Tourney round: Royal Rumble: Battle Royal

	Liam O It's a really great tournament Andy, fair play to you
	Fi Thorne Aaargh, 3 points short because I saw a letter that wasn't there! Although I'm sure there will be higher scores coming in this round anyway!
	Fiona T yep think my conundrum might be apt!
	Dave Kempshall One big score (150ish) here and the field will be brutalised in round one.
	Andres S. Keeping my damn fingers crossed here that I stay alive, went too fast on my con
	Gerry Tynan Haha Start the game thinking just play it safe. Round two and i go for a risky seven i've had disallowed loads of times and then get a 10 hardness conundrum I've never heard of to leave me on 99. That'll be the end of that
	Elwin Carlos Wow, cutoff is now 107. Don't anybody dare score more than 145!
	Fi Thorne Stops kicking myself for messing up one round!
	Jason Turner LoL great format. Once I chickened the 9 in round one it was all going downhill. Good luck to all left in
	Fi Thorne Maybe Andy could run a sub tourney for all the people who crashed out in round one! :-)
	Dave Kempshall Well, everyone under 107 is gone already thanks to Matt's 142.
	Matt OC Sorry guys :/
	Andres S. Well Matt's con is certainly what we're all seeking now. Honestly Matt though, vwd on a solid score. Let's see if someone gets 146+ to see if only the 110's and above remain...
	Maria Chandler I was lucky and the gods gave me nice letters :)
	Fi Thorne Wow, that's a fantastic score Maria!
	Maria Chandler Thank you, Fi!
	J Bartram Well done you.
	Stephen Elsley Well done everyone on your great scores. Must remind myself not to enter these tournaments so I don't show myself up.
	Andy SC Last day to play Round 1 games.
	Andy SC Matt OC is the highest scoring player in Round 1. However we lose 29-players in Round 1. Thanks for playing to the 29.
	Sean D 153 for Sam CL already in round 2!!
	Liam O 114.75 the score to beat i think
	Owen Carroll If that’s true, I’m doomed:(
	Ian Volante Blummin eck.
	Andy SC Last day to play Round 2 games.
	Andy SC Sam is the highest scoring player in Round 2. 11-players are eliminated in Round 2. Thanks to the 11 for playing.
	Martyn Pegram Thanks for organising Andy
	Andy SC Last day to play Round 3 games.
	Andy SC Dan is the highest scorer in Round 3. We have one elimination in Round 3. Thanks for playing, Anthony.
	Dave Kempshall Fun while it lasted. Cheers for hosting Andy and gl to those still in the ring :)
	Adam Dexter Oosh 2 points short. A slow start put me on the back foot throughout. Hope the remaining ones enjoy the rest :)
	Andy SC Last day to play Round 4 games.
	Andy SC Ronan is the highest scorer in Round 4. 6 players are eliminated in Round 4. Thanks for playing to the 6 eliminated players.
	Jason C. Thanks, Andy, and good luck everyone.
	Andy SC Last day to play Round 5 games
	Andy SC Hazel is the highest scoring player in Round 5. Steven, Mike, Arthur and Ahmed are all eliminated. Thanks for playing.
	Arthur P Thanks andy!
	Andy SC Adam with a huge score eliminates 7 players. Thanks to the 7-players for playing.
	Andy SC We are now down to 24% threshold.
	Ian Linton Great score last round Adam, well done and good luck to everyone left in. Thanks Andy for organising the tourney.
	Andy SC Sam is the highest scoring player in Round 7. Dan is eliminated. Thanks for playing, Dan. We are now down to 23% threshold.
	Adam Latchford 163 giveth 163 taketh
	Andy SC Sam is the highest scorer in Round 8 eliminating three people in the process. That's for playing, Adam, Liam and George. Down to a 22% threshold.
	Liam O Thanks Andy....really enjoyed the format and would love to play it more often. Cheers
	Andy SC No eliminations in Round 10. 21% threshold now.
	Andy SC No eliminations in Round 11. 20% threshold now.
	Andy SC Tom is eliminated in Round 12. Thanks for playing, Tom. 19% threshold now in play.
	Andy SC Correction: Tom was eliminated in Round 11. No eliminations in Round 12. 18% threshold now.
	Andy SC No eliminations in Round 13. 17% threshold now in operation.
	Andy SC No eliminations in Round 14 16% threshold now in operation.
	Andy SC No eliminations in Round 15. 15% threshold now in operation.
	Andy SC No eliminations in Round 16. 14% threshold now in operation.
	Andy SC Ronan is eliminated in Round 18. 13% threshold now in operation.
	Andy SC Addition to above: Thanks for playing, Ronan
	Zohaib Rehan Want to settle this by playing a 1v1 15 rounder instead, no luck involved?
	Andy SC The intention is to run it out to a conclusion against Prune
	Zohaib Rehan So be it thought it would only be fitting since our lifetime h2h is 2-2 but suppose there will be no such luck when i'm piledriving him to oblivion (this sounds beyond lame but i need a quick retort and am not fully invested in the wacky Wrestling nomenclature).
	Zohaib Rehan And it's what the people want
	Zohaib Rehan Or I could go out on a misclick ggs
	Andy SC DING DING DING!!! WE HAVE A WINNER - SAM CAPPLEMAN-LYNES!!! Well done to Zohaib on finishing as runner-up. Thanks to everyone else that played.
	Damian McEvoy Superb tweaked format Andy, thanks for running it. Monthly would be awesome. ;-) Well done Sam!
	Andy SC @Damian - something that could be run to different variants with slight tweaks here and there to find a good formula.
	Fi Thorne It was great having it all on one page so we could see what was happening! If there's any way of doing a similar tourney, but where lower ranked players have more chance of staying in for longer, that would be amazing! :-)
Show all comments
	Damian McEvoy Oh yeah that'd be great, like where 100 or more is required for Round 1 and then the minimum keeps ticking up a notch.
	Fiona T Think the format works well as it is tbh :) But could have a 'B' tourney for players rated < 1500 or something?
	Gerry Tynan Despite getting wiped out in the first round this time, I like the format. Everyone not playing the same game allows for a bit of luck that might let us non-elite players get a bit of a run.
	Adam Latchford This will be fun next time around now the maxes will be a lot lower! (sam will walk it again)
	Andy SC Doing Battle Royal, Royal Rumble and Tag-Team Royal Rumble all at the same time could be fun :)

Tourney round: Royal Rumble: Battle Royal

Notes from the organizer: Welcome to the first installment of the Apterous Battle Royal. Here is the rules that will be followed throughout:

1. All games played will be Standard 15.
2. All games will be against Apterous Prune
3. All games are to be played within one sitting. If for any reason you have to leave during a game then please let me know as soon as possible. I will judge if the reasoning is valid or not. 25% of your score will be deducted if I consider that questionable activity has taken place.
4. You will have at least two full days to play each game. Failure to play your game will result in you being eliminated from the tournament because there will be no extensions.
5. To remain in the tournament you must score within 25% of the highest scoring player for the round.
6. Once we get to the stage where we have 10 or less players the percentage threshold will reduce by 1% until we have a winner.
7. The deadline for each round will be detailed next to the name of first player that appears alphabetically in the following format - (Date) - Round #.
8. It's up to players to play their game on time. I'm not going to chase you up to play your game. I will post when there is one day left for each round in the comments section.
