Duplicate picks are not allowed in this little game, e.g. Jackie Stallone and Prince Philip are both in my team this round. And I guess that Vera Lynn is born in 1917, not 1920.

Course you can, you can't pick anyone who has been picked already for each round. New round starts when a QO has been posted in the thread. Deaf, are you?

YoungWillz 19,016 Posted April 9, 2020 Pretty sure Angela Lansbury is my pick, Book has Budge Patty iirc and I'd be amazed if nobody had Stirling Moss. Anyhow, what I'd suggest to Yvonne is to wait for the next round and then pounce with a selection, causing utter chaos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 11,001 Posted April 12, 2020 @Yvonne Vera Lynn was born in 1917, not 1920. Hector Duff was born in 1919, not 1920. You also don't need to provide names for 1930. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Book 3,343 Posted April 12, 2020 Ok, the last hit that counted was Javier Perez de Cuellar on March 5th. After that hit every player who wants to play within the next round (which runs up to the next hit) has the oppurtunity to send in his team. This team can be the same as last round or maybe a new one or maybe some picks are changed or snatched from other players. A hit means, that this person was within a team of current players. Current players are Bibliogryphon, YoungWillz, Death Impends and me. Others come and go, everyone is welcome! So join us, but please send in a correct team: A pick can't be used twice in one round (e.g. I have Pierre Cardin and you also picked him, but I sent my team first, so you can't pick him) and has to be the right year of birth (e.g. Vera Lynn was not born in 1920). Also, this game is called 20/20 which contains the years 1920 to 1929. Not 1930. Everything's clear now? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
