Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 31, 2018 LOL so I'm working on the difference in the type of person I post here and in Deathrace 2019. LOL I can't come up with that many stories. Well yes I can, but.... This seems a better place to have dropped Roger Ethegaray.BTW Advent starts on Dec 2, not sure (other than easier to remember) why the competition starts on Dec 1.

A few days of research later I knew he was on the mend and getting funding to remain so. Don't be duped by Lang (this means he will have a funeral inside a fortnight).

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 31, 2018 Slam Guide #12: José de Jesús Horacio Pimiento Rodríguez What's small and red and fits inside an olive? A pimento, you are correct! What a bit larger and red and fits inside a casket? Pimiento. Pimiento Rodriguez. Cardinal Pimiento Rodriguez.P-Rod, as the other cardinals call him, is the oldest living Catholic cardinal at 99 years and 285 days, give or take, when Advent Avalanche launches. Will he make to to the century mark, or will he urn you a podium in AA19? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,979 Posted November 17, 2018 It's getting closer. Slam Guide #13: Michael Schumacher The seven-time Formula One world champion has been invisible since his heavy skiing accident in 2013. Nobody knows how bad it really was, but it apparently must have been extremely bad. How much longer can that body last? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted November 26, 2018 Slam Guide #16 and #17: Sir Arthur Richard Jolly - or - Ian Martin It is a FACT that the recipient of the Sir Brian Urquhart Award drops over dead 5 years after receiving said award. Well at least that was the case for the first recipient (2011), one Dame Margaret Antsee. So it is a bit difficult to figure out the Reaper's pattern on this one with only one data point, but we are learned folk and accustomed to the Reaper's ways on these matters, so let's give it a go. 1) Maybe the second recipient will die SIX years after receiving the award...and so on. This would put Sir Arthur Richard Jolly (2012 winner) in the cross-hairs. 2) Maybe the '5 years' pattern holds true, and the Reaper is skipping every other year, so Ian Martin (2013 winner) is the target. It's a game of skill as much as luck. Pick the right SBUA winner, and you too will have an award! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,228 Posted November 26, 2018 Slam Guide #18: Ion Iliescu It's an undeniable fact that 50% of the previous Advent Avalanche hits has been a former Romanian head of state, so maybe picking Iliescu will take you to victory... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted November 28, 2018 Well -- dammitall. Back to the drawing board. it's amazing how much time I'm wasting trying to find a winner this year. For nowt most certain....
