maryportfuncity 10,630 Posted January 2, 2009 DEATHRACE 2009: THE RULES 1 – The object of the Deathrace is to be the first contestant to reach 2009 points. 2 – To enter the Deathrace a contestant must have A: A valid and current DDP team. B: Status as a member of the Deathlist (i.e. be at least a Pointless Ranter and at most Sad W**ker) Or…..successfully argue a case to MPFC for entry without the above. 3 – Entries are open until midnight on January 7th. A team will be deemed to have entered when they post a full DDP team and the name of the team as displayed on the DDP on the Deathrace thread on the Deathlist. 4 – Players score points every time a team member dies and accrues an obit (see point 9). The score for each death amounts to 1 point for every complete calendar day of 2009 remaining after the death of said team member. So, a death on January 1st scores 364 points, a death on January 2nd scores 363 points etc. 5 – Jokers score double the normal points in point 4 above. 6 – The winner is the first player to reach or exceed 2009 points. 7 – In the event that a single death pushes more than one player beyond the victory score the winner will be deemed to be the player with the highest overall score. 8 – In the event that a single death pushes more than one player beyond the victory score and a tie remains between the winners, a sudden death play-off will ensue between all potential winners. 8a – The sudden death play off involves all possible winners waiting until one player scores another death of a team member. Said player will then be declared the winner. The sudden death play off will continue until a single clear winner emerges. 9 - For the purposes of the Deathrace the same rules about eligibility of team members apply as apply in the DDP, which is obvious anyway cos you can only enter DDP teams. 10 – ‘Obit’ in the context of the Deathrace means any report from a reliable news source in English. In this context the following are admissable: ‘Newspaper obits, national newspaper reports, local newspaper reports, coverage in trade journals or similar specialist publications. In all cases evidence online from these sources is sufficient to count for an ‘obit’ for scoring purposes. In the event of a debate about a ‘reliable news source’ MPFC’s decision is final. But he is very reasonable and quite likely to award points to the lowest hanging fruit. 11 – To qualify for points all team members must be alive on January 1st 2009. 12 – Any death between January 1st and January 7th of a team member entered in the Deathrace will count for point-scoring purposes. 13 – If any team is found to have used Deathlist editing options to subtly change the line up of their squad instant disqualification without appeal will follow and MPFC will not be held responsible for any abuse heaped upon said cheat by other posters. 14 – The winner will receive a prize as follows: A: Should the winner attend the next Dlcon MPFC will personally offer a single measure of an alcoholic drink of choice (beer/wine or spirit) along with much back patting and hearty congratulations. B: If A is not possible MPFC will offer an item from his extensive collection of duplicate Carlisle United merchandise kindly donated by relatives who forget he already owns said books, scarves or pork pie hat. C: If option B proves unattractive MPFC may be suggestible, via PMs, to offer summat more suitable. Other General Stuff The masterlist will be updated at least every ten days and a scoreboard will appear until such time as a winner is declared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,630 Posted January 2, 2009 Complicated! Dead easy really. Incidentally, Eejit indicated his enthusiasm but hasn't yet posted his team. I've taken the liberty of adding it with Thatcher and without Bevel. Of those already entered he has the lead since the crumbly Maria de Jesus has just netted him 363 points.

Vinegar Tits 605 Posted January 2, 2009 Are we allowed to enter our DDP teams even if one of them has just died? Or am I going to have to choose a replacement for Maria de Jesus? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,630 Posted January 2, 2009 Vinegar tits, note rules 11 and 12: 11 – To qualify for points all team members must be alive on January 1st 2009. 12 – Any death between January 1st and January 15th of a team member entered in the Deathrace will count for point-scoring purposes. You'll be more than a sixth of the way to a winning score if you enter. Joint top with Eejit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,630 Posted January 3, 2009 How do you plan to represent the scores as they happen? Just wondered, like. You could end up with mucky millions of quite a few teams on here on page after page. I'll rip down the rules as the first post, replace it with a scoreboard at the top and team list, followed by the masterlist. And repost the rules further down the thread on January 16th. So if you want to check on progress, just go to the first post on the first page and read the first thing on it. Simple really! I'm guessing we'll have a winner by Easter or thereabouts, that's banking on the likes of Atkins and Llewellyn paying out with 600+ points per joker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
