Notes from the organizer: We've reached round 15 in this year's adventure and it's time for the first meeting this year with Rex, here in a Hyper format game. Hyper has a more generous 45 second round limit, which will hopefully give you a good chance to take on Rex's favourite 4 large selection. You'll obviously only score if you can max rounds here.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 32
Weakest Links required: 4
Historic WL Hyper average score: 151.10
Previous WL Hyper max games: 10
Highest average score (this year's entrants): 185 - Matthew Brockwell (2 games)
Highest scoring Weakest Links: 120 - Neil Collins & Steven Grady (2023), Dave Kempshall & Arthur P (2022)
Previous Hyper rounds vs this bot: 2023 Round 13 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=5272 )
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 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).
