Not sure who you are thinking of, though my backup hasn’t been chosen, but I don’t consider HER obvs, although a name known around these parts.  I’ll be interested to see who you meant.

It's HIM.

No, I’m not sure why Crem picked two names. Might need to right a rule specifically against something like that in future...

Thanks Joey. I stand with Larry King then! :) @The Old Crem

That was the first name chosen mate

 

:D It's like you were both poised at the keyboard waiting for me to fuck up.

 

That's what you get for trying to finalise your DDP team, sort out the entry email for the DDP and then deciding to enter the Advent Avalanche.

 

I'll try Nick Hitchon then because it might help me find out if he is still alive or not.

Oh, I wonder how many of these people will die today still.

Well, there’s one at least...

Assuming space and assuming not picked, (think I got in under the wire)

Well, I need to wait for one new entrant and one replacement for Spade before I reveal my pick...

Wait, let me guess. You’re talking about Nobby Stiles, right? 

No? Damn it...

Indeed, Nobby Stiles was such a "eh, why not" pick for 4 years.

Is this the third time I've entered a Midsummer/Advent contest and my pick has died between entering and the contest starting? ffs. Give me 20 minutes to pick a shitty backup.

I kept mum on the Offensive Coordinator for the Univ Kentucky football team who had stage 4 for a while but ‘didn’t travel with the team’ a couple weeks back.  I checked on him today and he had died.  I was sad.

Yep, he’s back on for you, though I would find an extra name just in case he does end up dying before the starting line...

Question is...was Spade over in Pakistan and nipped into the hospital for a final heart massage? :lol:

Well, in any case that last spot is still open for anyone who wants it. I heard Peter Falk is keeping that seat warm for you...

So... 9 1/2 hours left, as the game begins at 00:01 GMT. But the game might not last much longer than that.

OK, in case my pick does die in the next 11 hours, I'll use as my backup pick....  (PM'd Joey)
