I wasn't positive, I knew it was either 1980 or 1984, and was going to go with a 5, but mnowax pushed me to be bold Revenge most foul!

Good thing he did!

Maybe the GL version should be 2x one year, 3x two years and 2x three year brackets. And 1x fifty year bracket!

Considering that Scurra's original message had it down to about a four months, I think the three year range you have will be fine Felicitous

Oh right, I am giving away secrets again Melancholy

Score Board

Operation Desert Storm begins....1991

It's still a dead heat, and it appears that again getting the 1 and 2 out of the way early is the key to winning, as team 3M is poised to take it if they can get this next question.

Round 8
Maclom X Assassinated

good game you guys! Considering you brought a bazooka (Scurra) to a knife fight, we didn't do too bad.


As for this game I for one believe Andy Warhol ended this game for us.

Yeah, it was a good fight, but once you fall behind and you've just big windows left, it's really hard to come back.
