Fill in the boxes with 12 numbers chosen from the list, one digit per box. The given numbers can be written from left to right, right to left, up, or down. And you canīt use a number more than once (unless it's listed twice). When all the boxes are filled, sum up all digits in the boxes (not the numbers that you used). This is YOUR score.

Whatīs the maximum score YOU can achieve?

Note: this meant to be a contest among users so, to make it fair, avoid using a computer. We are not asking for the maximum score that can be obtained, we are asking for the maximum score that YOU can achieve. And you may post YOUR SCORE in the subject of your comment. The winner (after a reasonable time) will gain an apple (the fruit, not Steve Jobsī).

Unfortunatelly no, TP. I saw this contest about 15 years ago (the site doesnīt exist anymore), and the prize was US$500 for the greater score obtained after 30 days. You had to send (through a common letter) your score and US$1 to participate.

The original, it seems that the highest score achieved was about 220 (I achieved 212), but I made a little change in it to avoid problems.

If Satanīs score is the greatest possible, our souls are lost.
