Martin Long Hyper Nasty at this stage?! Tassier has gone sadistic. ;)

Tim Down

Tim Down Having to try pretty hard to stick to my no-practice rule on this one.

Adam Dexter

Adam Dexter Ouch my errors seemed to compound in this one. Feel this is where I will lie down for the eternal rest. Thanks for hosting Matthew - has been great fun.

Gevin Chapwell

Gevin Chapwell That's it then. Good night. I got 140 and 142 in my practice game as well. And then this happened.

Jim B

Jim B Well that was a total disaster. I'd forgotten how horrible this format is.

Alan O'Sullivan

Alan O'Sullivan Just got 77. (insert many cry emoji's here). I scraped through way more rounds than I ever could have hoped for. Thank you Matthew for organising such an amazing tournament and the best of luck to everyone else who made it through. Alan

Eoin Jackson

Eoin Jackson 77 is a wonderful score to go out on. I am well jealous.

Neil Collins

Neil Collins Pretty much a copy and paste of what Alan said :D The number of times I ended up a multiple of 10 out even before a half-assed fudge was borderline amusing. GL everyone left in

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier About time we had a Bradley Strongest Link game, achieved here by being the only player managing to score in every round of one of the most difficult formats.

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier With Adam, Jim and Jon possibly surprised to just sneak through, Gevin just misses out, falling short this year of his usual place in the top 10. It's the end of strong showings from Hazel and Neil, and Alan's rollercoaster ride also finishes here. Gevin, Hazel, Alan and Neil you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye!

Gevin Chapwell

Gevin Chapwell Thanks Matthew for running this again. I actually got closer to surviving than I thought after that awful game but it wasn't quite enough. Good luck to the rest!

Hazel Drury

Hazel Drury Thanks, Matthew for organising! Really enjoyed this tourney :)

Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2021: Round 17 - Hypernasty

<< Round 16 - Speed | Round 18 - Omelette >>

Notes from the organizer: Round 17 this year is the earlier than usual appearance of the Hyper Nasty format where you will take on Apterous Prune. The large numbers range from the useless to the unwieldy providing a real test of calculation and focus. Fortunately Prune won't get in your way.

Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors : 28
Weakest Links required : 4
Historic average Hypernasty WL score : 147.818
Highest Hypernasty WL score : 190 - Elliott Mellor (2020)
Highest average Hypernasty WL score : 166 - Elliott Mellor
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).
