Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier Similarly to two rounds ago Elliott is well clear of the field and earns another Strongest Link title as he matches the top Hypernasty WL score of all time.

Matthew Tassier Five of the seven qualifiers here were within 1 missed round of getting knocked out, with Florence and Elizabeth both unfortunate to just miss out on survival particularly given that they were the two players losing the most points to Caesar solves. Jack, a bit behind this round, still claims his first top 10 finish. Elizabeth claims 9th with a big improvement on her previous highest finish and last year's finalist Florence is pipped by a single point by Sam (awkward?!) finishing 8th. So, Florence, Elizabeth and Jack you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye!

Elizabeth Beer

Elizabeth Beer Thanks for your brilliant organisation, Matthew. I always look forward to this tournament, and have enjoyed these harder rounds so much I think I might join the party again next year!

Jack Worsley

Jack Worsley Not my finest performance, really should have practised beforehand. Oh well, another excellent tournament, thanks for hosting, Matthew! Good luck to the rest.

Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2023: Round 21 - Hypernasty

<< Round 20 - Octorock | Round 22 - Berserk >>

Notes from the organizer: Well done to the top 10 players this year for making it to round twenty-one where they will take on Apterous Caesar in a Hyper Nasty format game. The large numbers range from the useless to the unwieldy, providing a real test of calculation and focus. Caesar will choose 2 large numbers and will probably solve a few rounds.

Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 10
Weakest Links required: 3
Historic average Hypernasty WL score: 139.95
Highest Hypernasty WL score: 190 - Elliott Mellor (2020), Adam Latchford (2022)
Highest scoring Weakest Link: 150 - Rahul Suresh (2018)
Previous rounds vs this bot: 2016 - Round 21 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=1702 ), 2017 - Round 22 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=1910 )

The THREE lowest scoring players will leave the tournament this round. 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 below).
