Dave Robjohns

Dave Robjohns The gruelling journey begins. This is probably the longest event of the lot in terms of the sheer length of time you may need to play to get a medal - multiple hours poured in for some of us last year. 6 players passed 200 rounds in a game and over 4000 rounds were played.

It's important here to note that I'll be checking that games are completed in one sitting (i.e. nobody quits during a round and rejoins to avoid losing the round)

However, in the instance you've been sat there a while and are getting really bored of endless nice numbers, you can type "Pausing long jump at xxx rounds" in the main chat and come back to it later, after waiting 30 seconds. Note you must refresh/leave the room here.

This is all just to make sure there isn't any score doping going on!! I doubt anyone will, but good to be sure :)

Dave Robjohns Secondly: This is set up as a best of 5 to simulate long jump. Some of you won't want that.

Nice this comment and I'll remove your remaining games (this can be before you've played one!!)

Stu Harkness

Stu Harkness Be lucky to last 5 rounds me! XD

Dan Spinks

Dan Spinks I forgot and did an illegal pause in game 3, didn't beat my top score though

Darren Godfrey

Darren Godfrey I'm going to Gary Lineker myself out of this one - retiring hurt with a bad toe

Tourney round: Aptolympics: Tokyo 2021: Event 46: Long Jump (Round 1)

<< Tokyo 2021: Event 38: Baseball (tiebreak) | Tokyo 2021: Event 47: BMX >>

Notes from the organizer: Here's the first event in a while featuring everyone!

Much like the actual long jump, your goal is to get as far as possible in this unwinnable game against Apterous Soap.

Here, you will get 3 attempts against Soap - the top 8 will qualify to get 3 more attempts in Round 2 next week (the highest from your 6 wins) [this is more like olympics]

I will put a comment up - nice it to get your remaining games removed (you can even do this before you play one, if you want...)

Sam won this event last year after racking up about 8 million rounds. [535]
