The only qualification requirement is that they are currently alive

And with the new rules - if they die 2021, would they bring home some points?

Are you asking about the DDP? Cause this isn’t the thread for it.

So, 38 teams already listed - I'm throwing the above on the mercy of the assembled masses here. Entered post-midnight so technically too late

 

What's the consensus from the 38 who got their line ups in on time? 

 

As one of the 38 I'm minded to allow this one firstly because we have a 24 post newbie on our hands and secondly because - looking at the massed ranks of highly obscure and (presumably) dangerously ill already on the masterlist I'd be amazed if the 20 names above I'd be amazed if Mr. Whit was anywhere near the podium in a week or two.

Unless someone on that list entered hospice or suffered a massive heart attack after the deadline I don’t think anyone would actually care.

Ok, so I forgot to enter a list because Alzheimer's is worsening. Well, not that I had that impressive list, so no problem...

Ah FFS  - not another one. I put together a team last week. She is the fifth one gone off the list since then. Had this game started on Christmas day, I'd be on the verge of victory by now. And I couldn't find enough decent names to replace them. :evil:

 

I'm fully expecting Floyd Little, Dai Davies and Carlos Menem to all die at about 11.30 tonight.

I would also have no issues with Mr Whit being allowed in. Always happy to see new faces, even if they cant read the fucking rules.

 

Speaking of which, given his obviously long track record on here, I would also throw Drol a bone and give him/her an hour to chuck in a team. The game hasn't actually started yet, so I would make an exception in this instance.
