  6. Thank you for running this. It was so much fun. Naturally I was routing for Kate Bush but the last four would all have been worthy winners What can I say we have excellent taste

    Centenarians Deadpool 2023

    Have sent my team by PM. I'd that OK? I can post it here as well.

    Pope Benedict XVI

    I think his real significance probably lies in the work he did before being Pope when he advised on doctrine. He was very hard line on traditional Catholic bugbears like abortion and same sex relationships but he was soft on members of the clergy who committed abuse. I think the main reason he stepped down was that he recognised he was not the vehicle for change the Church needed and/or to avoid answering some awkward questions

    DL Dead Pools

    Scavenger Hunt V needs to be added to that list for this year but if you are using it as a guide for future years then not because it is a moveable feast

  18. This is a fantastic battle

  20. If everyone down voted the bottom 4 we would still need 21 more players to put their votes in. I haven't been monitoring how many people vote each day
  21. Considering my complaints about lack of female vocalists in the early rounds they seem to have done quite well
