Just sub it onto your list as an edit All lists will be pasted on 1st of January, all edits on your post here will be taken into account. If you don't know how to edit your post, a comment here will do, just check the masterlist and make sure your list is right (and I haven't gotten confused) after new years! @TQR pasted his list in another forum and tagged me in it, I will paste it as a comment now. TQR, if you make any changes to your list from now until 1st of January, just repost your comment here! Same if you want any subs (up to 5) Rolf Harris Pope Benedict XVI Gianluca Vialli James Whale Frank Field Tony Bennett George Alagiah Jonnie Irwin Katie Keltie Roberta Flack Joanne Woodward Jean-Marie Le Pen Jimmy Carter Rosalynn Carter Linda Nolan Janey Godley Andy Taylor Rhod Gilbert Shannen Doherty Rob Burrow Katherine Jackson Nigel Starmer-Smith Nigel Lawson Bobby Charlton Norman Tebbit Dennis Skinner Douglas Hurd Michael Parkinson Yoko Ono Liza Minnelli Chris Rea Mel Brooks Harry Belafonte Marianne Faithfull Pete Murray Michael Caine Clint Eastwood Robert Wagner James Earl Jones Prunella Scales Malcolm Hebden Eileen Derbyshire Phil Collins Shane MacGowan Tina Turner Mohamed Al-Fayed Lindsey Buckingham Elsie Kelly Ayatollah Ali Khamenei David Hamilton @diego @gcreptile your private message submissions are acknowledged and I will open them when I paste everyone elses lists. @Dying Probably apologies for not following the same protocol of not opening up messages, yours was the first and I wasn't thinking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Key 747 Posted December 30, 2022 In all cases where Pele isn't edited before Janaury 1st, unless if told otherwise, I will assume your first sub will be active. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joltin Joe 149 Posted December 30, 2022 @John Key, I have edited Pele out for Ted Kaczynski. But I wanted to know if it was ok to change my list before the 31st using someone other than my 5 subs? If it isn't, I will replace Kaczynski with one of my 5 original subs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is okay to change your list in any way before I put it onto the masterlist - it's why I'm not compiling everyones lists until the fireworks start. Any other attempted changes may be considered. Late submissions will also be considered (just like last year) as long as they can't be argued to be using information from 2023 to have an advantage. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aside from the annoying capital letters (which would be cool if you could change before I add it onto the masterlist) I also see some obvious spelling errors which will result in your picks being missed when I add them on - e.g. John Ackland, Jane Rossington, XV1 (okay XV1 probably wouldn't make my search miss it but it's incorrect ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Key 747 Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) This competition's masterlist will be compiled now. Changes after that aren't against the rules, but will need to be justified and agreed to by me --- I welcome scrutiny from other members for changes or new lists that use new information or seem to be in bad faith. New changes or new lists should be made through a new comment. (I think I've said something about until after the fireworks, but I think it would be better right now to avoid any potential 1st of January controversy) Any lists or changes made using information that was only available at "a later time (e.g. 2023)" will he heavily scrutinised and may result in disqualification of picks - so don't push my leniency I'll put a strict line in the sand as time goes on for no more changes, but I won't formally acknowledge a date for this despite having one in mind - past January 1st is more than generous. This is primarily for new lists to be submitted - last year there were more than a few late entries which I am more than happy to accomodate for. I'll continue keeping an eye and being busy on this site for the next week before I plan to go on holiday. Most importantly, thank you for participating - I enjoyed this last year and look forward to the competition this year. Good luck all!

I will be tracking times that people submit their list starting in 80 minutes, which is new years in my time zone. "Tracking times" doesn't mean anything, it shouldn't handicap you. I've never formally rejected a late submission, just that if someone dies early in the year it could be up for discussion. So I wouldn't say without scrutiny, but it shouldn't matter.
