 | Gevin Chapwell Pretty sure Apterous was conspiring against me there. |
 | Chris Butler I've recently started using a mac. Does anyone know the shortcuts for moving +/- from the target? It's costing me points left, right and centre, thanks! |
 | Perry Sarb I normally just use the arrow keys, if that helps you any |
 | Thomas Carey yeah control up/down (and crtl+space for exact target). i don't think i've typed a target in years |
| Chris Butler control+space works for target but not control up/down (those shortcuts already exist for window minimising/maximising). Maybe it depends on the mac model (I'm using a MacBook Air from 2020) |

| Chris Butler UPDATE: I kept on messing around and found them.

 | Jason C. Literally eliminated in the 25th hour of the last day. Well done everyone, and good luck. |
 | Matthew Tassier Only Prime could max this one, but George's first 19-max Touchdown game earns him his first ever Strongest Link title. |
| Matthew Tassier As competition continues to hot up I make it 9 players who were within 10 points of the elimination line, as well as a few close to timing out. But 4 players have to be eliminated so, Jason C., Matty, Mike and Martin T. you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye! |
 | George Armstrong Well that's going on my CV... :D |
Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2021: Round 13 - Touchdown
Notes from the organizer: Round thirteen will be played in Touchdown format against Apterous Prime. Prime scores very heavily and likes 3 large numbers, which can be particularly awkward/interesting in this variant if one of the larges is repeated.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors : 44
Weakest Links required : 4
Previous Touchdown WL max games : 4
Highest Touchdown WL score : 197 - Sam Cappleman-Lynes, Edward Ashcroft, Rahul Suresh, Vincent Barcet
Previous rounds v this bot : 2017 Round 13 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=1888 )
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 margin of victory/defeat will be taken into account amongst tied players followed, if necessary, by total score in the tournament so far (see notes by matches).
