arghton 6,695 Posted August 30, 2020 This one is a small game and an experiment. To join you've got to pick six names, the only requirements are that they are over 18, somewhat known (don't have to be celebrities, it's good enough if there's information about their achievements on the internet. A wikipedia page could be good too) and two of them have to be under 100. You can join whenever you want and your 6-month countdown starts after you've posted your name list. Whoever gets all six first wins. You can rejoin with a new list if it's been six months since your last list 1. Kane Tanaka, world's oldest person, 117 2. Fauja Singh, runner, 109 3. Roberta McCain, McCain matriarch, 108 4. Loftollah Golpaygani, grand ayatollah, 101 5. Alex Trebek, tv host, 80 6.
