Damian McEvoy Excellent format Matthew & great fun - thanks so much for organising! | |
Matthew Tassier 20 max games racked up in the first round this year, with Dave O'Donnell being the Strongest Link on his tournament debut. | |
Matthew Tassier John has a lucky escape thanks to an unplayed game. Ciaran, you are the Weakest Link. Goodbye! | |
John Gillies Jeezo, was sure I was a goner! |
Notes from the organizer: The bots have been randomly allocated to the variants and, for a relatively east start, round one in this year's tournament will be played in Unlimited Junior format against Apterous Waldorf. Possible targets are 11-100 and the two large numbers available in this format are 10 and 20. Waldorf likes a friendly pick of 1 large, and will solve quite a few rounds. One quirk of this format is that if 20 is your target then to get your 10 points you must still do a calculation even if there is a 20 in the selection. (e.g. do 20*1 or 20+3-3 or 4*5 etc.)
Just ONE lowest scoring Weakest Link will be removed from the tournament this round and if there is a tie for lowest score then I shall allow the tied players through as it's the first round. However, any players failing to play their game within the time limit will definitely be eliminated, taking the Weakest Link spot.
The numbers by each fixture are the total points each player has scored in the history of Weakest Link Numbers tournaments. Just for fun, they have no bearing on the outcome of the round.
Thanks all for entering!
