![]() | Florence C-L I thought 122 was a safe score given the previous highest scoring weakest link, but now I'm not too sure... |
![]() | Chris Hare That unpleasant graunching noise is me somehow scraping through again. |
![]() | Matthew Tassier This round's Strongest Link is Tom C., just pipping Elizabeth and Elliott, who in turn overtakes Tom for most points at this stage of a WL Numbers tournament. |
![]() | Matthew Tassier Finally Florence's score was just enough to go through as the final player Tom C. didn't have enough points available in the last couple of rounds to pip her. 3 of the bottom 4 did end up easily beating the previous highest score for a Weakest Link and just outside the top 20 we lose two new players and two players achieving their highest WL Numbers placing. So, Tom, Ian, Matt and Wesley you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye! |
