My thumbs have complained about the amount of cubing I've been doing, so my puzzle energy will be devoted to L&N again, indefinitely.

1. MOATED
2. INHALERS
3. 904 = (50*2+10+3)*8. Probably late, in which case, 903.
4. DISCO
5. TEAPOT
6. 289 = ((100-3)*75-50)/25
7. FIANCEE
8. 552 = (75-6)*8
9. 11.9s - VESTIGIAL

Hey Sam, re your solution to round 6, that's just not fair. There must be a rule somewhere that says you are not allowed to use your super powers. Welcome back.

Oh and while I'm at it, my round 6 included a transcription error and should have been 50/5 he said sheepishly.

Argh, I messed up the queueing. Apologies! Particularly poor timing, given Sam's return. To keep things in sync with the week, though, games will be resuming on Wednesday. Sorry, Sam. I hope the cubing has not been too painful!

Also, Mike: Very well done on finding INHALERS.

1. FATED
2. INHALERS
3. 904 = (2*50 + 10)*3 + 8
4. DISCO
5. TAPEWORM
6. 289 = 3*(100 - 50/25) - 5
7. FIANCEE
8. 552 = 8*(75 - 6)
9. [N/A -- chosen, but the answer is VESTIGIAL]

Forgot to add: Six is the best to be done in round 1. Well done, both of you!
