## What is Standard 8 Surprise Major?

This app is designed to help you learn and practice the 'Standard 8' surprise major methods rung in full circle bell ringing.  The methods are: Cambridge, Yorkshire, Superlative, Lincolnshire, Pudsey, Rutland, London and Bristol.

The app randomly selects a method and a place bell and invites you to touch the appropriate place for the your bell in each row.  At the lead end another method and place bell are selected at random.  At the end of the game a results table is shown.

The game scroll speed adapts to how quickly you play.

If you want to learn the methods I'd suggest learning them one at a time!
