Dave Robjohns Ideally would like players to complete these games in one sitting but appreciate this might not be possible.

If you need to leave during it, please put "pausing long jump attempt at ___ rounds" in the main apto-chat, wait 40-50 seconds, then exit the room.

Makes it a lot easier for me to follow in the chat logs

Mike Lee

Mike Lee Dave - is there any reason why Stu has been given the same long jump punishment as every other Olympian???

Matthewโ€™s first jump is almost twice as far as anyone else manages to easily seal a first gold of the games. Sam takes the bronze with Sam S, Stephen and Tom within a dozen rounds of a medal too.

Tourney round: Aptolympics: Paris 2024: Event 38: Long Jump (Round 1)

Notes from the organizer: We're back in the Stade de France, and it's time for long jump.

You will be playing vs Apterous Soap at Nice NAs, aiming to go on level with Soap for as long as you can. Remember, in Nice NAs, the target is ALWAYS possible, so you should always declare the target and try to fudge if you don't have it.

Each player gets three jumps in the first round, and the 8 longest jumpers will get another 3 attempts to improve their score.

In 2020, Sam C-L lasted 535 rounds for gold, while in 2021, I won gold after 304 rounds. It's a pretty gruelling one!
