Strike my earlier post....the Misers will be second Wrong, you're third! Darn it... but its still the highest that I've been. Now starts the fall down in the standings until I end up 12th or 15th.

Predictor 1,018 Posted May 17, 2014 Still 0 hits for my theme team. Just proves that attractive ladies live longer, hah. Anyway, I have a few questions about the DDP website for my theme team. 1. The team is described as "Team of actresses that are alright in their day..." But shouldn't the "are" be replaced with "were" since it's the past we're talking about? 2.Why is Mildred Kornman only described as a child actress? She was equally famous as supermodel Ricki VanDusen. 3. Why not have a picture of when Lauren Bacall was young rather than old? 4. The Mary Carlisle picture is way too blurry, don't you think?

Christ man, those are some really fine WHINES you've brought up from your cellar there....... By the way, what's the password to your secret page? Can you tell me over PM since I'm one of your bestest buds here? Well I like to think so anyway. I've tried "predictor" and "predictorsucks" and it didn't get anywhere.

That's the usual grammatical error that can be corrected. 2. Whoever did the celeb description probably didn't know or care about that fact. 3. Choosing celeb pictures is at the discretion of whoever has the responsibility of doing it. There's no set rule to how young or old or how recent the picture is. There are other teams who pick celebs and would be content with how they are represented or don't care. 4. Of course there are more obscure picks of which pics are hard to come by. Any alternatives that are significantly better are to be welcomed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phantom 2,533 Posted May 25, 2014 Hope you're able to fix the issue. I'm curious as to how 3 teams got 10 points each for Jack Brabham when he'd only be worth 6 points if the team that had him as their joker got 12 points for him. Also only 3 teams in total picked him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

themaninblack 2,112 Posted May 26, 2014 Oh no..... Hope you've got a back-up! Oh no..... Hope you've got a back-up! The problem's not so much with the hard drive but with the internet connection. My fault, I decided to reinstall my OS as the old thing was running a bit slow. Since then I find it difficult connecting to the internet through my wireless adapter. Keeps saying the DNS is not responding. Switched suppliers (3 mobile to BT WiFi) and it worked for a week until the same DNS server problem came up again. I'm only communicating now through my tablet... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
