Shadow DeathList Competition 2024

Recommended Posts

Once the clock strikes midnight in New Zealand in 2 hours and 40 minutes, all lists will be henceforth dated / timed within entry. Edits are highly discouraged, new comments are all the rage right now. Entries remain open, there is no end date for entries to be submitted. 

No information from 2024 should be used for late entries. Entries should be in good faith. 

 

Early year deaths should only be recognised in whatever time zone they died in, idk that sounds fair and common sense. Early deaths will be questioned and I will wait about 24 hours to allow any objections, even if the results seem pretty obvious. 

Good luck.

@John Key Just to clarify, will you automatically replace one of our picks if they've died before 2024 with the first sub that we list? Asking regarding Shecky Greene.

Good question :) 

 

Usually when someones sub dies, I will tag them in the batch of deaths to say that their (first, second, third) sub has died. This is their chance to bring up if someone died and in practise you can give your reasoning on why they should be in your shadowlist rather than a sub.
I won't edit your list, I prefer to keep it exactly as you gave it to me. 

 

To give an option that you would probably prefer - If you would like for someone to be moved up and to avoid any further discussion with the sometimes difficult host of this pool, you can just respond with your full list with how you would like it to be amended (e.g. Shecky Greene was your 42nd pick, you want your first sub Donald Trump to replace them, you would put Donald Trump in their place and repost your list as a brand new comment)

 

There's nothing automatic about my system, it's very manual and I'm sure there's a much smarter way to run a pool than the way I'm doing it.
