Sorry, a missed hit for the DL but a hit for Book, Cant Wait, Clorox Bleachman, gcreptile, Joey Russ, msc, Prophet, RadGuy, The Old Crem, ThereWillBeDeaths7 and Vaagheid. So, the new leader has 10 hits now (DL = 8) and it's... me

Yes, both! Btw, I stopped watching after 2 episodes, couldn't stand it anymore, trash at its worst! Not to mention the poor animals! Sick sad world!

Former magician Roy Horn tested positive for coronavirus and is responding well to treatment the article says. Nevertheless he has many other diseases and health issues, so... https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/pop-culture-news/roy-horn-siegfried-roy-tests-positive-coronavirus-n1194856

Michael Robinson, a hit for me and maybe others. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/52455424

Happy Birthday to you, Joey!!! All the best!!

Oh, it's even Björns 75th birthday today!

Maybe I should think about it again, haha! Translation: 1 - And what about you in Cologne? - On my balcony, roasting my nuts in the sun, listening to ABBA! Pleasant for the nerves! 2 - Yeah, sun! Now that it's just April! And once more no rain! The Summer is frightening me more than the virus .. - By the way, what about the two new ABBA songs they had promised? - What? 3 - No one's talking about that anymore! A new album by ABBA right now, this would keep humanity sweet! - Probably there'd be peace in Palestine! 4 - Right, as long as we've got fresh water for our diswasher, the only thing missing are two new songs by Abba! Sagat, stop it! - Somebody should talk to Björn! -Absolutely

An exception!

German politician and former minister of labor and social affairs Norbert Blüm has died: https://www.zeit.de/politik/deutschland/2020-04/frueherer-arbeitsminister-norbert-bluem-gestorben He was 84 and since 2019, he was paralyzed due to blood poisoning on the arms and legs and was in a wheelchair.

One hit after all! Believe it or not but once I considered Bob Glanzer, Hassan Hussein, John Pine, Christophe and Abba Kyari taken up in my April-Cup-team. But then I found much better picks, which seemed to be in more critical conditions, and I chose them instead. I don't have to say more. Congratulations, Jiroemon!

Prince Philip, on his wife's birthday.

Ok, the last hit that counted was Javier Perez de Cuellar on March 5th. After that hit every player who wants to play within the next round (which runs up to the next hit) has the oppurtunity to send in his team. This team can be the same as last round or maybe a new one or maybe some picks are changed or snatched from other players. A hit means, that this person was within a team of current players. Current players are Bibliogryphon, YoungWillz, Death Impends and me. Others come and go, everyone is welcome! So join us, but please send in a correct team: A pick can't be used twice in one round (e.g. I have Pierre Cardin and you also picked him, but I sent my team first, so you can't pick him) and has to be the right year of birth (e.g. Vera Lynn was not born in 1920). Also, this game is called 20/20 which contains the years 1920 to 1929. Not 1930. Everything's clear now?

No, sorry. Please read the rules.

Happy Stirling Moss-Easter-points for the Committee as well as for Bibliogryphon, Book, Cant Wait, CaptainChorizo, Clorox Bleachman, Etushispushingupdaisies, gcreptile, Great Uncle Bulgaria, Joey Russ, msc, nantonian2013, Prophet, RadGuy, Sean, The Mad Hatter, theoldlady, ThereWillBeDeaths7, TomTomTelekom and YoungWillz! German double peak for TomTomTelekom and me, haha!!

@Yvonne If your team had been correct, you would have received a point now for Stirling Moss. You may want to revise your team again.

Get well soon, GUN!

Yes, no problem. Duplicate picks are not allowed in this little game, e.g. Jackie Stallone and Prince Philip are both in my team this round. And I guess that Vera Lynn is born in 1917, not 1920.

Yes, but he left us all alone and didn't show up for ages. So we took over! And yeah, I only will take part up to the end of the year. But maybe other players will stay - so welcome @Yvonne

Honor Blackman is a hit for the Committee as well as for Book, BuffaloPhil, CaptainChorizo, Clorox Bleachman,, msc, Etushispushingupdaisies, Deathray, gcreptile, Great Uncle Bulgaria, nantonian2013, Prophet, RadGuy, The Old Crem, ThereWillBeDeaths7, TomTomTelekom and Vaagheid. If I'm right, it will be tight at the top... 8 hits for The Mad Hatter, TomTomTelekom, Vaagheid and myself.

I can't believe that 7 people from this years DL went before Prince Philip...
