Eoin Jackson The speed rounds kill me.
| |
Jamie French Great stuff Eoin. Still bullet, hyper bullet and instant to look forward to. :) | |
Eoin Jackson Tx!
| |
Tim Down Gutted. Done by misclicks and nerves. Easily my worst ever speed numbers attack. | |
Steve Balog Going to take a DNF here, not really been in the right frame of mind to run this recently.
| |
Eoin Jackson Whoa Tim!
| |
Tim Down Pfffff. Can't believe it. I was so cross with myself after I played this round. I think I'll do less practice and less worry for the next round. | |
Chris Butler There's a fine balance between not being too blasé and not being too cautious/nervous. A close call can work to your advantage in the long-run though as I discovered in last years comp | |
Elliott Mellor I don't do practise games really. I might if it's a variant I'm not used to but in general I just find it better to get out the way. It's not like 1 practise game is going to enormously change your abilities. But that's just my opinion. | |
Tim Down I found a few practice games helped a fair bit with the earlier Hyper rounds, and practice in general is only going to help in the long run, but I agree one practice game is not going to make much difference apart from psychologically. | |

Gevin Chapwell I think it can make a difference especially if you haven't played that variant in a while or even ever. Each extra practice game is likely to make less difference but the first will have the most effect. | |
Eoin Jackson Practise games >:(
| |
Matthew Tassier A cracking max game including a surprising 4L pick in the first round sees Strongest Link Chris climb to second place on cumulative score. A couple of other excellent 197s from Zarte and Elliot. | |
Matthew Tassier And late drama at the other end sees a couple of relieved players sneak into the next round. So, thanks for playing but, Jim and Steve you are the Weakest Links, Goodbye! | |
Chris Butler Yeah, I intended to try the whole thing on 4L but quickly bottled it! Luckily I didn't regret making the switch |
Notes from the organizer: Time to step it up the pace a bit now as round eleven is be a Speed Numbers Attack against Apterous Waldorf. Waldorf likes 1 large and seems to panic in speed rounds meaning he may not even trouble the scorers.
The two lowest scoring players in this round will leave the tournament. If there is a tie for lowest scores then margin of victory/defeat will be taken into account amongst tied players followed, if necessary, by total score in the tournament so far (see notes by matches).
Well done on making it this far!
