The question here is 'what was June issue doing aboard the flagship service LCY-JFK on 5th July?'

Well done you! Another hit recorded for 2015. Glad it is not only me that winds up playing with himself

You might want to add "www.flyertalk.com" alongside. Then any curious observers would be able to come here and join in!

I think you get extra points for spotting that I hadn't noticed.

(More recently I have been adding "www.flyertalk.com")

Ahhh, always in for a game. Will start scribbling. Was not aware of this. Although must confess I mostly fly SH, with occasional LH. Don't think I have ever seen anyone's writing on the magazine though, must pay more attention ��

I have not read the rules properly so I put my handle, date and flight number on the Highlife mag. Next time I'll add FT too.

It is the only modification to the USA rules, but I added the FT website as there are fewer FTers outside the USA. On the basis that whilst an FTer would recognise the significance of the username and flight details - a curious observer would find out about this site and forum too.

Shorter odds for me today

Just marked up the first sector of my two today. It always feels a waste on the last day of the month as the odds are pretty short on a hit!

Got the 767 shorthaul for the EDI-LHR sector, and in one of the same seats I had for two sectors last week on the same type so I thought my odds were pretty good. Alas not!

I'm still forgetting my pen and too lazy to retrieve from my overstuffed laptop bag on a short haul! Ive been taking a good look in row 1, no hits so far! Must remember on the a380 next weekend...

Been on here for a number of years and never heard of this game. Will start playing though.

Mods may I suggest this is added to the dashboard- it would hopefully remind regulars and allow newbies/lurkers to join in. The issue seems to be that the thread gets buried very quickly hence lack of coverage.

It's difficult to find it when everybody is too lazy to retrieve their pen, taking a look does not help much

We need to provide regular updates to keep it up... and more importantly leave the trail
