I'm a lucky person... I love playing with great people like you and constantly learning. It's the best thing I've ever done, besides beat cancer. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Summer in Transylvania 2,187 Posted January 7 Blimey, is it really this time of year again? As promised, here is the 20/20+3 Residual, which I thank Bibliogryphon for letting me organise for a second year. In this subgame, you are looking for who will survive the longest of all of the surviving 1923-designated picks throughout the game (sans the now-deceased Glynis Johns), here is a list of those picks: Viginia Halas McCaskey (LadyFiona's Pick) Vic Seixas DEAD 5th July 2024. Gloria Whelan (Bibliogryphon's Pick) Roedad Khan DEAD 21st April 2024. Rudolph Marcus (Steve's Pick) Ida Vitale (MariNisia's Pick) Yuriko, Princess Mikasa (Azrael's Pick) DEAD 15th November 2024. Ruth Stiles Gannett Louis Danziger Helma Kissner Francis Graham-Smith Edith Fischhof Gilboa Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat (Yvonne's Pick) Jack Burke. DEAD 19th January 2024. Vincent Ball (Grimgrass' Pick) Mary Morello Lily Ebert David H. Murdock Barbara Wallace VOID as she was actually born in 1935. Gertrude Ehrlich Vija Vētra James Ross MacDonald DEAD 30th March 2024. Betty Webb Victor A. Lundy Kari Polanyi Levitt Judith Hemmedinger (WEP's Pick) Olav Thon (Tracy's Pick) DEAD 16th November 2024. Paola Del Din Socorro Ramos (Diego's Pick) Franklin B. Zimmerman V. S. Achuthanadan Márta Peterdy-Wolf (Hell's Pick) DEAD 16th April 2024. Julie Mandel (ThereWillBeDeaths7's Pick) Tom Hughes (Summer in Transylvania's Pick) Leopoldas Kaminskas DEAD 5th November 2018. As is customary, the winner of the 20/20+3 pool (@MariNisia again) will be allowed the first pick, after which it is a free for all. Picks will be eligible for selection up until all names have been taken or the first of the list dies, whichever comes first. The picks will then be locked in and the game can dwindle to its natural conclusion. The Residual 20/20, 20/20+1, and 20/20+2 games are still ongoing. It is important to note that one does not need to have partaken in the 20/20+2 pool to enter the residual. This post will be edited to reflect the entries as they are made known. Good Luck. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThereWillBeDeaths7 722 Posted January 11 This is already the most popular of the Residual games, with 13 players at the moment. Great to see many people playing for the first, second, third as well as fourth time. The large amount of players may however mean it'll take some years before we have a winner. 20/20 Residual: 2/9 selections still alive 20/20 +1 Residual: 4/7 20/20 +2 Residual: 7/11 20/20 +3 Residual: 13/13 (entry still possible) Additionally, all Residual games have unpicked candidates who are still alive - they are not listed above. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
