Confused at the different colours of text. Is there any reason for it?

Red means it's a unique, I'm pretty sure

[Bibliogryphon 9,653]

The Russ is right

 

Reds are uniques and in this game uniques are very important

[Bibliogryphon 9,653]

Footballers are up

 

Lets see how many fall down

Nobel Prize Winners have been assembled

 

Some serious doubling up here.

 

Several players without a unique in this category

First error has popped up in Nobel Prize Winners @Bibliogryphon - I think Chilean Way has 6 picks and Dying Probably only 4, is one a typo?

 

Sorry, first two categories were bang on!

Well, I didn't picked Mairead Corrigan, maybe Dying Probably was who picked her

Yes I just assigned the wrong player. Edited now.

Thanks for your eagle eyed attention to detail.

Three categories up, and only one unique , albeit a surprising Gianluca Vialli. Not a good start for my chances of winning this with unique picks. Considering that my "Random Yugoslav from 1950" pick didn't manage to be unique, I wouldn't be confident of getting two more from the remaining two categories.

 

Just have to hope that no-one else has heard that Olivia Newton-John has cancer

Same here, and I don't hold out any great hopes of getting any more.

I love the throwback of Spade picking Alice Munro.

Basically, I decided to go for the "get one in each category" ploy. Unfortunately so did a lot of other people, negating it as a tactic. This will be won by a three uniques player.

[RoverAndOut 4,756]

If it makes people feel better, I'm pretty sure I've failed to get 3 unique picks in total on either of the first two games and still have a win to my name! This game is really unpredictable.

 

In other news, if the turmoil continues have we all missed a potential success in the Nobel winners..?

Genuinely never questioned that when I was looking at them all, just assumed he was Hungarian...

hit for me and @YorkshireBanker

[Bibliogryphon 9,653]

Well this is awkward. I haven't finished getting the teams on the field of play and Dame Diana Rigg ups and leaves. 

 

Congrats to @chilean way & @YorkshireBanker

 

Not a unique so still four away from victory but points on the board.

 

I have updated the scoreboard on the first page.

If either of these teams win, I'm going to claim the contest Rigged from the start.

Space fliers have gone into orbit

Smallest group so far but there are still plenty of uniques but not for everybody

Gerald Carr died before the starting line, so Dying Probably needs to replace him

@Dying Probably

 

Yes I missed this one

 

You did not submit a substitute so any replacement you pick cannot be one that would deny another player a unique so you can pick one of the ones in the list in black or another name.

 

You have until I have completed the last list plus two weeks to provide me with a name or I will assign one to you

The Old Lady only appears to have 4 picks? Everything else checks out, aside from the Gerald Carr issue.
