Bibliogryphon 9,493 Posted November 25, 2022 SCAVENGER HUNT BINGO DEADPOOL RULES Each player picks five selections (and one sub) in each of five categories (for categories see below). There are three ways to win 1. You get at least one hit in each of the five categories 2. You get all five hits in one category 3. You get three unique hits across the whole game. There is no fixed duration you play until there is a winner. In the event of a tie the total number of hits across all categories and after that the number of unique hits. Obits will not be stringent but must be in English and from a News source (not social media). The Game Controller will be checking that picks meet the category criteria at the start of the game but challenges will be accepted during the first two weeks after the full list of entries are published on the forum. In order to ensure that there are no issues with selected names that have died prior to the game beginning each team will need a substitute in each categories. This will come into play if the death of a pick was found to be before the start of the game. Once the game has began a substitute will not invalidate a unique pick but will not count as a unique pick for the player whose substitute it was. A unique pick is considered unique in category. For example if two categories were Conservative MPs and Contestants on Strictly Come Dancing/Dancing with the Stars and three players picked Edwina Curry in the first category and the fourth player picked her in the second category. If she eggspired then Player 4 would get a unique bonus. When a winner is declared the selection of the next categories passes to the victor and they get to select the new categories. The Categories for the fifth game are: 1. Anyone who has appeared (credited) in an episode of Coronation Street (1960-present) 2. Anyone who has win a competitive Brit Award (1977-present) (Popular music only classical Brit awards do not count in this game) 3. Anyone nominated for an acting Oscar (Best actor/actress or Best Supporting actor/actress) 4. Anyone who has started a Formula One World Championship Grand Prix (1950-present) 5. Anybody who has appeared on Time's annual 100 Most Influential People in the World list (2004-present) Teams must be PM’d to avoid revealing those unique picks. There will be a two week period after the lists are published for disputes to be settled people whose picks are removed at this point will be allowed replacements but will not be allowed to select another person's unique pick.

Bibliogryphon 9,493 Posted November 25, 2022 Film, TV, Music, Sport and Public Life All boxes ticked. I thought the Brit awards would be just up your street Glad the eagle eyes for mistakes are out this early 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 20,890 Posted November 25, 2022 OK, just for clarification: Brit Awards - I assume this does not include the Classic and Crossover Brits. Also, individual members of a group who won are allowed, or is it only for individual winners? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,459 Posted November 25, 2022 Can we get a clarification on what counts as being "nominated" for a competitive Brit? Do session musicians credited on tracks count or just the "permanent" bandmembers? Do producers count for Best Album noms? And what about film soundtracks - any artist credited?

Commtech Sio Bibble 1,985 Posted November 25, 2022 Can I assume that this is the difference between a non-competitive and competitive award. Basically the competitive awards have nominations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,493 Posted November 25, 2022 I have cleared my message inbox so I will await the entries flooding in I have prepared my team but it is not one I expect to win as there are a lot of obvious picks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summer in Transylvania 2,130 Posted November 25, 2022 I might enter, though I doubt I will come anywhere close to winning. Nice tagline, by the way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,493 Posted November 25, 2022 I am going to be fairly strict on the Brits It will be Named artists and Permanent Band members for the album/period the award was won for Even best video should be assigned to artist (not director) Soundtrack albums only count if they are by a specific artist e.g The Eurythmics for 1984. Compilations will not count Producers do not count for an album (unless they are also the named artist) e.g someone like Calvin Harris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am thinking this is going to be a one of each or a five of one (Coronation Street). That delivers the win this time Who was it who was desperate for a Coronation Street category?

arghton 6,610 Posted November 25, 2022 Time 100 will be definitely the easiest category for me. Lots of potential picks (but I expect a certain few names to be on most teams...) The other categories, going to have to do a bit of research. Coronation Street, probably going to put a bit of research into finding who there is but I expect there's a lot of different possibilities in that one. Same for the oscars. For the Formula and Brit Awards category, no idea who I'm supposed to pick at all yet, but I guess I'll have to do a bit of research later 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuffaloPhil 902 Posted November 26, 2022 Definitely a bit of research needed on all these categories! Pete Doherty never won a Brit, did he? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
