RadGuy 1,605 Posted March 24, 2016 If Eesti is right about Marks, James, and Ali, and I'll add Bush who I'm fairly certain will die this year, there's a good chance I'll reach 72 points. Not bad for my first year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,044 Posted March 25, 2016 It's terribly disappointing, I have 11 that's right ELEVEN hits on my Shadow List before Easter, but only 5 in DDP. And maybe 6 elsewhere. I had the right names but didn't put enough stock into those I thought had a fighting chance for 2017 and instead bought into I don't know what for 2016 names. Just mad at myself *kicks the dirt*SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptainChorizo 1,932 Posted March 28, 2016 At the rate things are going it looks like the record for amount of hits in a year will be broken which would be pretty impressive with the removal of non english bbc and yahoo disqualifiers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was up a few days before it disappeared.

I'll start my new round up shortly, but I'd just like to purr over one of my teams having points for a second. It doesn't work out like that. Each update using the hta overwrites the information from the database, in which they are all there present and correct. Still it's strange that it doesn't pick up any of the picks/teams even the ones chosen before. What I'll have to do is isolate the new picks, test if the old ones come up and then add the new ones again. But the method is the same as when I add information to the other letters so I'm puzzled as to where the problem is... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 19,975 Posted March 29, 2016 Aha, I have no idea what that means, but good luck with that. Again, I'm being a complete pain, but Adrienne Corri died on the 13th, so there should be an extra pointage for her. Edit: actually I think you've awarded it in the scoreboard, just not on the front page. Apologies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,061 Posted March 31, 2016 Well done to Death Impends for breaching the 100 point ceiling, I know its been one of their aims for a while! As for me, it would really help if Eesti could re-evaluate their team in here and claim that Keith Farnham, Howard Marks and Joost van der Westhuizen have "15% or lower chances to die in 2016" - so far, their evaluations have worked a treat as a jinx to aide my team! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,626 Posted March 31, 2016 Aye, after coming one point short in my debut year that milestone has been reached at long last. Also - surely DDT has to have shattered the most points in a month record? By my reckoning, Plowright, Crowe, Feek joker, Davies, Ford, and Travis add up to 64 points.
