Andy SC I forgot to mention that for Week 2 the scores you achieve in both games will be combined to get score for that week. | |
Owen Carroll Is it against bots or people? | |
Andy SC Oliver - all matches are against Apterous Prune. It says so in first paragraph after the schedule. | |

Owen Carroll Thanks Andy | |
Ronan M Higginson Why do loads of Andy's comments come out twice? | |
Ronan M Higginson And for the record, I originally came up with the "Like Tourneys? Like Christmas? You've come to the right place" if you read chat logs from 2019-09-30 19:44:40

Andy SC Firstly, I have no idea why loads of comments appear twice. Secondly, the whole "Like tourneys?" thing has a been done with other tournaments before so it is hardly a new idea. | |
Ronan M Higginson OK, didn't know that |
Notes from the organizer: Do you like tournaments? Do you like Christmas? You have come to the right place if you do. A number of years ago on Apterous I hosted a 12-days of Apterous tournament series and that has provided the inspiration and since the shops are getting in the spirit I thought I would jump on the band wagon. The tournament will be lasting less than 12 weeks in order to get it finished before Christmas, so some weeks will have two games to play. Below is the schedule that the tournament will follow:
Week 1: 1 Speeding Second - 21st October
Berserk letters Attack
Week 2: Double Delight - 28th October
Aegilops Numbers Attack
Unlimited 9
Week 3: 3 French Hens - 4th November
French 9
Week 4: 4 Weeks in Touch - 4th November
Touchdown Conundrum Attack
Week 5: 5 Golden Goats - 11th November
Goatdown Standard
Week 6: 6 Usual Numbers - 18th November
Numbers Attack
Week 7: 7 Lurking Letters - 25th November
Junior Letters Attack
Week 8: 8 Rocking Rocks - 25th November
Octorock 15
Week 9: 9 Standard Letters - 2nd December
Standard 15
Week 10: 10 Letters Selection - 9th December
Lockdown Conundrum Attack
Week 11: 11 Weeks All Done - 9th December
Omelette Numbers Attack
Week 12: 12 Hyper Letters - 16th December
Hyper Letters Attack
I will leave sign-ups open to the 27th October and will give you 2 weeks to complete Week 1 from the date provided above. All matches will be played against Apterous Prune unless anybody as any alternative suggestions.
- The scoring will work the same way as the Daily Duel i.e. 1st gets number of points based on how many people enter, 2nd one less than that and so on until last place each week gets 1 point.
- Any max game in the tournament will be worth 3 bonus points.
- Any pencil achieved will be worth 2 bonus points
- There will also be another feature titled 'Christmas Present' this will be assigned to each week where you can pick up bonus points but the catch is you will not know what it consists of for each week until that week is finished. Will it be good for you or bad for you? Kind of like actual Christmas Presents.
So who will win and be crowned the 12-weeks of Christmas Apterous Champion?
If you have any questions please ask.
