Sam Shepherd To be fair, last year it was down to the top five players when bullet hyper appeared, so a very high Weakest Link score was to be expected

Tourney round: Weakest Link Numbers Tournament 2025: Round 18 - Bullet Hyper

<< Round 17 - Octorock

Notes from the organizer: Round eighteen will see this year's top 20 players take on Apterous Waldorf in a Bullet game in Hyper format. Waldorf will choose just 1 large number which can be awkward (particularly now you've only got 3 seconds!), and he has a personal Bullet Hyper Numbers PB of just 31 points.

Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 20
Weakest Links required: 3
Historic average score: 148.31
Highest Bullet Hyper WL score: 200 - Sam Cappleman-Lynes, Rahul Suresh
Most Bullet Hyper points scored: 1410 - Tom Cappleman
Highest scoring Weakest Link: 160 - Elliott Mellor (2024)
Previous rounds vs this bot: 2021 Round 21 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=3869 )
For more stats see spreadsheet linked below.

THREE 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).
