![]() | Luke S Hello Matthew, I received two challenges for round 6. I have played one game, but it hasn’t showed up as completed. |
Notes from the organizer: With Round Six it's time for the most familiar challenge, playing in Normal format against Apterous Velvet. Velvet will probably max at least half the rounds and likes to pick 2 large numbers.
Some stats for this round:
Expected competitors: 63
Weakest Links required: 3
Historic Normal average score: 166.37
Most Normal WL max games: 3 - Elliott Mellor
Highest score against this bot: 200 - Adam Latchford & Ben Hocking
Lowest scoring Normal survivor: 117 - Maria Chandler (2024)
Last time this bot used on this variant: 2025 - Round 4 ( https://www.apterous.org/to_tourney.php?tourney=6501 )
For more stats see spreadsheet linked below.
The THREE lowest scoring players will leave 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 below).
