Well, if that’s the case I’ll try to rig the cup draw to put you against Clorox next time so that you can prove a comeb... Oh...

Lucky break for you

Congrats Grim. I’m still tempted to intentionally pair you two see if there’s a way I “accidentally” have you two up against each other somehow.

Alright, there’s now evidence that Sam Lloyd died on the 30th, and as such his points has been rescinded from the two pickers. Fortunately, both of them did provide subs for there teams, and it is changed as followed: Msc now has Willie K on his team Death Impends now has Yoo Sang-Chul on his squad. Master list to be updated, and refer to the first scoreboard with Jaci Hermstad as the actual tallies for the score...

His gofundme mentions his date of death as April 30, which affects a ton of pools...

I was one of those racers when I played Mario Kart...

Phenomenal album

Just you

I believe entries are closed now? Jill Gascoine died since the last post. EDIT: Ah, she’s also the one worth 40 for me. Sometimes randomized lists do bring you fruit...

After Sam Lloyd our pool is only 4th place overall.

So you’re asking me to rig the cup draw to put you against Grim then? Okie dokie. Will keep that in mind.

The remission news for Lloyd really threw me off. Now with miss after miss, I’m not even sure I’m in the top 10 any more...

Let’s not get into that debate today...

That’s I won’t die, it’s the world that will end up to 3rd now. Dark horse for the ddp title?

Metro obit

While there may be controversy with the Jaci Hermstad thing, the complete opposite occurs with Sam Lloyd, who has sadly lost his cancer battle at 56. He scores for two teams, however both of them (msc and Death Impends), are in the same tie. So no, neither of them have scrubbed the other chances of winning just yet... DeathByArsenic vs An Fear Bag 0 - 3 JiroemonKimura vs Chorizo 0 - 0 Clorox vs Grim 0 - 0 Death Impends vs msc 6 - 3

Sad, but not unexpected. Though there only seems to be the one tweet and that Facebook post so far. Not even his gofundme got updated...

Some of these cases are indeed borderline of being FFBI, which is inevitable given that cup hosts try to be as lenient as possible without accepting actual FFBI (and for the record, I have rejected names such as Taylor Swift’s mom, local firemen, and an obscure university professor who didn’t even get an acceptable cup obit anyways). Now I had thought there was evidence out there of a horseback career that allowed me to let her in. She didn’t have a big career in it, but I thought there was enough. Now, so far none of the folk on forum has even taken issue with this except for someone who doesn’t even have an interest in the cup. If there’s more cup folk who aren’t okay with the decision of letting her in then I may take some action, but as it stands she’s staying in the cup as a scoring hit, and my word is final. Okay? No wonder the cup can be super stressful to host at times...

I was sort of within 100 years on the first one. I just accidentally put the wrong two letters on the first one, honest.

Zanis had a CNN mention, so there’s a high likelihood he gets something imo (I didn’t pick him because I was already queried about him in the cup so out of respect for the poster I didn’t pick him). Also reptile wasn’t the only person who did pick him.

This is coming from someone who has no interest in the Olympics.

Animal House co-creator Matty Simmons is dead

Matteo de Cosmo, art director for shows like Luke Cage and The Punisher dead at 52

Yeah. She was a horseback rider before the ALS unfortunately struck her. Unfortunately most articles showed her as a dying women rather than her career in the sport, but these things happen sometimes...

Jaci Hermstad becomes the first hit of the month, which was rather quick for an ALS hospice case. Nevertheless, Laura Barry 2.0 scores for two folk. One of them, Death Impends picked her predecessor in the DDP, which I wonder if that’s part of the reason she was picked? Questions to think about... The other picker was An Fear Beag, shaping up to be this year’s rookie of the year as he faces the lone other rookie in the match still DeathByArsenic. That said, it’s a very long month ahead, and this thing ain’t over till it’s over... DeathByArsenic vs An Fear Bag 0 - 3 JiroemonKimura vs Chorizo 0 - 0 Clorox vs Grim 0 - 0 Death Impends vs msc 3 - 0
