 | Sean D not a good time for the mouse to stop working |
 | Eoin Jackson Prediction:- The highest scoring weakest link in this round will be determined by a tie-break based on cumulative points totals... |
| Eoin Jackson Though... what happens if that tie is between (e.g) Tony A and Ben H?
|
 | Matthew Tassier Mostly cumulative points is really a novelty, but you're right, in rounds like this they really come into play.
|
| Eoin Jackson Perfect! |
| Eoin Jackson 2016 - Lowest scoring Instant survivor : 110.
|
| Matthew Tassier This is the earliest that Instant has appeared in the tournament, so I think there was always a fair chance that that could be beaten. |
 | Darren Godfrey Bye bye |
 | Adam Latchford we can walk into the sunset together darren |
| Darren Godfrey Can think of nothing sweeter |
| Eoin Jackson Trapped in Instant jail for the last 3 days, very much hoping that my earlier prediction comes true, and that the tie-break needed will separate some people stuck on 90pts apiece. |

| Matthew Tassier Four players were just one agonising round short of registering the first WL Numbers instant max game including the new joint top scorers, Sam C-L and Strongest Link Elliott. |
| Matthew Tassier In a challenge not to be underestimated, Eoin appears to have scripted his narrow escape as the new lowest-scoring Instant survivor sneaking past Adam L. on the tournament points tiebreak. So, heading off into the sunset, Adam, Darren, Steven and Sean you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye! |
| Adam Latchford Me Darren Stevie and Sean? Sounds like a banging night out tbf |
| Darren Godfrey All over that |
Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2021: Round 8 - Instant
Notes from the organizer: With the junior rounds all completed, it's trickier challenges all the way now. Round eight will see you play an Instant format game against Apterous Prune. No thinking time, it's straight to the input interface with every round being solvable. Prune will help you out though by mimicking your pick. By the way, for the first time we're upping the number of Weakest Links to 4 this round.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors : 64
Weakest Links required : 4
Previous Instant max games : 0
Highest scoring Instant Weakest Link : 130 - Dave Robjohns & Vincent Barcet (2020)
Lowest scoring Instant survivor : 110 - Tom Cappleman (2016)
For more stats see spreadsheet linked below.
FOUR lowest scoring Weakest Links will be removed from the tournament this round. If there is a tie for lowest scores then total score in the tournament so far will be the deciding factor (see notes by matches).
