Re: CO:parkrun Recaps
I'm going to have to update the PB list again soon now that we're fully back in action. I noticed Tom S saying that he was intending to do a parkrun, and Philip A as well, and I don't think either are on the list at the moment. I've done about 10 Parkruns overall, but shall stay in the dark re my P...

Possibly, but I'm inclined to think that they had 2 contestants spare to put on after someone had octo'd.Rhys Benjamin wrote: ↑Wed Jul 21, 2021 6:32 pm Both, is my understanding.
Presumably that means they'll have to have 8 black contestants in a row to ensure that both contestants are black on that day?

Agreed with what Philip said but glad that Tom got another shot after what would typically have been a bit of a premature exit in his prelims for someone of his calibre. James was good today- with the exception of 2 or 3 rounds, I think he'd have given Luke a pretty close game with that performance.

On the wiki it says: NOTE: Despite having 732 points to Louis Ross's 738, Adam Latchford was seeded as #3 . This is probably as a result of Latchford's tie-break points from his first game being included in his overall total, which would bring his total to 742. This therefore places him above Ross ...

A shame Joey only got 2 wins really, as he is better than most of the players above him in the seeding table. Just the way the cookie crumbles at the end of the day. Would have taken a tough player to beat Ruth today, though I have a feeling she may have chickened the odd word in the letters, so we'...
