 | Gevin Chapwell Apparently the highest scoring weakest links in hyper have scored 120. Should be fine then... |
 | Trevor MacEoin Looks like there will be a new highest scoring weakest link :( |
| Gevin Chapwell And it might be a whole load of us on the same score. |
 | Matthew Tassier We've never had 4 max games in a round this far into the tournament before, but 4 of the big hitters combined to make it happen here, led by Strongest Link Tal. |

| Matthew Tassier They say that records are made to be broken, and a high quality round sees three unfortunate players up the highest scoring Hyper WL record to 130 points, and our 4th departee finish just behind on a perfectly respectable 120. But, Gevin, Martin T., Trevor and Ay Oh you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye! |
| Trevor MacEoin Thanks for a fun tournament Matthew. |
 | Ay Oh Ess Thank you Matt. Excellent tournament as always. |
 | Tal Lessner Winning Strongest Link makes one immune from elimination the following round, right? |
| Gevin Chapwell Thanks again for a great tournament Matthew. I knew after my game that I could be in trouble but this was a very competitive round anyway. No-one scored 140 so I would have needed 150 and even then on a tie-break. So some people would have needed 160 to go through!

Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2025: Round 15 - Hyper
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).
