4th Numbers Alt.: 100 * 8 - 75 + 2 + 4 + 8. Amirite?

Did Susie totally ad-lib that definition (and pronunciation) of TIMEOUS? I thought it was a synonym of timid.

R1 - Champer
R5 - Outsize
last numbers round alternative:
(8X100) - 75 = 725
725 + 4 +2 + 8 = 739

I thought the same but this put me right

It's TIMOROUS we were thinking of

AMIRITE is basically a slang American spelling of "am I right" ... but it seems it doesn't count as an American spelling....

Weird no-one saw that. With it being a odd target and only one odd number (the 75) and with 8*100 staring you in the face, this seemed really obvious to me.

I did it Rachel's way, but I just thought of going for either 664 + 75 or 814 - 75, and I did the first option first, so didn't bother with the second one.

Beat Luke in the 2 rounds he didn't max on in this one, but he smashed me with PARVITUDE, so fair play.
