None have any kind of months to live type cancer at the moment, but enough are in in their 80s or 90's that law of average should see one of them drop this year.

Picks were marked red when they were uniques but obviously when the second pick came in I didn't change him to black. However my word masterlist was corrected.

No, its mathematically impossible for Leicester City to win, whereas everyone in this game is still in with a chance, me & handy included. Although, I reckon if the bookies were offering odds you could get about 5000-1! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the beauty of the Scavenger Hunt bingo. On paper, Ali has a great chance: A doddery old lord, an ageing rocker with cancer, a couple of old entertainment stars ripe for a sudden heart attack, and two housewives' favourites who seem in fairly good health but who knows. But if I told you now they'd all live to see 2018, no one would bat an eyelid, which gives potentially at least 10 months for someone to sneak through (namely me...) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,157 Posted March 15, 2017 Highly unpredictable, but fascinating. A very good d/p as it is quite different from others, but not overly complicated. I shall definitely play again, if categories are within my means. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoverAndOut 4,746 Posted March 29, 2017 Funny how this works. I was just pondering the US Presidential picks and thought that if George HW Bush or Bob Dole went it would probably push someone over the top, but I see not. It would however create pandemonium. It would leave 6 people (myself included) needing a solitary hit to win (in a whole host of shapes and forms) while also giving Ali yet more potential outs. I look at my remaining 'needs' and can quite easily see an unsurprising path to victory before March is out. Equally, I might still be waiting at Christmas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
