Looks like have 8 or 9 of the 11 picks needed for this round.
I'm going to start trying to post the results from the round once everyone picks, but before the 8pm start of the next round for less confusion. Hope it helps!

I like 1 table per page (I'm on 50 ppp) so I know I hit all the guesses when I CTRL+F to check if something has been guessed already.

I'm fairly sure that I've only accepted Alphabet:Google, and rejected every other one.

Not accepting Walgreens for Walgreens Boots Alliance would’ve seemed overly nitty to me, but this isn’t my BBQ.

Though I did consider submitting Walgreens Boots Alliance that round as an angle since pwns sniped me.

It's not super clear to me why Subway isn't on the list given their revenue, but it might be because all of their locations are franchise owned? Hard to say. Either way, they def aren't there, and neither is their parent company [redacted].

Twitch isn't on there, but their parent company, Amazon, is.
