Felt quite sorry for the challenger there, (75-6)*6*50)+100)/25) for 832 in R14.

WANKIEST in round 8.

The 961 was gettable (though not by me) - (3*8+6)*(25+7)+1 = 961

I've just seen another way (so this one was me) - (25+6)*(3*8+7) = 961. It's just 31 squared. Sheesh. I thought I recognised it.

The moment I saw that 961 I thought Rachel would be beside herself with joy. The largest square of a prime number less than 1000, and actually achievable with the numbers available. The Holy Grail. You can only imagine how annoyed she must have been when she finally saw it.
