His sub for Patrick Cryne got lost down the back of a sofa, thanks for spotting it! Jean of Luxembourg takes his place. Now, I hear that Mowzey Radio was a highly popular singer in Uganda. Now, he's a highly popular household name in Joey's house, as he gets off to a flier with a unique hit already. Well done. He had a string of successes in his homeland as part of the group Goodlyfe Crew, but is apparently the second member of the band to die in a bar fight in 3 years! Anyhow, the Cup starts with 4 points, and mention of one of those slightly obscure but interesting folk we all love. 1. Charon (Unrepentant) vs Maryportfuncity (Inter Youngboys FC) 0-0 2. Pedro (Trottingbum Hotsores) vs The Dead Cow 0-0 3. Young Willz (Glasgow Ron Weasley Ed Sheeran Slash Fanfiction Thistle Wanderers United) vs The Engineer 0-0 4. Grim Up North (Going Going GUN) vs Yorkshire Banker 0-0 5. Msc vs Wormfarmer 0-0 6. Spade Cooley (Great Railway Journeys with Hughie Gallacher and Robert Enke) vs Roverandout 0-0 7. Joey Russ vs Garn (Video Assistant Reaper) 4-0 8. Bibliogryphon (Bye Bye Biblio) vs Phantom of the Midway (AKA Rad Guy) 0-0 9. Sean (Shaun of the Dead’s Magical Funeral Parlour) vs Fixed Business (Business Fixed) 0-0 10. Gcreptile (The eaten tide pods) vs John Key 0-0 11. Deathray (First In, First Out and Never Invited to an Orgy Again) vs Sir Creep (The Month-to-Month Tenants) 0-0 12. Captain Chorizo vs Book (Never Heard of Soccer) 0-0

Yes, they were unique picks so I bolded them to remember their spelling when adding to the masterlist. Then forgot when I copy and pasted from word doc over to here.

Reminder of the Round 2 draw for Winners of these ties.

Yeah, sorry, if I'd taken the Dr Who round seriously (I had the daft idea of randomising it at the time) the Scavenger Hunt would have been over by Christmas. The first Christmas. Thanks for the answers. I suspected the EU one, but thought I'd double check...

I gave up on Kevin Bacon after 20 options. Too many shit films to go through. The EU any President or PMs one (PS it is ALL Presidents and PMs, right? Even if the country has a President AND a PM?) is a long list of options and lord knows how many folk have Grammys! Btw, Biblio, 2 quick questions on the boxing one. Is it ANY of the world titles, or is it just the Heavyweight one? According to Wiki, they've got WBA World Middleweight Champions and so on for every weight class? Also, are the pre-split champions counted, or are we talking (again looking at Wiki) Ali and onwards, time wise?

83. Nevin was also picked. She isn't unique either.

I picked Nevin in the DDP this year on the basis that if she has Gord Downie style prognosis, she might just live to the World Cup but not much further. You can all laugh at this in December, likely. AHB isn't unique btw.

Yep, seemed a bit apt too, given she was one of your deadpool survivors from last year - might pay dividends yet!

"57 year gap" Hey, if they want to post on here when they're a bit closer to the Kid's age on joining, I'm not stopping them!

First thought. Man, Kevin Bacon has been in a LOT of shit films.

Thanks for the clarification!

Does Question 1 include Chancellors, Taoiseachs and so on (ie all state leaders of all 28 countries), or just countries with a specific PM or President?

I apologise for sounding like a broken record here, and I'm really not having a go at anyone (especially not the DDP organisers), but two ITV obits and a BBC one not being Qualifying obits makes the DDP more of a mockery than any B-team or dodgy pick, imo of course. I didn't get the push to get the local pages removed in 2015, it didn't remove the dodgy picks, they will always move to AN Other QO because journalists love playing at deadpools. It zapped a bunch of the fascinating Other Lives types instead.

Nearly had one of the presumably youngest posters in Deathlist forum history there. Came back through from the kitchen to find the wean casually typing gibberish into the reply box on the Gazza thread. Alas, deleted it before it got posted and any smart sod went "most intelligent post from msc in a while there".

The Masterlist is completed, I'll check the Wiki Deaths in 2018 page to spot any necessary subs before midnight. 113 names on the 2017 First Round Masterlist, 132 in 2018 as it stands! Incidentally, how many of those 113 are still with us? 66!

^ I didn't realise he played in the English league either.

Oh, Webo? I don't remember him being in the Premier League?

Bingo! Just rushing out the door so will add you to the masterlist when I get back in. No byes for anyone in the First Round! Good luck.

van Hooijdonk surely is one?

Ah, 100% support then. And yes, 2-3 year stretches seems the best. Although, as TMIB is a Doctor Who fan, perhaps he was cursed, being the 4th game runner. (The 4th Doctor Who, Tom Baker, wound up in the role far longer than anyone else and it would have driven him mad if he weren't already Tom Baker and thus nuttier than squirrel shit...)

A favourite of DDTs, if memory serves.

It's because Ali got too busy.

He has been, but he did get his team in before he went off on a rant. That's the sort of forward thinking we approve. Anyhow, with Sir Creep's side in, only one team left to come in, and no, Joey, I'm not naming who it is.
