I also get 675 for best packings in 10x10 base 10, not considering palindromes:
* rows -> 8*10 = 80, counting reverses -> 160
* same for columns -> 160
* diagonals -> (1+2+...+8) + (1+2+...+7) = (72/2 + 56/2) = 64, counting reverses -> 128
* same for antidiagonals -> 128
------------------------------------------------
sum = 576

the first 99 scores are free -> total = 576 + 99 = 675

But now we still need to subtract the number of palindromes > 100 in the range.

So I think your first number (647) looks better.

50 palindromes under 600 but above 100 gives 625 which then has 2 more palindromes under it so 623 is closer. 11 by 11 falls to 755, 12 by 12 to 899, 13 by 13 to 1065 (1437 if you include 4 digits)

Yep, looks better

But as you mentioned, probably the upper bounds are still far too high...

Yeah , another consideration is the earlier bounds minus 99, work for all bases because all they count, is the number of sets of three that are on diagonal or straight across/(up/down) . There may be 61440 three hexit, hexadecimal numbers only 576 of these will fit into a 10 by 10 square at most. Wonder if pigeonhole principle can help eliminate duplicates in it's probabilistic form perhaps.

My best upper bound is much better: 505 for m=n=10;base=10.
The simple idea is that we need a new "line" (row/column/diagonal) for x, if
x%base=0 or x<=reverse(x,base), when we consider the x numbers from [10^(L-1),10^L) interval in increasing order.

yeah I wasn't really considering reversal for my bound but I know there's only 504 numbers you need under 1000 for all the reversals to be there as well. partly how I did my checking actually.

Here is my update. I found new base 10 top scores for many entries with m>=6, nothing new for m<6.

Summary of best base 10 results: (increment on Robert's table)

I posted the latest 10x10 as an image on FB as a challenge for friends to try to find out how far it goes. In a few days I will post the current best 20x20. I will credit the creators as 'number nerd friends'.

change that to a 1 and you get higher unless 1184, is only once in the puzzle ( I'll double check for more I may have missed) 554 may be a deal breaker as well.

Till "Tilman Neumann" Jan 2016 Germany 700₈ Posts	Yep, looks better But as you mentioned, probably the upper bounds are still far too high... Last fiddled with by Till on 2018-09-03 at 16:59 Reason: note on still too wide bounds
