Originally posted by demonseedTha't the bloody problem with this game. When someone says they have got the number total, or an 8 letter word, I lose sleep, work and food to find it! Took me the whole weekend to get ORPHANS, when some one said they had a 7 letter word. You get strange looks when you are in the shops with a pen and paper, muttering to yourself...
Yeah I can't bloody get 552 either.
But if it is doable I am going to keep trying.
Originally posted by CrowleyOf course u can. You might be a bit late for this game, but at least you'll be warming up for the historic, one of a kind, 5th game, which should be kicking off towards the end of the week.
Can I get in on this game? I know it's late, but I've been very busy lately...
And I can get 552 😉

Wow, that was a tough round. A website that solves the letters and numbers games rated that at 82% difficulty. The next toughest numbers game that has been played so far was 66%. So well done to those who got 552; Freddie, Mayharm, demonseed, marcusr and Crowley. Congrats to those who got within 1; Favs, Starrman, Mat, wucky, The Plumber and Jacko.
Here are all the solutions…
Fred
50 - (100/25) = 46
75/5 = 15 - 3 = 12
46 x 12 = 552
Marcusr
100+50=150
150/25=6
75-6=69
5+3=8
69*8=552
Mayharm
(75 - ((100 + 50)/25)) * (5 + 3) = 552
demonseed
75 - ((100 + 50)/25) = 69 * (3 + 5) = 552
Crowley
150/25 = 6
75-6 = 69
5+3 = 8
8*69 = 552
Favs
5*(100+25) = 625
625-75 = 550 and add the 3!
Jacko
5*100=500
500+50+3=553
Starrman
5 x 100 =500
500 + 50 = 550
550 + 3 = 553
Mat Kelley
5*100=500
50+3+500=553
The Plumber
551: 100x5 + 50 + ((75/25)/3)
wucky
100x5=500+50+3=553
That round has really changed the game around and the scores now look like this…
Mayharm 43
Marcusr 42
demonseed 42
The Plumber 40
Starrman 33
Alcra 33
Chris 32
Freddie 24
Favs 23
Jacko 17
wucky3 15
Mat 10

PM me your solutions. All people who correctly solve it get 10 points. In case of a tie, there will be a conundrum playoff. DO NOT USE ANY third party assistance/webpage of any kind.
* alcra cries foul! He never had a chance to submit last round! Anyway, 553 would not have cut it anyway (grapes, sour, throws on ground). The eight letter word every one is sniggering about, is indeed two four letter words (four letter word? bad pun, sorry. Averts eyes from Richard, who glares at the pun-theft).
Any way, I have a 9 letter word, so adieu folks till next time.
EDIT: alcra realizes that 9 letters is the target anyway, since it is a conundrum. Blushes, and hides under the table.
