@weeman27bob is it ok for us to reveal our hidden objective after making 11th pick? Or wait for everyone to complete their XIs?

I thought we tried to guess other people's objectives. I've got no idea tbh.

 

[Teuton]

i think we should all guess other teams

edit: looking at all the teams so far, I wouldn't expect a high strike rate though.

 

[weeman27bob]

Yeah, I think it would be fun to have a day or so where everyone posts their team and people try to guess what the hidden objectives were.

@Red_Ink_Squid has been PMing me some guesses throughout and has correctly guessed way more than I thought anyone would.

That Squiddie, always has one tentacle on the pulse of everything.

I've forgotten what my team looks like lol.

I'll take Ian Healy.

Feel like mine is one of the more obvious ones but then it’s always easier when you know the answer

Is it just, debuted after previous pick?
