Looking at that, I'm not sure I would have done much better if I had played that last round

I got 71 and 73 in 5 sec
I knew 72 was a cairns map
But 79 and 80 would never have been found by me.

I, too, should have thanked thenobodies80 when I was congratulating the winners. I had a lot of fun over the many weeks of searching.
