CaptainChorizo 1,977 Posted July 2, 2017 Seems I passed up on a few too many dead certs,thinking they would cark it in Jan-Feb. Stefanson could still salvage my score though by going in the fall or Nov.-Dec. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I thought SKS would be a decent November-December pick (and thus good money on the Hares Pool) but when pancreatic cancer decides to stick the knife in, you're done, pretty much.

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted July 2, 2017 Gord Downie would be a pretty big update as well. I'm just hoping for the people who are on less teams to cark it so I can have a stronger lead... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted July 3, 2017 Pete Frates becomes the 4th of my Pete's to peter out and my 8th hit overall, whilst Tobin and Sutcliffe live on. Puts me top of the leaderboard, I believe.

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted August 12, 2017 Not gonna lie, it feels a lot more tense now than it did 2 months ago. At the moment, I'm currently leading by 300 points, and I could expand it more, as I have a certain amount of totterers on my team who could go at any moment. However, I recognize that the other teams behind me also have totterers that could go and take my lead away at any moment. Sir Creep in particular I'm worried about at the moment, because his joker could push me out of the lead at some point. I stand by my belief that while I probably will be in the top 5 in the end, I don't think I'll become the eventual winner. But nonetheless, I know that this'll be an amazing performance in my debut year, especially since my team was kind of half assed to begin with... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
