1st points on the board and 2017 is days away yet.

 

Yuletide Wave Points for RadGuy. With the death of Carrie Fisher. Double standard points 40 basic times 2, unique points 16 x 2, thus 112 points and he brings in Colin Meads above Valery Spindinov. Everyone who has entered a team so far gets micro points in descending order to mark the fact that they are on the ball.

 

1st Leader Board 2017

 

1st - 112.9 points - RadGuy

2nd - 1.2 points - Bibliogryphon

3rd - 1.1 points - Young Willz

4th - 1.0 points - JoeyRuss

5th - 0.8 points - Captain Chorizo

6th - 0.7 points - Jiroemon Kimura

7th - 0.6 points - The Unknown Man

8th - 0.5 points - The Dead Cow

9th - 0.4 points - Prosperina

10th - 0.3 points - I'mNotHades

11th - 0.2 points - DeathImpends

12th - 0.1 point - Rotten Ali

 

Last everyone else on planet earth.

You should be deducting the exact same amount of points awarded from him plus 20 more for taking the piss.

Picking Carrie Fisher wasn't even shooting fish in a barrel it was opportunistic bell ending at its finest.

Well hey who am I to argue with the host Rotten Ali :D

 

Also, I had no idea there would be points for a death of someone before the starting line. Pleasant surprise.

Aye, but it does leave it open to a last minute tweaking of a team as soon as someone is announced as on life support with family being gathered.

Fair point, but you'd get ONE chance at that on the DR and everyone else entering at the last minute would be equal on that. Little Jimmy Dickens - for example - suddenly became a major figure in everyone's appreciation of country music ahead of a few dead pools.

Sorry guys. My bad maths here. Going to make a correction. But, of the 12 teams at this point RadGuy was the only one to place Carrie Fisher in the HPDP team and show the hand being played. In fact the option remains that teams only need be submitted in an Intstant Message and won't be published till the 1st January at the earliest. And in post 1112 on page 56 12th of December I had eluded to be starting the game early with double scores. However I did say double BONUS points, not doulble basic points. So it's only the 40 basic points plus (40 divided by 5) = 8. Times 2 for unique. Times 2 for doulble bonus points, thus still 32 bonus points and listing as 72.9 points not 112.9. Sorry...

More points on the 2017 board.

Yuletide Wave Points for msc. With the death of Alvarez on the following day after being picked. Standard points being 45 no unique points because RadGuy had him too and picks up 40 basic points and a micro point. So after all that mishap about removing 40 points you get them back a few days later. Everyone who has entered a team to date gets an extra micro point or two to mark the fact that we are truly off and running.

I listened to the "he should make 2017" talk in the Political Frailty thread. I'll accept those points, however! B)

Hmm, Allman has tour dates up to 19 Oct - somebody thinks him fit and insurable.
