I’ll be interested to see who you meant. It's HIM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,569 Posted November 30, 2020 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
