Matthew Tassier Martin L. and Tom both managed to match Rex in all bar one round to stay within 1 point of each other on total points, with Tom picking up his 3rd Strongest Link accolade of the tournament.

Matthew Tassier Some strong highlights from all of our eliminees here. Patrick dodged a couple of bullets to get this far on his debut, Elizabeth and Mich both got further through the tournament that they have in previous years and Anthony has had his best tournament since 2016. But, Mich, Anthony, Elizabeth and Patrick you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye!

Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2021: Round 15 - Lockdown

<< Round 14 - Duckdown | Round 16 - Speed >>

Notes from the organizer: I'm adding this round early, as updates may be more sporadic over the next few days.
It's time to return to Lockdown in round fifteen for Rex's first appearance this year. Remember to always use the highlighted red number in your solution, whether directly or in a dead end before you reach the target. Rex will challenge you with his 4 large picks and play a perfect game, of course.

Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors : 36
Weakest Links required : 4
Historic average Lockdown WL score : 168.675
Previous Lockdown max games : 6
Highest average Lockdown score (3+ games) : 189.8 - Tom Cappleman (5 games)
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).
