OK, so I have been in this game since it started. Currently 171st place and 1048 points. Now I have not really paid much attention to it, but I will from now on. My weekend long run i outside the range, but that cant be helped as I need hills and there are none near me.....but the rest of the week, ill be playing! Ill start recording my walks too.....So ArrToo if you see this, your 5 week winning streak may come to a end.......or maybe not!  Look forward to playing with you all.......Hoping to make the top 128...

Welcome, MAG! Enjoy the game!
I think you're probably too late to make the top 128 for the next multiplayer series, as it starts on Monday, but you can get a few weeks of practice in so that you're ready for the following one which will be seven weeks later. Good luck!

Yeah, i am on 1048 as well and if I win the week I reckoned I would need about 10-12 people to be on a break if I was to make the top 128.
Really annoyed as I joined just after midday on a Monday and so missed a weeks competition.

Bazoaxe - I think (but am not 100% sure) that there may be a one-week lag/offset in determining the 128 players who go into a new multiplayer series.
It's your current ranking that determines whether you get in, not your new ranking at noon on the day multiplayer starts. In other words, you need to be in the top 128 (subject of course to numbers on a break etc) the Monday before the start date.
(There are also one or two other factors, such as the ability to leapfrog magically past inactive players in the top 128 if they are not "engaged" with the game and you are, but that's all part of a mysterious selection algorithm that only Mr Fetch understands.)

The new 128 are calculated before the current week's matches are finished, so if you're winning this week, it's not taken into account.

Yeah. It’s not going to be possible for me to be in the next multiplayer even if I win this week. If I win then I get to 1060 points which is currently joint 137th with 30 other people. Not sure how fetch would rank those 30 if 9 of the top 128 were inactive.
Just need to make sure I am there in seven weeks time.

So I need one more person to take a break to get into the new multiplay?
