Ok, leaderboard updated (call it last Saturday's list, late!).

 

The Dead Cow moves into 4th with his two uniques and Bibliogryphon slides into the top 20 with Hepton.

 

Hopefully be back to normal service if the hits keep coming.

The Unknown Man and Sir Creep are really taking the shaft so far in the first half.  Both below 20th position, yet have more hits than 10th place team.  Life isn't fair.  And death is even worse.
Drol is also in a similar position, though up the leaderboard a bit.

Applying the most liberal of interpretations to the rules surrounding obituaries (as is normal for this pool), I'll accept the reference to Richard Haag's death.

 

One team cultivates a fairly shoddy amount of points, but they are points nonetheless.

The new leaderboard above.

 

Death Impends maintains a lead despite no hits, due to his chunky Wildcard having been played some time ago. gcreptile is the biggest faller this time for not having Charlotte Rae in his team, most of the currently chasing pack did have her. Grigori and drol swap places. The Unknown Man, Torva Messor and Sir Creep move further up the field.

 

Enjoy!

Been looking over the stats for this Pool.

 

Now it appears to me that every single team submitted since the start of this on 1 January 2014 has survivors. It is also clear that I am by far and away the worst player of this game!

 

So, if you are interested in this sort of thing at all, here's a breakdown by playa (Playa!). I'm not giving the names of the survivors so you can have a cheeky pick if they live to the end of the year, you can trawl through the thread for that! I'm also not including this year, as it hasn't finished yet. All numbers are out of 25 picks.

 

Captain Chorizo:         (2014) 9 Survivors;  (2015) 7 Survivors;  (2016) 7 Survivors;  (2017) 14 Survivors.

Of course, if any playa would like the names of their own survivors by PM, ask away.

Nice work. Did some thread trawling for my own names just now. Jim Leavelle is my Hare's Forayesque perennial having been the only name I picked all five years.

Looking at my 2017 hare's team (which is a much better team than the 2018 squad), I think everyone on there will most likely be dead in about 5 years bar Odjick, who's probably safe for another decade at least...

One team can Think (Think!) about what might have been if Aretha had survived a little longer.

 

Is this the moment the Hare's Pool wakes up?

I’m somewhere near the bottom, yet two people who was on my squad last year have died now and they both died in the second half of the year too. This is not my year in the Hare’s pool. :D

I make it ten teams who score with Stefan Karl Stefansson.

 

Sadly, nine of those teams decided not to Wildcard him. Just in time for a leaderboard at the end of the week.

 

Hop to it!

Two teams, one Wildcard, and Dieter Thomas Heck scores just before the new leaderboard.

New track listing above. Turns out to be a bit of a mix tape!

 

Prophet wrests the lead away from Death Impends at last, thanks to a chunky Wildcard. John Key also sees a rise in his position for carding Stefansson. Torva Messor the only one to have two hits sees an appreciable gain on the leaders.

 

Captain Chorizo falls off the pace, with others having Stefansson essentially maintaining their position. Mid-placings shuffle around somewhat. Down at the bottom, Deathray sees a jump into a tie with Sean.

 

Literally anyone can still win this. The excitement continues into September.....

Many many teams' points score look a little more Presidential now that John McCain has died. Couple of teams Wildcarded him too.

 

Note in passing that some have gambled on a McCain double....hmmm.

 

Anyway, that will shake up the leaderboard again.
