Because the players failed to get it - I think the dealer should have got at least 2000 points for the 5.3 - well done !

I'll try in a near future to submit some patterns having a potential for a 5.3

With 26 clues, the chances to get a given puzzle are relatively small. In the last game, I did not get either the 2 highest ratings.

And I agree, the hand work made by our friend is grate.
