    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    Wikipedia has Eusebio Pedroza as dead and there are Spanish sites that seem to be in agreement so I am going to congratulate @YorkshireBanker on his second unique.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    My reputation in this game is awesome. I am now in the second round for the second time but I have yet to have a hit. I do not think my teams are bad though I do avoid FFBI types. Thanks @Master Tech for your gracious comments and good luck next year. Though I do hope you might consider a team for Scavenger Hunt Bingo III which inches ever nearer.

    Indeed @Grim Up North and @FujimoriNoMorey get their second Grammy hit but it is @time who gets a first hit in the category but that means he is only a boxer away from victory.

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Anne Tyler wrote The Accidental Tourist. Has suggested that she may not write more books. She would certainly be a pick in some games if not on the main DL.

    The 2nd Death of 2019

    Who are you kidding? Easter might be here before the next hit.

    The EU Referendum Hokey Cokey

    MPs are putting an awful lot of trust in someone who has shown she can change her mind if the wind is not blowing in her direction. This was just to prevent the Cooper/Boles/Letwin ammendment from being put forward. No-one is happy

    Christopher Tolkien

    Still doesn't absolve him of plundering his Father's unfinished works. there are probably a couple of shopping lists lying around that he could expand to a 300 page book.

    Christopher Tolkien

    Some others might think differently about Christopher's management of his Father's legacy. The Jackson films are visually stunning but conceited and far too short (LOTR) or too long (The Hobbit). In addition the publication of all his Father's notes and unfinished stories is dubious at best. Does he have any involvement in the new biopic or Amazon TV series?

    Wiki page back to normal. Looks like a hoax.

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    It is far from my place to cast any doubt on such a worthwhile bastion of journalism. Morgan Woodward is dead. A hit for eight players in the Dallas category (most popular pick in the category) @FixedBusiness gets his first hit. Everyone is now off the mark. @time & @Grim Up North are up to three hits in three categories @Toast @Sir Creep & @msc get third hit, second in Dallas @gcreptile second hit in Dallas @Death Impends Fifth hit, third in Dallas first player to have three hit in the same category This game is my favourite of the ones I run. Noone else moves into a winning position but will these hits be important if the game drags on.
