livingbygrace 217 Posted March 31 That is a lot of people being the very last day of the month and it being Easter Sunday. people are going to be busy. Hope people are going to remember otherwise 3rd round might become very interesting . @deadsox it might have been very wise and may pay off for you putting a team in being your opponent is one of the missing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,683 Posted April 1 It looks to me like Barbara Rush's QO came about an hour too late. Strangely, justonecornetto suffered from the month of march arriving a few hours late (Paul Vachon's leap year death) and ending an hour too soon. So it actually was an extremely close match-up. Another curiosity of the round: Perhaps scored 0 points but his subs 1 and 2 died. He was saved by the luck of the coins. Spade_Cooley lost to the kind of random old people hit he had previously warned of, of them being more dangerous than the teams with the typical assortment of hospice people that are often shared among players anyway. All remaining players have submitted a team, by the way. Masterlist will be up in a few hours. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
An Fear Beag 1,456 Posted April 1 On 01/03/2024 at 22:09, An Fear Beag said: Thanks - I reckon you are favourite in this match, but who knows. I have a good few picks who will either be dead in a week or they will be a completely wasted pick. Most of your guys are definitely dying soon - only question is whether it will be this month or not. Could be a good game. All in all, a fairly accurate prediction of our match. Apart from the last bit - it wasn't a good game! I knew I was in a spot of bother after the first week, when all of my ICU types survived (seriously Kaiti Grey - how?). My chances of success lay in getting an early lead that I could hang on to, and when that didn't materialise, I was always vulnerable to my opponents more long-term sickness picks. You are not going to win too many games if you don't score! Best of luck @max_bossetti - hope you go on and win it now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,325 Posted April 1 Good luck Sir Creep. Both of my subs were used late last night. My joker, Sheriff Lacy Rogers, jumped the starting gun and I fell victim to one of those news bots which provided a seemingly contemporaneous account of Nicholas Lloyd Webber's critical ill health.

Wormfarmer 421 Posted April 1 Beaten fair and square this year, but soooooo close. I was only a Louis Gossett jr, Charlie Bird and Eric Carmen away from winning this match. I just don't have the research capabilities to find those bedridden African Bushmen like you big hitters do.

MariNisia 3,955 Posted April 1 I'm particularly pleased to be able to play this round with you, @wannamaker. You're an exceptional player and one of my favourites to reach the final.

My joker, Sheriff Lacy Rogers, jumped the starting gun and I fell victim to one of those news bots which provided a seemingly contemporaneous account of Nicholas Lloyd Webber's critical ill health. I turned mine in a couple hours to spare, like we do. Didn’t have a clue my ringer had died; and I only threw Irving’s name as my sub bc I figured you would launch him yet again though I’m certain he’s fine and a liar, but I could eliminate one of your picks should the unfortunate occur, which it did. Same reason I made Harrell my joker (I knew you would) and why I listed Jimmy Carter (don’t wanna get caught w pants down should he actually die). I did my best to make this a 6-on-6 match or so, and to that extent I’m ok with my lineup. But they’ll either all be dead or ok by March 4th. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
