YoungWillz 21,044 Posted December 28, 2016 Just a friendly reminder that time is running out for submissions for next year. I say this because I will be going out on Hogmanay and therefore won't be around here to check entries. Now as you know, the site is posting a few minutes ahead but I'm unsure of the exact number of minutes, so only entries posted or PM'ed to me by the deadline as per the site clock will be counted. Of course, I don't expect entrants to wait until the very last minute ffs, enjoy the season please! Have a drink. Go on.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,044 Posted December 29, 2016 Whoaml, the curse of submitting a team to the Hare's Pool claims another victim with the death of Debbie Reynolds. Your first sub has been promoted. What did I say about celebrity genocide? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhoamI 35 Posted December 29, 2016 Whoaml, the curse of submitting a team to the Hare's Pool claims another victim with the death of Debbie Reynolds. Your first sub has been promoted. What did I say about celebrity genocide? And I was thinking she was a certainty, but she just could not hold on till the New Year..... bugger!! Actually liked her films also, so double bugger.....

RadGuy 1,614 Posted December 30, 2016 Of course, I don't expect entrants to wait until the very last minute ffs, enjoy the season please! Have a drink. Go on.... Well, I already submitted my team, but I feel like most deadpoolers are introverts anyway who spend NYE at home on Deathlist using the chatbox or just checking the new list out. Including myself, and I'm damn fine with it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,044 Posted December 30, 2016 Ha ha, well I have a few more entries so we are already rivalling last year's number of entrants. Notable people still to submit include MPFC, Book, Rotten Ali, Sir Creep, Switch and Morbidkid, but there's still time and anybody else can submit a team. Hopefully, the new caretaker (that's me) will be upon deaths like a vulture on carrion, though if you pick an obscure personage, be aware you mght have to notify me of the news source obit in due course. Already I've probably had to look up 30 names or more to confirm their eligibility, but everyone has been very good so far. I'll never be a patch on TMIB though.... Masterlist will be posted on 1 January at some point, with reserves and reserves will be deleted after a week once it's apparent all team members are alive as at the opening of the competition.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 1, 2017 Not so much lazy, but after last year I don't understand why I should turn in different teams to DDP (20 names) and Hare's (25 names) so I just added the 'next best five names and wa-lah! I really didn't have the balls to put my conjoined twins in DDP when they really aren't ill. But a perfect landing place for Hare's! And look, my dumb ass didn't forget Glen Campbell this time!
