 | Joseph H I mentioned this in chat about whether the raw score would be used, and now thinking about it am wondering other people's opinion on this. |
 | Fiona T I think the description makes it clear you need to 'beat the bot' |
 | John Beresford Don't be vulgar, Fiona. |
 | Dave Robjohns Yep, to clarify, you need to win against Nude to get a game against Plum, etc. If people then have identical records at whatever stage and medals depend on it, I will look at raw scores. |
| Dave Robjohns This event has finished early as the only player left standing has beaten Velvet, which nobody else did

Notes from the organizer: Event 14 of the games is Trampolining, the first Gymnastics discipline. In trampolining you keep bouncing higher and having more time to do complicated manoeuvres (like spelling that word...), so this is simulated well by having increasingly more letters to look at.
I'll also be gradually ramping up the difficulty here.
You'll start off against Nude, and work your way up through the bots. If you lose a game, you are out of the competition. If you win, you face the next bot. The difficulty ramps up by ~500 rating points per round.
Deadlines for completing rounds:
Nude 5th July
Plum 12th July
Velvet 17th July
Prime 22nd July
Rex 25th July (if needed)
If players lose at the same stage, the tiebreak is total maxes (including previous rounds) and then points off the max, and then points scored.
This event is worth 6 medals.
Fun fact: In 2003 Brian Hudson set the world record for consecutive somersaults on a trampoline, with 3333.
