DeathImpends still leads, but he doesn't necessarily have it in the bag with gcreptile keeping up.

 

On the opposite side of the scoreboard, mr.whit leap-frogs Bibliogryphon, but with excellent picks like Clive James and Fernando Ricksen on Biblio's team, a mid-table December comeback would not surprise me.

Assuming Timerman gets the QO, all 5 of my swap ins will have scored me points. A first?

Final update as the competition is closing right when I post this - 00:00, 1 January 2019 (GMT).


I honestly thought for a while we might not get any hits at all in December, but after Christmas the Reaper decided it's the perfect time for carnage.

No leaderboard changes however, DeathImpends remains on top. In fact, his lead grew thanks to Simon Ricketts.


So, officially:

DeathImpends wins Death By Numbers 2018!

:party::clap:


This is it - I am signing off as host. Thank you all for competing. Now, I pass the baton to gcreptile...

With the hard cut off - let me say, congratulations DI! Stellar performance, the 5/5 of the replacements might have done it, as I only had 3/5.

:) It was a game well played. Well done to Reptile as well for the close competition - kept it within a one-hit striking distance until the very final days of the year.
