gcreptile 10,963 Posted December 21, 2016 Also a reminder of dates when substitutes will be valid for those non-obit scoring deaths: Ilse Aichinger:11th February Anyone who has these picks will need to give me two names on or after the given date if a QO doesn`t come from.Both new names have to be in the generation you assigned non-scoring picks. Well, I hope Jacques Chirac makes it that long. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Mad Hatter 1,092 Posted January 4, 2017 Looks like only Morbidkid had Heimlich. Is his team valid yet? Morbidkid is still in the game but unless he changes his list to include 60 valid picks he will never win.What are you talking about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted January 10, 2017 Can you not just disqualify him for being stupid?Tempting.just let it be man. No big deal I'm only off by a couple of years. You do understand that by entering an ineligible team you might as well have not entered the team in the first place; it's hardly the most research intensive of deadpools (there's no looking up how many worldwide singles they've sold, correlating that with google results and checking how many snooker matches they've played; there's no trying to find out what position players from the nineteen twenties would correlate to in a modern 11, there's no need to scour the local news for beyond your cancer mum picks). So how about just checking people's birthdates on Wikipedia? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some people would classify downie,brackneil and Christie as baby boomers anyway.While that may be true, Sean did class those years in the beginning in what category each person is eligible so you should follow them. Oh, and Brady would never be a boomer anyways cause he was born before world war 2. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
