Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier Two-time champion Bradley gets only the 2nd ever Speed max game in Weakest Link to be this round's Strongest Link, whilst Sam C. regains the position of top cumulative points scorer.

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier Two-time champion Edward's reign looked like it could be coming to an end until the final game of the round saw him saved by Mich. Jon was unlucky to finish just 2 points behind Edward, particularly with R20 of his game having a 1-away max when he needed the 10 points to survive. This means that Jon, Mich and Robin you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye!

Elizabeth Beer

Elizabeth Beer Lucky af 😂

Jon Elmer

Jon Elmer Well, that was disappointing. Seems I'm just not very good at speed rounds as my practises were even worse! gl to all still remaining.

Tal Lessner

Tal Lessner You shouldn't be too disappointed Jon. Until this year, scoring above 140 would easily advance you. So this is quite unlucky to be out with a 145.

Notes from the organizer: It's time to pick up the pace now as round ten will be a Speed Numbers Attack against Apterous Caesar. Caesar is pretty useless here under the 10 second time control and likes to pick 2 large numbers.

Weakest Links required: 3
Most WL Speed max games: 1 - Chris Butler
Most Strongest Links: 2 - Elliott Mellor

Key. Green: winner. Red: loser. Bold: max game. A struck-out individual score is an excluded performance.
