Sean 6,337 Posted July 9, 2016 Seeing as my 20/20 has hit off in the last couple of weeks I thought it was a shame that it will inevitably end fairly soon so to compensate for that I am proposing another one that should last a few years.For this one a national or international BBC article of the deceased is required.Pick 50 names born in the 1950`s.Unlike 20/20 there is not a quota on years of birth and gender.Any 50 from any year of the fifties.when a hit occurs a new pool is triggered and picks cannot be duplicated but unique points will score 2 points per hit as opposed to one for a multiple pick for every player who selected them.This pool may start out slow but I reckon it should pick up pace in the coming months and years.Rest assured I won`t be starting any other pools on this site! 1)Tim Healy 2)Sir Eric Pickles 3)Malcolm Young 4)John McDonnell 5)Val Kilmer 6)Victoria Principal 7)Robbie Coltrane 8)Derek Acorah 9)Ian McNeice 10)Sir Tony Baldry 11)Lorraine Chase 12)Paul O`Grady 13)Kenny Sansom 14)Shane MacGowan 15)Dale Winton 16)Alex Salmond 17)Harriet Harman 18)Diane Abbott 19)John Travolta 20)Les Dennis 21)Bruce Jones 22)Helen Worth 23)Annette Badland 24)Princess Anne 25)Timothy Lawrence 26)Mike Gapes 27)Cheryl Gillan 28)Angela Merkel 29)Theresa May 30)Timothy Spall 31)Jennifer Saunders 32)Paul Merton 33)Stephen Fry 34)Dawn French 35)James Fleet 36)Amanda Redman 37)Francois Hollande 38)Martin Schulz 39)Jean Claude Juncker 40)Justin Welby 41)Gwyneth Strong 42)Ruby Wax 43)Sharon Osbourne 44)Sue Barker 45)Adrian Edmondson 46)Tony Blair 47)Cherie Blair 48)Gordon Brown 49)Peter Mandelson 50)Alastair Campbell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,071 Posted July 10, 2016 So we are allowed to have names on other people's lists in this one? Or does each 50 have to have unique names to that player? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
