Deathlist Cup 2024

Recommended Posts

I'm taking some time off most things from mid-Feb to early March so wouldn't be able to turn in a team at that point. Might take part in 2025.

Alright, let's see how this goes...

42 competitors have signed up, so the first round will consist of 10 match-ups to get down to a full roster of 32.

The 20 highest-seeded players (or is that lowest-seeded?) will face off,  i.e. those from no. 25 to 45 (with Pop_Zeus sitting out).

 

So the list randomizer of random.org gives me this:

  1. Gooseberry Crumble (26)
  2. Famous6eva (42)
  3. GuyFromFuture (28)
  4. Liz Lemon (25)
  5. CalebH (29)
  6. Bibliogryphon (34)
  7. livingbygrace (new - 43)
  8. Therewillbedeaths7 (35)
  9. Dying Probably (37)
  10. max bossetti (new - 44)
  11. Wormfarmer (41)
  12. Thatcher (new - 45)
  13. Yorkshire Banker (27)
  14. DeathByArsenic (39)
  15. The Immortal (38)
  16. justonecornetto (36)
  17. GreatUncleBulgaria (40)
  18. MortalCaso (33)
  19. theoldlady (32)
  20. BabyBlue (30)

 

I interpret this as:

 

Gooseberry Crumble vs. Famous6eva

GuyFromFuture vs. Liz Lemon

CalebH vs. Bibliogryphon

livingbygrace vs. Therewillbedeaths7

Dying Probably vs. max bossetti

Wormfarmer vs. Thatcher

Yorkshire Banker vs. DeathByArsenic

The Immortal vs. justonecornetto

GreatUncleBulgaria vs. MortalCaso

theoldlady vs BabyBlue

I think I've cleaned up my inbox enough - team submissions are open. Good luck!

 

Also, for the next round, I think I want to draw the whole bracket for the rest of the competition at once.

I'm looking at: https://challonge.com/de/tournaments/bracket_generator.html, for example.

 

Don't forget to pick a joker!

Would that be a seeded draw?

Sadly, moving to the 2nd round because of this would be the farthest I've made it in my 3 years of participation...

Sorry all, had a family hospitalisation/health crisis at the weekend, been preoccupied with work and completely forgot about this.

Have just sent a team but assume too late.

Apologies GR and well played Mortal Caso.

It’s always a difficult excuse to make isn’t it when you’re in hospital with an ill relative - sorry I’ll need to spend a few hours away from the hospital today as I’ve got to pick 11 really ill hospitalised people with a modicum of notability who might die in the next month.

As long as you don't ask them to speculate on their own obit chances. :D

*In the voice of Abe Simpson*
Where are the matches at for us poor spectators? Back in my day teams were revealed right at midnight and now we have to wait over 18 hours for a team reveal? What is this, Jokers Pool? I demand a refund, I demand a… falls right asleep

I got back from work, about 50 minutes ago. Now I'll go to the swimming pool...

 

I will allow Great Uncle Bulgaria's team.

There doesn't seem to be any unfair advantage gained, and there've been some (hopefully) unique circumstances.
