Chris Hare Rumours of the organiser receiving a large charitable donation from a Mr. T. Cappleman are entirely unsubstantiated.

On an unrelated note, could you aptomail me your bank details, Matthew?

Tom Cappleman

Tom Cappleman Sadly Caesar demonstrated his native language ability to good effect there.

Dave Kempshall

Dave Kempshall Tough stuff. Never done Latin before. All wild guesses, but if R1 had seen Caesar declare first I would've matched his / her pergimus, which I idly typed. There just be loads of Latin words because I had 4 of 6 wild guesses being actual words, granted I just went with something-US.

Stu Harkness

Stu Harkness And you got a bit of a shitter getting an unsolvable nums too :(

Dave Kempshall

Dave Kempshall Aye, but luck runs back and forth.

Dave Kempshall

Dave Kempshall Gave myself an outside chance by accepting the 7 points.

Mervyn Tong

Mervyn Tong you're welcome Dave :p

Dave Kempshall

Dave Kempshall Bad luck there Mervyn. Tough last numbers. My charmed life continues

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier A really tough round with only 4 players scoring on a letters round, including Thomas with a cheeky 2 pointer. Top scorer with a whopping 28 points thanks to his first round pencil was Strongest Link Dave R.

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier Mervyn finished tied on points with Jamie, but his higher tournament points total sent him through and Jamie's great run comes to an end. Finishing 12th, Jamie you are the Weakest Link. Goodbye!

Mervyn Tong The master of the narrow escape affords me oneā€¦ unlucky Jamie, tough last numbers! Really incredible run though as Matthew says :)

Dave Robjohns

Dave Robjohns Woooo least impressive strongest link performance everrr :D :D

Adam Latchford

Adam Latchford I mean you bagged a pencil at least...

Jamie French

Jamie French Cheers Matthew, great fun as always. I had autonomous when I buzzed for the conundrum, realised it was 10 letters and panicked!

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier Unlucky, that would have been a great escape!

Tourney round: Weakest Link Mayhem 2021: Round 37 - Latin 9

<< Round 36 - Aegilops 15 | Round 38 - Touchdown Letters Attack >>

Notes from the organizer: As Caesar famously said, "Veni, vidi, vici", and in round 37 it is you that Caesar will, in all likelihood, be conquering via the medium of a Latin 9 rounder.

One lowest scoring Weakest Link will leave the tournament this round. If there is a tie for lowest score then total score in the tournament so far will be the deciding factor (See notes by players' names).
