BASEST
COMIC
(9+2)*75-3-1=821 (1 off)
HARP
LURKED and UNLOADER just after
(5+6*(50+25)+2+100=927 (6 off) and after time 6*(100+50+5)+6/2=933
MASTER
4*(75-6-1)-5=267
x nothing in time

Oh, well done to spot UNLOADER -- I missed it completely. I'm afraid your after-time solution to round 6 uses the six twice, though.

1. SENATES (best: SUBTEENS)
2. COMFIT (best: COMETIC)
3. 820 = (9 + 1)*(75 - 3) + 100
4. HARP (ALPHA is better, but best is PARRAL)
5. RONDEAU (best: UNLOADER)
6. 932 = 6*(100 + 50 + 5) + 2 [1 off]
7. AIRTIMES
8. 267 = 5*50 + (75 - 6 - 1)/4
9. STYLISHLY (12.6s)

There is precisely one solution to round 6: 933 = (50*(100 - 6) - 25)/5 - 2.

1. BUTANES
2. COMIC
3. 820 = 9*100 - 75 - 3 - 2
4. ALPHA
5. UNLOADER
6. one off: 932 = (100+50+5)*6 + 2
7. SMARTIE
8. 267 = (75-6-1)*4 - 5
9. STYLISHLY - 1.9s

Rejected SMARTIE in round 7. Grrr...

Hi Sam!
