Notes from the organizer: We're up to round ten already which will be another of the "lock" formats and the first "hyper" one, played in Hyperlock against Apterous Waldorf. It's a step up with more numbers and higher targets than we've seen so far. Waldorf will pick 1 large number, and will be pretty ineffective for the most part.

Expected competitors: 50
Weakest Links required: 3
Historic average Hyperlock WL score: 145.27
