Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted January 19, 2021 Wednesday 1517, legend has it that the priest and scholar Martin Luther approaches the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, and nails a piece of paper to it containing the 95 revolutionary opinions that would begin the Protestant Reformation. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

En Passant 3,742 Posted January 20, 2021 5 hours ago, Toast said: Is it bad to say this actually looks like fun now? Ha, that's only because they are all adding historic dates to the guesses. In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue and so on. When/if the latest lockdown/vaccine rollout brings the numbers back down to the low hundreds there's only so many references to Hengist and Horsa or such anyone can dredge up I'd imagine. Even wiki can't seem to list a single English Monarch prior to the 5th century Anything below 500 is probably struggling for an accurate date, 1500+ year old papyrus being hard to come by and all that.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 20, 2021 ^^^ Wednesday 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue. Team Wean was reading about the Age of Exploration for school, seems a reasonable number. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it's right to play this game to be honest but that said I wouldn't be surprised if it got past 2000 in the next few days. Also I predict that it will go above 100,000 deaths by next monday. Not many countries have achieved that ! (if achieved is the right word) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
