 | Adam Latchford by far the worst bot possible for this round |
 | Gevin Chapwell And therefore the best bot. |
 | Neil Collins do not raw-dog duckdown :/ |
 | Matthew Tassier Tom seems in consistently strong form this year, cruising to a 4th Strongest Link which is also the 4th time he's been the top player on a Duckdown round. No other player has been Strongest Link 4 times on a single variant. |

| Matthew Tassier In a very tight finish, Alex overtakes Martin T. by 2 points and Ian V. on margin of victory thanks to his round 20 solve. Meanwhile raw-dogger Neil is left licking his wounds. So Ian, Martin and Neil you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye! |
 | Ian Volante Oh, is this on raw scores? Bugger! |
 | Chris Butler No, it was because Plum scored more points against you than he did against Alex :/ |
| Ian Volante Ahh, I thought the total score was the first tiebreaker. |
| Neil Collins Thanks for hosting |
Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament - 2024: Round 12 - Duckdown
Notes from the organizer: Round twelve is another awkward one, played in Duckdown format against Apterous Plum. In Duckdown possible targets are 101-1999 and you get 7 numbers to use rather than 6 but you must "duck" (not use) one of them. Plum likes to pick 7 small numbers, which will likely be a bit of a problem if you are unlucky enough to get a lot of high targets. Also, Plum will probably deliver an annoying mix of perfect solves and total misses.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 40
