Andy SC Should have probs had a practice game but didn't | |
Eoin Jackson New lowest scoring survivor record! | |
M S R An Apto game rarely gets me 'in the zone.' It did this time. Tass, your tourney is glorious :D | |
Matthew Tassier With the sharp rise in difficulty producing a very spread out field of scores, Sam's 187 means he is the first player to be Strongest Link twice this year. Thomas, successfully employing his trademark random choice strategy, and Florence take over as joint highest cumulative scorers. | |
Matthew Tassier Alex becomes the new lowest-scoring Hyperlock survivor as we lose 2 of our 12 ever-present players alongside a newcomer who'd never played a Hyperlock NA before. Tracey, John and Adrian you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye! |
Notes from the organizer: Round six is time for a step up from the challenges so far, with the first trip to Hyper-land in the shape of a Hyperlock format game against Apterous Nude. Nude won't be scoring a great many points, but will pick just 1 large number which can be awkward with a big target and a small "large" number. As it's a Lock format, don't forget to use the red number in your calculations.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 59
Weakest Links required: 3
