 | Perry Sarb I think I wrote the rules a wee bit too vague here, so let me clean it up just in case.
|
 | Florence C-L I think you've incorrectly set this up if you want the contenders to pick the numbers rounds. The gladiator should always be player 2? |
| Perry Sarb I think that's just a wee quirk of the website. For some reason it always moves the oldest user to Player 1. But if I have actually done this, then apologies, I'll sort it. |
 | Sam Cappleman-Lynes Yeah the tourney page always shows the user with the smaller user ID as player 1 on the tourney page, regardless of who is actually player 1 in the game |
Tourney round: Gladiators: Powerball
Notes from the organizer: This could have been Atlaspheres, but I just found Powerball to be more interesting. The Contenders faced off simultaneously, and had to place volleyballs in one of 5 buckets (4 outside ones and 1 middle one) to score points, while trying not to get rugby-tackled by three impending Gladiators. This was probably the most free-scoring event of them all, so I thought I’d reflect that by setting yous a Numberbash — 8 numbers rounds of your choice, plus a conundrum.
A 1–3 large solve will score you 1 point
A 6 small, 4 large, or conundrum solve will score 2 points
and beating the Gladiator in any numbers round will score 3 points.
But be warned: if the Gladiator wins a round, then it will score you 0 and void the next round (except for the last 2 rounds).
rrrrreadyyyyy!
