Keep them coming, folks!

I am entering the publicly posted teams into my database right now.

I know there are some PMed teams already, but I will only look at them AFTER I have submitted my team for the AltObits Deadpool, which will happen tomorrow, I guess.

Okay, I will allow it this one time for you - but next time, the subs will come into play in the order that you submit them.

As the various hosts of our deadpools beginning in January can attest, I have now submitted my teams for every pool. I'm finished a little earlier than I expected (thank you, lockdown) so I might just begin to start compiling the masterlist tomorrow, working my way from the earliest submissions to the latest.

I have already added the publicly posted teams into my Excel file, and didn't see any name I would disqualify. I might be a little more lenient in the "Social media influencer" department than msc for the DDP. His limit is 500k subscribers, I set the limit at 100k. However, I will follow the rules as written on the front page... a pick disqualified for the DDP is also disqualified in the DbN...So the loophole technically is that you can submit fringier names, as long as they are not ALSO submitted to the DDP and then get rejected.

 

As a consequence: All the fringe-fame people that the DBN rules do not disqualify, are accepted on a preliminary basis. But they can get thrown out later if they fail the DDP fame check. So if you already know that you are stretching the rules, have a few subs ready.

And if they are on my DbN team, they're OK, because I wrote the rule in the first place. B):lol:

Alright, 

18 teams in by now. Apart from the pm'ed teams, I can also confirm that the publicly posted teams are okay (unless there's a DDP surprise still coming).

And I would like to thank you for making it easy so far with the fame requirements - it's looking good!

Alright, the deadline is over.

We have 35 teams, which is exactly the same number as last year.

 

Some inevitable losses, but also quite a few names.

Best of luck to all, and a happy new year!

 

A masterlist with all picks will be made tomorrow.
