marinade 18 Posted December 31, 2021 On 28/12/2021 at 14:58, marinade said: Sorry, I'm still not clear about this. I've got three in my draft team who are all relatives of celebrities. Rules state: "the parents and siblings of celebrities are technically a grey area, but I feel most of them can be run through the 6 check points above" with check point 1 being "Are they notable for anything other than being ill, at least at a local level?" Well, yes, they're notable for being relatives of celebrities. So is the official line that that's not enough? That 'notable' has to mean independent of their relative..? Thanks. Oh well. Guess I'll find out soon enough. Entered, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the past, yes, but you were asking if the email changed since this thread was created and the email we've been using for all of this year remains in use. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,942 Posted January 1, 2022 New theme team: Poor Little Ghoul - consisting of US Billboard chart toppers, named in reference to Ricky Nelson's "Poor Little Fool" as it were the first Billboard No 1 hit and I couldn't think of any better name ideas. As the main reason for creation is wholly admittedly because these people would be fun for me to write the obits for, I limited myself to names that fit the theme that WEREN'T picked on the DDP in 2021 - no reason to go for people like ONJ, Ronstadt, or Valli when they're sure to be picked anyway. C. W. McCall (JOKER) Abdul "Duke" Fakir April Stevens Barry McGuire Dave "Baby" Cortez Dean Torrence Gary Troxel Gary U.S. Bonds Jay Siegel Johnny Farina Johnny Rivers Mark Lindsay Maurice Williams Nino Tempo Ruby Nash Garnett Sandy Nelson Santo Farina Shirley Owens Tommy Roe Vito Picone Pretty surprised no one picked Abdul "Duke" Fakir in 2021! Newcomers to my space team are Joe Engle, Jake Garn, Margaret Hamilton, and Maarten Schmidt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
