Remind me, where's the evidence you ever picked Pele? You posted ONE team on 12 Dec, including Buzzi, not including Pele, right?

You what????!!!

 

FFS Steve - rule 12 is below, I'll allow the multitudes to express an opinion here - you had Pele and subs and you ignored the subs bench to parachute Buzzi in - ooooohhhhhh, you might think you can hear a kettle but that's my piss boiling!

 

12 - In the event that Deathlist editing options or other online trickery is discovered to have been employed in the editing of teams, those duly fingered for such cheating will be removed from the Deathrace and banned for life from subsequent entry into Deathraces.

Yeah, well - I rip every team and duplicate it in a file, the deal is if a team member dies the subs bench is raided. If you remove a team member and ignore the bench, that's rule 12 invoked. 

 

I'm leaving the thread free for a full on pile on as the assembled masses of fans express opinions here. S'cuse me whilst I go and raid most benches and replace eight fucking jokers into the bargain.

Please allow me to continue in this pool. I did use one of my subs and there is proof there from that message on 12/12 at 06:41. It's my first time in this pool.

Hmm, you can't receive messages can you - I just tried sending one. 

 

Reet, just Buzzi-ing off to sort this Pele shit out!

REET

 

Masterlist adjusted for Pele's death. My bad NINE jokers to replace (including mine), along with plenty other teams packing Pele. Every competing team up to full strength

 

Currently five teams jokerless - I'll give them until the deadline to submit a new joker from the original 20 selections - if I don't hear back then the default is the joker rule (i.e. a jokerless team has the top - as in nearest the first place in the list -surviving pick as their joker)

 

No pressure or owt but if you're below - you have a day to nominate a new joker

twenty topplers and a minimum of two subs ("topplers" must be at least 18 years old on 1 Jan 2023; but are otherwise unrestricted).

 

Out of interest, would this allow the then-18 Kabosu next year should the dog be alive?

 

Nonetheless, I guess I'll try and enter, I believe these are fine:

 

Dick Van Dyke

Harry Belafonte

Caren Marsh Doll

Eva Marie Saint

June Spencer

Glynis Johns

Josip Manolic

Rosalynn Carter

Jimmy Carter

Hazel McCallion (Joker)

Pope Benedict

Ted Kaczynski

Linda Nolan

James Buckley (the Senator for NY turned candidate in CT turned Judge)

Henry Kissinger

Jim Inhofe

Imelda Marcos

Iris Apfel

Shane MacGowan

James Whale

 

Subs are Tony Bennett, Yoko Ono, and Elizabeth Dole.

No because Kabosu turns 18 on 2nd November 2023, after 1st January 2023.
