=========================================================================================
Season 20 Games List - Starting on March 6th, Monday 9 PM UK Time
=========================================================================================

There is a 3.7% chance of any game being picked initially. After that the odds increase with each game that's chosen.
There were 27 games selected for this round, nicely done folks.
Having said that, there is also a very good chance none of your games will get selected this season as only 10 do get selected. I've had that happen to me a few seasons, not a big deal.

Let's go out and have fun with whatever games are selected. As usual, I'll employ the 'blind man's' approached using a bowl with the games in it and holding it above my head when picking the game. It's not very high tech but it's a very good random generator.... :wink:

These are the nominations for Season 20.....and, on with the games.

Oh crap. Ed, I was joking about those! Too much of a good thing and all 😉
Ransack could be OK but Caveman Capers was my only serious suggestion!

Ah sorry CyberShark, didn't see you're joking comment. It's been very busy for me this weekend so was hurrying through the set up of this on the weekend.

What I can do is if I pick one of yours I can put in Caveman Capers then and hopefully only the one will get picked. I think I remember Ransack from before and think it was fine too.

Yeah, Ransack is actually one that I'd like to play on HSC at some point - but hopefully after a few other game authors have had a turn in the spotlight, eh? :lol:

Network was also a very nice (budget) game, which I mapped and completed (back in the day). It's prettymuch another Last of The Free, but there's no confusing mystery items to use, just a couple of keys to find iirc :)
