Bibliogryphon 9,670 Posted February 10, 2020 Update for Orson Bean a hit in the Kevin Bacon category @captainchorizo Gets his third hit meaning he is no longer last but it is already in a category where he has a hit @youngWillz get his fourth hit - two in two categories. @toast gets her 5th hit leaving her two hits from victory @DeathImpends gets a sixth hit.

Toast 16,275 Posted February 10, 2020 So correct me if this is wrong. Several people are one hit away from the win. Biblio & Time each need a boxer. Yorkshire Banker and Death Impends each need a unique pick. Spade also only needs one more unique pick, but can also win with any of his Head of State picks.

Sir Creep 7,082 Posted February 10, 2020 The scoreboard is the favourite to win, seeing as Death Impends, Rover & Out, and Sir Creep have identical 0/0/3/2/1 scores but it’s only DI with 3 possible outs and otherwise nowt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
