Notes from the organizer: Round 22 and there are just 7 players left to take on Apterous Plum in a Hypertouch format game. Plum likes to choose 8 small numbers which should provide some very difficult rounds and he will solve some of them, but may leave an opportunity to score with non-exact solutions. Being a Touch variant there is potential for some odd looking selections.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 7
Weakest Links required: 2
Opponent's Hypertouch PB: 110
Most Hypertouch WL max games: 2 - Chris Butler
Highest Hypertouch WL average score (3+ games): 179.38 - Chris Butler (8 games)
Highest scoring Hypertouch Weakest Link: 150 - Tom Cappleman (2021), Gevin Chapwell (2019)
For more stats see spreadsheet linked below.
TWO 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).
