Bibliogryphon 9,588 Posted March 12, 2023 Congratulations @Summer in Transylvania who is now joint leader on 3 hits. However, I will remind players that the next round should not start until an English language obituary/news article appears. I am letting this one go as my wording in the rules was sloppy but this will be tightened up going forward. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
