The offer is open that if he is struggling with time then I will run based on his category choices but I will put a team in. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,209 Posted January 11, 2018 It would be good to have the categories confirmed, along with a start date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,142 Posted January 19, 2018 Shall we just get this moving? If RA wants to jump back in, I'm sure he will, but this grand little pool is in danger of dying a death... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,614 Posted January 22, 2018 @Rotten Ali I hope you don't mind but if I do not hear from you before the end of the month I will open entries based on those already discussed and the actual start date will be 01st March 2018. I will admin and I hope YW will be looking over my shoulder. I realise people are busy and it was probably a bit mean to expect them to run the pool but the prize is to send everyone scrying into your topics of choice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,512 Posted January 22, 2018 Perhaps that might be a better way of running it, Biblio? The winner gives you 5 topics for the new one, you over see the competition but obviously take part in games you didn't chose? And someone - is it always YWillz? Must be his trustworthy Adric avatar - can keep your team safe ahead of launch? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,614 Posted January 22, 2018 The reason I didn't enter the first one was because I wanted there to be a real winner. I did not intend it as a precedent and would happily accept a team from RA. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,142 Posted January 22, 2018 I'm beginning to wonder about Adric...my teams in the various pools seem to crash and burn just like he did! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If none of us could beat you, that's not your fault! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though imagine the humiliation of picking areas of expertise like Doctor Who, House of Lords and cricket and being crushed into the ground by an American poster who had spent 15 minutes on Wiki. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
