Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 19, 2014 I'd quite like to submit my team by fax, but I can't find a number on the site. I'm still revaluating my options. I'm thinking core forty or so and the top twenty goes in. Cold as ice. How soon DDT? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dan Posted December 22, 2014 Thanks. Have you considered NME.com and chortle.co.uk as viable sources for more specialist music and comedy obits respectively? Apologies if this is a perennial question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,233 Posted December 24, 2014 How about this interesting idea for the scoring system. I noted you have a bit listing dates in which no candidate has died: 29th February 8th October 26th October 30th October 21st December 28th December How about you award an extra point to any team which selects a candidate who dies on those dates? Quite random like the 'party pooper' bonus. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,476 Posted December 27, 2014 Pan Breed's 4th attempt is in the mail. Will it be another year of "also-ran" or a better than average attempt? Almost certainly the former! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted December 28, 2014 I've decided on my two themes, naturally won't reveal them until January. My main team was fully written up to send last night, until the computer shut itself down and I didn't utilise the save draft function. Edit: 2 ready just got to do the most research intensive one.

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted December 30, 2014 Sorry, posted in the 2014 thread by mistake, two teams gone to the ddp2015 email - couldn't do it via the site because my upgraded software is still struggling, especially where interfacing with a site expecting Outlook to start automatically is concerned. But the teams are with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Vyrdolak Posted December 31, 2014 I put off making my list until far too late last year and then completely forgot with all the New Years Eve festivities [/sarc], but I made up for it this year with my return for a 16th (non-consecutive) year and two theme teams. My main list is composed of entirely unique names (going by the 2014 DDP at least), not counting alternates. I made my preliminary list several months ago so it would be less painful this year.

Rotten Ali 600 Posted December 31, 2014 Two completely sexist teams in as of yesterday. Main team features only guys, theme team is only women. May the battle of the sexes commence... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
