How many would you score if you did it again?

Hiya, maybe a bit pointless, but for those have-been Octochamps or those who think they could now, if you went on again, do you think you could still become an Octochamp? and if so how many points do you reckon you'd score over 8 games? Be perfectly honest here!
There are also the game disciplines as well, are you all better or slightly worse at them now? Letters games I will have deteriorated at, conundrums I'm slightly slower on, but the numbers game I'm better on then when I was a contestant. In my Octochamp run I scored 213 on the numbers and the 27 dropped were from 9 rounds of scoring 7 - watching my Octochamp run back I got 6 of the 9 missed and if I became an Octochamp again I'd be disappointed to score less than 225 on them. I scored 50 on conundrums and would probably get the same.
Overall, considering the stamina issue and that its likely you'd have to play 5 in a day, I reckon I could score around 820-830 these days in an Octo run.
Checking the records, 9 people have beaten my score and 1 equalled. For those high Octo scoring, apterous junkies, what aggregate score would you classify as fearsome? For me, anyone who averages above 830 I would classify as fearsome.
Maybe pointless as well, but what do you think are aggregate milestones and what score do you think makes someone look statistically elite at the game? I'd say 800 and
900 obviously for the figures but I'd also say 840 and up because it averages over 7+ a round and I'd say that was the figure that makes someone look a statistically elite player.
This is just purely out of interest, yes this might intrigue Gevin and this definitely isn't Zef hacking into my computer otherwise I would take him to court and sue the f**k out of him
