Without answering the play guesses (yet), here are comments on the Nactation. You were right about three out of four, and the fourth wasn't bad. The standard characters for various plays are:

    C = Cross (24/22, 8/2)
    c = cross (22/16, 8/6)
    R = Run (22/14)
    r = run (24/16)
    S = Split (24/16 13/11)
    s = split (24/18 13/11)
    Z = reverse split (24/22 13/7)
    $ = Slot (13/5), or can be o (outer)

@ (anchor) can be called justifiable for 24/22 13/7, as one can assume that 13/7 is the "obvious" 6, but 13/7 is not massively superior to 8/2; even if it were, @ it is not bulletproof (as Z is). Because it doesn't describe the entire play (as Z does) and assumption conflicts with strict usage, I would tend to avoid using the @ family for this position; strictly speaking, @ (anchor) = 24/22 8/2 and # (alt anchor) = 24/22 13/7; a blot/spare destination that is not in the outer board outranks one that is.
