I very nearly ended up playing with myself (steady! ) last month as I defaced a page on the morning flight to JER. Some weeks later I was supposed to be in the same seat (5A) on what I later discovered was the same aircraft.
Sadly, the CE curtain was put back a row and I was, in fact, in 6A. Would that have counted as a win?!

I gave up... marked several High Life's (mainly DUS-LHR; LGW-JER) and never hit anybody, or have been hit as far as I am aware..

I am forced to conclude that someone felt my autograph was too valuable to leave on board and half-inched it. I feel the odds of success in this game are very low, but I'm still (stubbornly) going to continue playing it!

Lowering the tone
But still curious!
I have managed to discover my own graffiti before, perhaps somebody removed the mag, and replacements have been inserted. It certainly reduces the odds though

Hi all,
I was on the BA0663 on the 11th March and was quite surprised when I opened the Europe pages of High Life to find:

Unfortunately I didn't have a pen to add my details below. But will carry one in future. I also wonder how many hits have ever appeared together on one High Life Page ?

That one was in 1D or 1F, which are usually reserved for GCHs until t-24 IIRC. Actualy I was booked and OCLI'd in 1D the day before but work ran over and I had to get myself offlloaded and shuffled back one day. As I do LCA every month there usually is one of mine marked up. Bear in mind the game was started because three of us here who are regulars on that run realised we all preferred the same seat.
As I did 7 flights between Sun- Sat last week I tend to leave a lot of marks! I also had three other booking and offloaded myself from those flights as I got rerouted and retasked. Slightly busier than the average week, which have been only about 4 flights per week recently
Marking up any seat down the back really is a reduced chance of a hit, but as a lot of posters here would have some status or knowledge of the system they presumably will aim for where there is a higher chance of a strike in the exit rows or the front cabin of CE in "preferential seats", and on CW probably in 64A&K etc.
