look out for it.
