rockhopper penguin 2,265 Posted January 21, 2017 At the moment, we're at 6 entries, but I can confirm not a single person appears on everyone teams at this point and time. I can confirm that no one has asked me about the unrevealed bonuses, so everyone's playing cricket. Cat, what are the unrevealed bonuses? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 21, 2017 Pedro needs another joker from his original list to replace the now ineligible Paul Briggs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 22, 2017 Lisa Brown is now ineligible, but unlike Jimmy Snuka and Paul Briggs, no one selected her. Probably because she's not going to obit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 22, 2017 Wondering if I should do a team, but have it completely randomly generated? Maybe? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 22, 2017 Mark Sims is now ineligible for selection. Unlike Lisa Brown, Mark Sims was selected by 4 people. Now for Shaun, this not only means that Shaun needs two subs, but he also needs to nominate another joker from his 50. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 23, 2017 I've decided to randomize a team, but do you guys think this should be allowed to compete? Here's the team that was completely randomized: Skellern, Peter Tyler Moore, Mary JOKER Lakovic, Sasha Pomsel, Brunhilde Bennett, Tony JOKER Abdullah II of Jordan, King Greaves, Jimmy Toksvig, Sandi Hawking, Stephen Vervoort, Marieke Douglas, Kirk West, Kanye Dole, Bob Finney, Albert Scales, Prunella Parker, Nathaniel De Havilland, Olivia Loren, Sophia Tezuka, Katsumi Benedict XVI, Pope Emeritus Donleavy, J.P. Ford, Doug Dillard, Harrison Hewlett, Steve Domino, Fats Magill, Lisa Quaid, Randy Kilmer, Val Abdeslam, Salah St John, Ian JOKER Thiebaud, Wayne Corey, Professor Irwin Kamprad, Ingvar Bracknell, Leah Fabray, Nanette Fawkes, Helen Adams, Colette Mugabe, Robert Cole, Richard Kennedy, Ethel Barber, Bob Emin, Tracy JOKER Harris, Rolf Rockefeller, David Hollingsworth, Mike MacFarlene, Norman Fleetwood, Mick Ricketts, Simon Dodd, Ken Boles, Nicky JOKER 5 subs in case these go: Walker, Clint Sawyer, Connie Chirac, Jacques Watson-Challis, Mike Ingham, Bernard Not sure how good or bad it is being completely randomized. I see some dead certs but most are random old people from what I can see. The joker's were randomized as well (I took the first 5 numbers from the random number generator. I might use it as a shadow team if declined though. Your choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,068 Posted January 23, 2017 I'm ok with it as the undisclosed bonuses are safely with Cat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 24, 2017 Alright. I added my randomized list to the master list, but it still feels small with 8 competitors. Hopefully a few more will decide to join. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 24, 2017 McGiffin is now ineligible for selection, which means Shaun now needs to find 3 new subs and a joker. A warning to Shaun, you are at risk of potentially losing points if you don't sub in by the end of the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 24, 2017 Unless Shaun replaces his subs and joker, his score will start up at -4, -3 for all the subs not subbed in plus an extra negative point for a joker he hasn't replaced. You can still gain those points back by Friday though, so it's not permanent until then. So the second leaderboard currently looks like this: 1=, Everyone else on Planet earth 0 2nd, Youngwilz -2 3rd, Shaun of the Dead -4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 25, 2017 Anyone who is planning to enter, there is currently less than 3 days left in the entry period before the official game starts. This means that after it strikes midnight GMT on the 28th of January, no more entries will be allowed. There are already some people with strong teams, so those wondering if they have strong opponents will be happy to know that there are. (Although Shaun can still sub out his people and nominate a new joker, here, or PM, I'm kind of making an assumption that he won't, so prove me wrong Shaun.)

CastAway 488 Posted January 25, 2017 I'll probably put in my team in another day or so - waiting to see if the list of possibilities is cut down even more over the next 24-30 hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 25, 2017 Guess I need to promote my first sub, Burt Reynolds, for McGiffin please Joey You actually got two subs promoted because of Briggs death, so Randi is also promoted. Time to cross out MTM, and hopefully no more deaths from that list till the end of the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted January 26, 2017 You have less than 2 days to enter. Personally, I'm hoping for at least 15 participants, so there could be some strong competition between the other teams entered so far. We have ten, so it'd still be a competition, but not as fun, so I'm wondering who I can count on to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,480 Posted January 26, 2017 I've entered, even though I don't understand the rules. Though seemingly half my team have died since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
