DevonDeathTrip 2,335 Posted August 22, 2015 Assuming Denise Marshall gets her Guardian society section obit, this would put The Living End back on top of the DDP for the first time since....? ...2013! I'm not getting carried away though, as there's barely a mention of her sad passing outside the twitterverse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RadGuy 1,613 Posted September 5, 2015 Wow, Tommy Jay Survives isn't #1 anymore. Hasn't had a hit since April, though, so I'm not surprised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,249 Posted September 5, 2015 So, the best part of 4 months left, and there's 8 points separating the greatest ever player, the unstoppable force of the last few years, a newcomer giving it a damn good shot and unheralded (as of late) regulars slowly sneaking up on the chasing pack. They have left: DDT – Blazer, Crowe, Derby-Lewis, Dignam, Drummond (?), Gross, Clive J (think he’ll survive), Lee Kun Hee (issues?), Scullion, Frank van den Bleeken (not dying), Jacques Villeneuve Sr (back racing) TJS – Aherne (better), Crowe, Granger, Gross, Odjick, Beitzel, Bryan Murray, Sultan, Whitworth Spade – Crowe, Dignam, Granger, Kara, Kwouk, Boggs, Jock Scott, Zorreguieta, Travis (on mend), Van Den Bleeken (not dying), Shivdasani Star Dust – Aherne (better), Berkowitz, Fawkes, Graham, Granger, Odjick, Robbins, Sakamoto (recovering), Seselj, MT Moore, Willett Which suggests Blazer, Odjick, Kara, Jock Scott (and obit) are pivotal dying folk at this point.

Death Impends 7,807 Posted September 5, 2015 Odjick ain't going to be pivotal, all the way back in January he revealed his previous months to live prognosis was upgraded to about three years. TBH I'm surprised my lead lasted that long. especially given the continued lingering of my joker Crowe. I could still regain the lead should he go, but I suspect he's my only real hope of a further hit at this point, with Beitzel and Gross as maybes. Already described Odjick's situation, Granger and Murray are terminal but seem stable enough to last another four months, and the rest seem recovered from the maladies I chose them for. But for the time being, props to DDT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,249 Posted September 5, 2015 Pivotal in that Spade and DDT don't have him, whereas you did! But then you seem to be right he's going the slow route. It does look like its DDP's to lose now, especially with a number of teetering potentials. But you never know. All very intriguing, says this also ran.

gcreptile 10,736 Posted September 6, 2015 I wonder if this year someone is going to break 100 pts. The winner usually did. All the easy ways to do that lead through Martin Crowe's death. And with him, TJS is still a likely winner, mostly because I think that Christy Dignam is safe for 2015 (but not beyond), so that other teams need multiple hits to surpass him. Yes, there are cases like Leo Scullion or Ed Drummond, but then TJS still has Harry Beitzel. So in terms of probability, it's a wash. Golden Slumbers still has a chance, with Monty Brinson and Goran Hadzic (plus Martin Crowe). DQSP, Star Dust and Going Underground (and everyone else) are out, in my very personal opinion.

Spade_Cooley 9,364 Posted September 6, 2015 To be honest, since about February I've thought that my chances of winning the DDP this year would depend on one thing: the health of Catherine Wybourne. She's still holding out there, I think she'll make 2016. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
