msc 18,476 Posted January 12, 2018 The Deathlist Cup needs immediate winners and losers to get the next Round going immediately ala a Cup, and is run by a very anti-social and grumpy Scot, so the general response would be "ain't that a shame" just like if someones pick dies on the 31st but we don't find out till the 4th and they've been eliminated already. Chalk it up to incompetent refs like that N Ireland/Swiss penalty or the Arsenal/Sheff United semifinal from a few years back. I'm chilled as long as no one does a Morbid Kid. Hell, I am hoping the random draw brings up Joey v Grim II and I think the public want to see Death Impends v The Dead Cow II (and DDT v Spade) but of course, the draw is entirely random. Anyhow, enough of trailers for a completely different game, when the Deathrace is heating up nicely here, and seemingly earlier than usual too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Up North 3,726 Posted January 12, 2018 Looks like it will be over before the first round of The Cup draw so your trailer is well placed for those current none entrants whose death lists are under utilised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,979 Posted January 12, 2018 As the first Cup round was about to end, I gave him a week ban for unrelated reasons. His ban happened to coincide with the Cup submission period. Because of this, he wasn't able to submit a team. Once he got back from his ban, he threw a tantrum and lobbed personal insults and death threats at msc and his kids. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,476 Posted January 12, 2018 I was quite sympathetic to his plight until then, but on topic actually, this meant Maryport got to advance to face Spade! Ok, not so much of a reward there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could just be some fantasy. It WAS fantasy when the Star reported her dead With David Cassidy the multiple organ failure was something of a foregone conclusion so the sites already pronouncing death were just being a bit over-efficient. There's likely some hope when a previously healthy young woman survives the removal of life support. Who knows, we might still be death racing in February.
