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.

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.
