  1. I do appreciate the hanker to keep the old thread on the go but every now and then you need to get a new car/dog/wife.  It will keep the clutter of 2019 away from my efforts soon to really sort out who won last year.  Also I half fancy trying to sort out who won in the year prior to me doing the duties.  To everyone still waiting, sorry. Happy new year. I've updated 90% of the old spreadsheet but won't be entering any pools in 2019. Going to be busy all this next year, but I'll be turning back the clock to the point where it all went wrong and get a host of real answers for 2018 soon.

  2. No I'm not here, not even lurking, not watching and not recording. 

     

    Seriously, I got a new hobby that takes too much time.  Too much back and fourth for work - but just been let go off for Cristmas, that's very kind of them. (blighters expected me to clear 35 project jobs but I only managed 27)

     

    So with the prompt from DDT I promise to tie up the loose ends of the Hartlepool Deadlypool in the remainder of the year and if anyone wants to take it off my hands there is no chance they could do a worse job. 

     

    Catch you round in a bit...

    And if I may use my sub... I'd like to place Nobby Stiles behind Johnny Hubbard and in front of John McCain.

    and because you had a pre season hit you can bring a new sub in that could win you more points later in the year.

    Likewise, if I'm entitled to replace Erica Garner. I'd like to place France Gall at the front of my team.

    I had it down that you got a point for Carmen Franco - but yes, France Gall in for your number 1 spot.

    I'll rev up Stirling Moss into my team (is that into Rose Marie's spot or at the end?) since I wanted to pick him somewhere but completely forgot.

    your choice entirely - where ever you think he fits best.

    Question(s): The teams we posted in this thread, do they count?

     

    Does my sub jump in for Erica Garner? Do I get points for Thomas S. Monson?

    sorry missed those - I'll sort it out in a minute - but yes, you can move any of your team around and bring in any other name to bring your squad back to 12 names.

     


  8. And my team...

     

    because we are now in 2018, I trip the dateline curse and can only enter 9 names.  Thus my whole team from last year (minus the two hits) is carried into this year.

     

    1. Valerie Harper

    2. Ed Asner

    3. Carl Reiner

    4. Betty White

    5. Marty Allen

    6. Mel Brooks

    7. Nanette Fabray

    8. Carol Channing

    9. Jerry Stiller

     

    Sub 1. David Hedison

    Sub 2. Bobby Vinton (new for this year)

     

    If anyone else wants a team entry - just submit up-to 9 names and 2 subs, any time during this year.

     

    So yet again I'm back-dating the start of this pool to Boxing Day (26th Dec 2017) and a number of teams are off the mark. 

    Hits on Rose Marie, Carman Franco and Erica Garner.

     

    Won't do these 8 teams much good because I'm not rewarding them to any degree. 

     

    Plus a real first 25pt sub hit for gcreptile getting Thomas S Monson.

     

    1st Leader board of 2018

     

    1st - 26.0 points - gcreptile

    2nd - 2.4 points - Sean

    3rd - 1.3 points - Phantom of the Midway

    =4th - 1.1 points - Death Impends

    =4th - 1.1 points - Prophet

    =4th - 1.1points -  Drol

    7th - 1.0 points - The Dead Cow

    8th - 0.5 points - time. (just for saying she was on the cusp of your list)

    =9th - the other 22 teams.

     

    gcreptile, PotM, Sean, TDC, Prophet, Drol and DI can now add an extra name(s) into their 2018 teams. Either promotion of a sub or introduction of a new name(s).

    I believe the limit is two subs?

    Yes, there is a limit of two subs, I'm taking down all the names right now. This year every one who puts down three or more sub names will get 10 minus points if those people die. LOL.

     


  10. Gord Downie played the drums so bonus points for many.

    Rad Guy 30.8 plus 12.  Captain Chorizo 45.7 plus 18.

    Jiroemon Kimura 35.6 plus 14.  The Unknown Man 35.5 plus 14.

    msc 25.4 plus 10.   Maryport 40.3 plus 16.  Deathers 30.2 plus 12.  

    Book 30.1 plus 12.  Morbid Kid 35 plus 14.

     

    On the same day 17th October, Danielle Darrieux died.  This was a double day hit for Book.  She was down to score 20 points and depending on who died first, her or Gord Downie each death should affect the others score.  I don't know now who died first so will count it as a draw and not move the team members up or down but also I'll provide a special bonus of 20 points for the double hit.  So with the bonus of 8 points that's another 48.

     

    On the 18th Nov, Malcolm Young died and provided 20 basic points plus 8 bonus points for I'mNotHades.

     

    Final hit of the year looks to have been Rose Marie, on the 28th Dec. The Dead Cow pulls in 40.1 basic points plus 24 bonus points.  Death Impends adds 68 points and I add 32 points to my score.

     

    the bonus hand out for not playing subs is this year one short rated at 10 bonus points for Billiogryphon, I'mNotHades and Maryport.  If two were blank then together they score 25 points to Jiroemon Kimura and Prosperina.

     

    DDT wins a bonus few points for again playing an adventurous team - almost the same line up as last year's effort.  25 extra points on that basis.  

     

    And as Book was the 13th finisher, an extra 50 points are added.

     

    Well done Death Impends. Left it till three days and the last hit of the year to re-pass RadGuy.

  13. The Glen Campbell Hollywood Squares bonuses. Missed a few hits - for Drol - Smith Hart was 30 points and unique 12 points but this takes 5 off the Glen Campbell score. 

    Also missed was a hit on Carsten Mohren on the 31st Jan. This should be an extra 42 points for Jiroemon Kimura.  He is missing 56 points for the hit on Sasha Lakovic.  This also puts an extra 10 points his way now for Errol Christie.

    I think I understand the scoring system.

     

    Unless anyone objects, I can try to make a final scoreboard in a week.

     

    And if you object, please do it! Object now! I want you to object!!

     

    Fucking object, you faggot!

    Oh heck - don't - it's still all under control.  Just had far to much to do - don't put your self out - I'll be on it later.

    Yes, I have reservations about that one.  Religious beliefs (or lack thereof) are not necessarily on record.  It's a private matter for many people and as YW says, attitudes can change.

    I'm all for a music category though.

    I would like you to add a catagory for me please Toasty instead of my 4th choice.


  16. What! You mean I won this?  Oh, that's nice!  Thanks.  Does this mean I have to run this?  Oh heck.  By the sounds of it you need five new categories?  Or if it's down to me to pick them. Not sure when the next start date should be but if it when I have picked 5 categories then the pressure is on me.  Right now I'm so out of the loop to know who is ill, I won't be having any untoward advantage,  but I guess such as... I'll round up Politics, sport, TV, music and Film.  Don't take this as gospel but the first outline...

    1.  Presidents and Prime Ministers of the current 28 European Union countries (past and present).

    2.  Boxers who have held any of the world title belts of any 4 organisational bodies WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO.

    3.  Any actors who appeared in the TV series Dallas.  Including cast members, co-stars, guest stars, special guest stars "and staring" actors (357 episodes over 14 years.). As per the wiki page "List of Dallas (1978 TV Series) cast members.

    4.  How about a very short list? Atheists in music? They do all that signing and don't believe in a god.  Wiki has a list of about 84 names who are still going. 

    5.  Anyone who has been in a Film with Kevin Bacon.

     

    catch up with you all in a bit...
