Numbers rounds in the duel

Post by Charlie Reams »

Gevin has complained about the shortage of numbers rounds in the duel. But then he complains about a lot of things, so what do you think? I will act on the results of this poll so it's worth voting if you play regularly.

Maybe you could have a daily numbers duel.

I voted "not enough" (surprise surprise) but I'm not too bothered either way, really. I'd prefer it if there were generally less conundrums, mind, those all-conundrum Duels especially do my head in.

When you have a duel that contains more than 1 numbers game, are you not able to change what the type of selection is for each round?

For example, the duel on the 11th October consisted of 8 number rounds, but they were all 2-large selections. Is it possible to have a mixture of the 5 different selections in a duel?

Currently no, but it wouldn't be that difficult to add if there was some demand for it.

Haha I actually voted "Eh whatever man". I couldn't care less. Actually numbers are easier than letters and it's letter practice that I enjoy and want - it's nice to see all those hours of practice paying off when finding an obscure 8 - there's no joy in solving 10 "1 large" numbers games.
