It's thanks to @MariNisia that I got a hit because I stole all of her players one time. Few days later there was a hit, lol.

 

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.

Cancer is a handy thing to beat. Cheers to good health and trying to beat you in 20/20+4.

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
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)
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)
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.

@Bibliogryphon the Residual 20/20 game thanks to our picks Arnold Yarrow and Loretta Ford. For reference, the first pick to go in that pool was George Shultz, almost 3 years ago :D

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.

Not that it really matters now the game has started and he wasn't picked, but Kaminskas has been dead for over five years (5th November 2018) according to a source on his German wiki page.
