Unofficial Academy Awards Discussion Board

Any chance?

I'm not free, but getting there.

Wes / Magilla,

Are you guys free now to carry on with the last three years in this game?

Wesley is busy compiling the OFTA TV awards results. I'm sure he'll be back soon. I need time myself - my belongings weren't delivered until a week ago last Monday and I'm still unpacking and deciding where to put things while dealing with all the other incidentals in moving to a new house in a different state. We'll get there.

I propose leaving 1927 for the end because otherwise this game will never end.

And let's move to the next year which is... 200_?

According to Wes the year 1927 is not part of this game. So we are left with the 3 recent years. Who decides on the next year as Wes never even comes to this forum anymore?
