You've got Shaun of the Dead (written as "Sean of the Dead" with a lot of folk who died in January) on the masterlist and @Sean on the masterlist. They're the same person. Absolutely sure you didn't send mpfc a January team sean? because if you did like me you'll have to stand by that. Reet So the deal is I DID have TWO teams in January and they're in. I put them into the masterlist at that point and left it. The PMs that sent them have been deleted because the PMs that populated the current list pushed my message space to 100% so I had to keep deleting to keep talking to the incoming entries. I've got a master file with all the teams entered Nov/Dec ripped and pasted. I guess if a mod could restore lost messages from January we could sort it.

Yeah, I'm seeing your point here so I do have the current team. Just knocking off here but I'm assuming tomorrow's to do list includes removing the team below. If a mod is looking in it might be useful - if possible - to restore my PMs from January so's I can share the teams then entered in the interests of keeping this transparent. Tbh as other dead pool compilers will tell you, there's a point it's all data to the extent you can miss one poster using two names in one year. Sean 1)Kathleen Blanco Joker 2)Simon Ricketts 3)Tim Conway 4)Jordan Dawes 5)Steffan Lewis 6)Barry Du Bois 7)Rex Garrod 8)Jeanne Little 9)John Hume 10)Olivia Newton John 11)Johnny Clegg 12)Denis Goldberg 13)Nobby Stiles 14)Beth Chapman 15)Leah Bracknell 16) Paul Dewar 17)Fernando Ricksen 18)John Andretti 19)Manohar Parrikar 20)John "Cocksy" Cocks Subs: 1)Marieke Vervoot 2)George Alagiah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regards, your post above (top of this page not quoted), I totally understand and sympathise this is just one of those things that happens when cunts like me and Sean do stupid stuff like submit a team on the 6th January or whenever it was.. This is absolutely not your doing maryport, it's mine and Seans for being way too eager to jump the gun. Bizarelly I have my PM from Jan still kicking about, but it's not my team that's the issue unfortunately. And changes of username are a PITA for any deadpool runner even in normal circumstances, don't fucking do it if you regularly play deadpools; on behalf of all of us who run them. Don't think you even need to do that between the team Sean entered in January and his more recent entry you could cobble a team together for him, substituting top of the table on his new list for the dead folk from his January list? As one of those partially to blame for this situation I've done most of the work for you if the solution above is ameniable. Survivors from Jan team in black, dead folk in red, new additions from December team in purple (excluding those who were on the Jan list. Remove sn from the masterlist and instate the purple folk for sd and it should be alright. Paul Alcock Kathryn Blanco Leah Bracknell Johnny Clegg Kirk Douglas George Fernandes Mark Gastineu Billy Graham Mazie Hirono Charles K Kao Steffan Lewis Vera Lynn John McCain Roberta McCain Sheila Mercier Liam Miller (presumably the footballer who died in February but is alive on masterlist) Stirling Moss Martin Peters Leslie Philips Fernando Ricksen Mark E Smith Nobby Stiles TotalBiscuit Morgan Tsvangairi Marieke Vervoot Ray Wilson Simon Ricketts Tim Conway Jordan Dawes That brings him up to a round 20 once you boot out the dead folk, if you still need subs after that then obviously: Barry Du Bois Rex Garrod Jean Little Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the interest of justifying the insanity, at least on my part the idea was that if they were known to be likely to die in January and still around in January the next year they'd be pretty good bets to cark it by then, as the clock must surely be running out at that point For maryports sanity I'll run the same experiment in a notepad document this year That remains to be tested. There was also the morbid curiousity of seeing how many picks actually made it to the starting line - which Sean expressed in the thread. That one we can answer. I submitted 20 + 10 subs, so 30 names in total and it appears 20 of them made the starting gun. Sean submitted 20 + 6 subs (going by above), so 26 names in total, and it appears 17 of them made the starting gun. I'm not sure what to make of that beyond I at least am a shit dead-pooler.
