The Unknown Man 584 Posted November 22, 2008 I found another bug on the Simfish InquilineKea. Everytime i click Billy Graham's name it redirects me to The Paul Newman page. It's supposed to redirect me the the Billy Graham page. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,977 Posted November 22, 2008 Looks like John Landeryou had been dead beforehand, ah well. Might as well just be more careful next time about living statuses of people. Technically, if you want, you can claim that you were selecting his son of the same name. I doubt he'll either die or get the required coverage, but it's better than going in with 9 members. Meanwhile, I continue to regret allowing MPFC's Theme Team in the game and, now that my life has returned to sucking, I remember why deadpooling is such an enjoyable distraction. Anyhow, site updated (finally). It was a rather large update this time, so if I missed something, particularly a hit, or made a mistake, let me know. I guess I can just go that way, haha. Yeah, better than 9 members and I can just kick him off next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canadian Paul 97 Posted December 18, 2008 Hockey player Hank Goldup has died shortly after turning 90. I've been a bit delayed with finals, food poisoning and traveling, but now I have ample free time, so I should update the site for Johnson, Cordero and Goldup tonight (my tonight) and the "I&P: The Names 2009" thread tomorrow.

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted December 18, 2008 ^ Sorry, that was me, miserably failing to be clever. I meant to say don't forget Patriarch Alexius as well, who was on my theme team. Nice to see you posting, CP. I thought you'd been sucked in to the vortex which claimed Tempus Fugit and Magere Hein and is doing it's best to take Lady Die and Football Fan from us.

Wouldn't have noticed that one... I'll be sure to include him too. Thanks, DDT. October and the first half of November I had personal stuff to deal with (nothing death related though) and the second half of November and the first half of December were school work. For the next month, however, I have been banished to the frozen wastelands of North Dakota, where I will have ample time to post useless information and unfunny jokes. And do some of that updating stuff as well. Also, since I don't want to post on the DL Chat thread, while I'm on it, whatever happened to DL chat? I stopped by a few times, but no one's ever 'round there no more. EDIT: Site now updated. As always, let me know if there are any mistakes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well done to all the teams involved; the Theme Team competition is shaping up to be a good one this season! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted December 29, 2008 the Theme Team competition is shaping up to be a good one this season! Agreed, I think your regret at allowing my team was a little premature. If nothing else, every one of my lot has proven their good genetic make up. I'd been considering a 'right stuff' line up next year comprising living VC recipients, but - as of today - there are only nine such people. Mebbe someone will get one this week in Afghanistan, or summat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the VC thing, 2 Farts and a Splash have had that Theme Team two years running and it certainly got them points. Anyhow, site updated to reflect the death of Bill Stone, so well done MPFC.

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted January 13, 2009 My mega-oldsters will doubtless fall at a slow and steady rate, which is - kind of - the point. After last year I wanted a team capable of performing well. When they go, their age and the penalties for famous for being famous put the brakes on the runaway success. Doubtless even best-selling author Harry Patch will be penalised that way. So, I'm confident of making it into the mix for the sprint finish, but that's about it. Some of this is an out and out lottery anyway, Eejit's stunning Deathrace score could hardly have been predicted. The whole premise of that deadpool is to reward the fastest carkers outright, so Susan Atkins, Dai Llewellyn and their ilk seemed to me to be the likely big players. Okay, Eejit had the world's oldest person and a WW1 vet, dependable carking types over the length of a year but would anyone have bet hard cash on them dying little more than a week apart at the very start?

Octopus of Odstock 2,197 Posted January 15, 2009 Site updated to reflect the death of Ricardo Montalban. Congrats to OoO, who is now in first place in the Theme Team category. To prove I've not completely shed my deadpooling hopes & dreams, I'm actually really chuffed about this - especially when I thought the theme team was somewhat watered down. I also vowed that anyone on my "Spanish" theme team would not be on the DDP, which is the only reason I didn't pick Montalban, who was struggling a lot in recent years. It would be nice to win this, especially as I run a deadpool that would be a bit... dodgy, shall we say, if I win? Hold on, didn't I win the theme team competition last year? If so, it's all since taking charge of the DDP. Interesting..... very interesting........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadian Paul 97 Posted January 30, 2009 I've been holding off on updating partially because I've been insanely busy, but also because I was waiting for a suitable obit for Angela Morley. I know I have to update for Tony Hart and Hall of Ghoster John Mortimer, but has anyone seen an obit for Morley that would satisfy the Ordinary Team requirements?
