 | George Ford Matthew I’m wondering if you know what the lowest available max has been in Bullet rounds in your tourney? Pure curiosity! |

 | Matthew Tassier In terms of specifically in WL Numbers, I'm not sure, I don't keep a record of the available maxes. However there was a 181 one year when Plum was the bot.

| George Ford Thanks both :) |
Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2025: Round 9 - Bullet
Notes from the organizer: Time to speed things up now, with round 9 being a Bullet Numbers Attack against Apterous Prune. Prune hasn't solved a Bullet numbers round in 16 years, so he's not the problem here. With only 3 seconds per round, be ready to either click on the target number or hit CTRL+SPACE to declare the exact target. There's just enough time for a well judged declaration away from the exact target too if you are efficiently using the CTRL+ and CTRL- shortcuts. I'd recommend a practice game if you need to try this out.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 56
Weakest Links required: 4
Highest score: 200 - Chris Hare, Tom Cappleman, Elliott Mellor, Zarte Siempre
Highest average score (3+ games): 180.67 - Jack Worsley (3 games)
Most Bullet Weakest Links: 2 - Dan Byrom, Jamie French, Tal Lessner, Alex Williamson
Lowest scoring survivors: 130 - Ben H, Chris Butler, Sam Shepherd (2020), Thomas Carey (2016)
For more stats see spreadsheet linked below.
FOUR lowest scoring Weakest Links will be leaving the tournament this round. If there is a tie for lowest scores then those players will be split by total score in the tournament so far (see notes by matches).
