[QUOTE=ArizonaTeach]  
No, grape…GRAPE!!!

Can’t we discuss this here to get consensus? PMing between 10 people seems like a real bear.  
[/QUOTE]

Seems like we should be allowed to discuss:  
My suggestions were:  
Tomato  
Plums  
Mango

to go along with \*\*Struan’s \*\* Peach and now two for Grape.

We have 10 players I think.  
Votes so far:  
2 for Grape  
1 for Peach  
1 for Mango

\*\*Known Wrong Answers: \*\*  
Prickly pear  
PITAYA  
Guava

Can **Gigi** join the Red Team as we have a vacancy and if she is interested and she turns on PM?

Tomato has been guessed.

Add me in for red grapes!!

My second choices were lychee fruit and red currants. But now that you mention it, plum’s not a bad guess either.

Yeah, you all can have a vote or/and discussion before giving any actual answer. But not for very long. You all lucked out because of the night. 😛

Only about half an hour more. Then I’m just going to have to take what the most have said.

Well, seeing as my peach strategy appears unpopular/misguided/subject to location , I’ll put another vote in for red grapes.

Question for clarification – guesses made by the Red Team after my guess but before play officially went to the Blue Team have not been confirmed or denied – is that right?
