Tourney round: Beat Your Bot x3: Bullet Conundrum Attack

	Bradley Horrocks The top 3 after Round 1: Wesley Barton - 10 Alex H - 5 Matty Artell - 3 To be honest, fairly meaningless at this stage. Or, could round 1 be a bellweather for how people fare in this tourney? I hope not, I wasn't one of the 16 winners!
	Bradley Horrocks The top 3 after Round 2: Wesley Barton - 20 Tracey Mills - 10 Adam Dexter - 8 the leaderboard can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z89dt0KFUW9feNkuLU76Cx1hnkV0TAL_WK0cxSZxmDc/edit#gid=29032435 From the 3rd attempt and on, the bot will be lowered, and the following game will be unlocked. However no points will be awarded for the following game until the reattempted game is won.
	Bradley Horrocks The top after Round 3: =1 Wesley, Elizabeth, Fiona, Jamie - 20 5 Tracey - 19 6 Dave - 14 Oh so tight at the top! Elizabeth will be top on her own after Round 4 if she wins her Masters game.
	Bradley Horrocks The top after Round 4: (brackets denote points on offer in their next game) Elizabeth - 50 (56) Dave - 39 (25) Matty - 29 (35) Elizabeth is in charge but she's arguably playing her hardest game yet. Dave is reattempting Bullet NA which he won comfortably last time so will be hoping to take advantage of any slip ups. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z89dt0KFUW9feNkuLU76Cx1hnkV0TAL_WK0cxSZxmDc/edit#gid=29032435

	Bradley Horrocks The top after Round 5: Wesley - 69 (14) Dave - 64 (25) Bradley - 55 (70) I could go top after R6 but don't put money on it, a bullet conundrum attack against Prime stands in my way. With his list almost complete, Dave is the only player who can still take advantage of unlimited attempts in R7!
	Dave Robjohns How does that bit work? Do I basically get to go for Bullet CA for 7*10 points (or whatever) until I win it?
	Bradley Horrocks Yep that's right (although multiplier won't increase), you can win just 1 in 50 tries for 50 points :D
	Bradley Horrocks The top after Round 6: Dave - 89 (up to 50) Wesley - 83 (40) Matty - 64 (56) The winner may or may not already be decided... many points on offer throughout the leaderboard though, who will be the biggest climber in R7? Dave gets unlimited attempts at any format for R7 - he gets 50 points if he draws/wins a BCA against Velv. Look left for spoilers
	Bradley Horrocks The third edition of Beat Your Bot was at least as manic as the previous two, with an emphasis on choice. The traditional 9R and 15R were popular, but so was Bullet NA, which was a wise choice for anyone who picked it - 100% success rate for the humans! There were some interesting tactics, some opting for lower multipliers but easier formats to ensure points, others risking hard formats and banking on a few inspired performances. Anyway, the scores: 3rd Place: Matty Artell - 4 wins, 64 points (assuming Dan doesn't beat Prime in a 15R in the next two hours) 2nd Place: Wesley Barton - 6 wins, 123 points 1ST PLACE: Dave Robjohns - 6 wins + bonus, 139 points Dave played safe by picking Bullet NA multiple times, but this enabled him to get the bonus points in R7. Wesley was unlucky, he could have won if he'd ordered his formats differently. But it's President Robjohns who tormented Velvet to become the 3rd winner of the BYB series! Thanks to everyone who played, hope you enjoyed it
