MariNisia 4,314 Posted January 17 Sorry for taking so long to tell you something about my participation as a player of your pool. I had my mind on other things, to be honest. My apologies, @gcreptile, and thank you for hosting. If it's still possible, I'd like to play one or two rounds, who knows, too. Thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve 744 Posted January 17 @gcreptile I have just sent you my team via PM. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,424 Posted January 18 44 players are in right now, so just like last year. The seed order is in the first post. 7 seeded players are not playing, but they would complete a ranking of 51 names. With 44 players we need 12 games in February to have 32 players in march. So the 24 lowest-ranked players in the game have to play, meaning numbers 28-51 would have a February match, BUT four of those players are not playing - as of now. So it's numbers 24-51 that are going to play next month. So the players 24-27, i.e. Spade_Cooley, wormfarmer, AnFearBeag and deadsox are already playing in the first round. If more players join, players no. 23 and higher (Diego at no. 23, Cpt. Chorizo at no. 22, etc..) will also play in February, unless it's one of those players tied at ranking no. 37 who haven't signed up currently (Great Uncle Bulgaria, Baby Blue and The Immortal). 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dying Probably 667 Posted January 20 Prepping a team and it generally takes the bottom of the barrel in terms of fame and continues to scrape: either this is a masterstroke of a team or an absolute clusterfuck, no in between 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,748 Posted January 20 Tbh, haven't really thought about a team. I'll shove a whole lotta silly names together and push them onto the field, in the hope that a late tackle stretchers them off. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LWCZ 299 Posted January 20 If it's still possible, I'd like to make a last-minute sign-up (although, with my DL luck, I'll be out fast ). 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So who knows who will actually be on the team by the end of the month 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,424 Posted January 20 28 minutes ago, Hell said: Can I play Of course you can, welcome. Think we're complete then? 20 minutes left. With Hell in, Cpt. Chorizo is also being pulled into the first round. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,424 Posted January 21 Okay, round one players (list for the AI): Bibliogryphon (21) Cpt. Chorizo (22) Diego (23) Spade_Cooley (24) Wormfarmer (25) An Fear Beag (26) deadsox (27) AltObitsGuy (28) the killing time (29) famous6eva (30) Liz Lemon (32) Yorkshire_Banker (33) Dying Probably (34) Thatcher (35) Gooseberry Crumble (36) livingbygrace (40) Octopus of Odstock (41) Bentrovato (42) Bendee87 (43) theoldcrem (44) Steve (45) Sleepiestpeep (46) Heef (47) Funeralopolis (48) YoungWillz (49) ladyfiona (50) Yvonne (51) LWCZ (52) Yes, @Bibliogryphon also needs to play after the addition of Hell. 46 players have signed up, we need to get down to 32 players, 14 matches, 28 players. Hell doesn't need to play himself because of the seeding, so Bibliogryphon gets pulled in. Match-ups up in a bit. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,424 Posted January 21 https://ibb.co/TMHxS6C Well, the video was too big, I have to think about it for the next round. Match-ups round 1: Wormfarmer (25) vs. ladyfiona (50) AltObitsGuy (28) vs. Yorkshire_Banker (33) Heef (47) vs. Bendee87 (43) Funeropolis (48) vs. Thatcher (35) Steve (45) vs. LWCZ (52) Dying Probably (34) vs. theoldcrem (44) Spade_Cooley (24) vs. Octopus of Odstock (41) An Fear Beag (26) vs. famous6eva (30) the killing time (29) vs. YoungWillz (49) Cpt. Chorizo (22) vs. deadsox (27) Yvonne (51) vs. Liz Lemon (32) Sleepiestpeep (46) vs. Bibliogryphon (21) Gooseberry Crumble (36) vs. Diego (23) Bentrovato (42) vs. livingbygrace (40) Good luck! Edit: Well, I do realize that there is one "interesting" match-up in there... but what can you do. We have quite a few people who won deadpools before in round one already. There was bound to be one shocker. 7 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am afraid to send mine in yet.. I will send it in and hours after there will be news of a person on their deathbed and everyone other then me will have them on their team and get a hit that I will miss 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
