maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted January 22, 2022 So, a couple of observations 1 - Seems unlikely now that a belated discovery of a death before Bishop will skew the final result, so BIG congratulations to the skilful and courageous Banana who won a tough competition fair and square. 2 - Banana has been PM'd regarding whether consumer goods or a charitable donation is the best prize option but has yet to respond. I could - like - make a donation to Brinsworth House if I never hear back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted January 23, 2022 Fair play to Banana for opting for a charitable donation as a prize - duly gifted. I'll cop that I influenced the charity choice - UK's leading food bank charity - after our winner gave me a free hand in doing so. A good option, I think, in that it helps the most marginal to survive and - maybe - become dead poolers whilst likely doing little to aid any obitable type in distress.

maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted January 23, 2022 Oh aye, and - feel free to make comments regarding how the pool could be improved etc. all of which will be considered before we allow this thread to sink into oblivion where it might well rub shoulders with previous Deathrace threads. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then thought he was a really bad pick for the rest of the month once he left the hospital. Turns out he was a really good shout after all, just kept going a little too long. What's really annoying is that I have just broken my first rule of the Cup - when looking for Cup picks, start by looking at the survivors of your Deathrace team. Not sure that I would have picked him anyhow, but it is annoying that I didn't even consider him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t feel too bad - I looked at the survivors of your Deathrace team and didn’t pick him either! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If his friends and family don't like it they should have convinced him of the error of his ways. Be an anti-vaxxer if you like, just have no contact with anybody, ever. It's not about you, it's about your impact on others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
