You reversed M and m, and the o should be lower case. Otherwise perfect, David.

m. = 24/20 11/7* 8/4(2)
O. = 13/9 11/7* 8/4(2)
M = 24/20 11/7* 6/2(2)
N. = 13/9 11/7* 6/2(2)
Z.. = 24/20 13/9(2) 11/7*
o.. = 11/7* 8/4(3)

The first and third plays are Mayfair splits. By the hit/most/6 rule, keeping the most points (8pt + 2pt, instead of the 4pt only) gets the capital M.

The second play is in the O family because of its two outers and two jumps. No other O play outranks it.

The sixth play is similar but instead of O's 2:2 ratio (see above), its 3:1 ratio puts in the underlined O family. Lower case o = 11/7* 8/4(3) makes one fewer point than O = 13/9(2) 11/7* 8/4.

The fifth play is Z. Note that B is the only BEACON letter with no underlined family. Instead, we divide the labor amongst B (2:2), S (3:1), and Z (1:3).
