(not paying much attention to theme teams) (109) Predictor (Predictor's Predictions) Probably the most uncreative team name in the history of the game. Had a different name in my first DDP season (Friday the 2013th) that only worked in that particular year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,233 Posted January 3, 2020 Alex Salmond’s dad was a legitimate pick: the more of that scum we irradiate the better for everyone. The other two were for competitive edge when I was young and impressionable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An Fear Beag 1,512 Posted January 4, 2020 Congratulations DI on a fantastic victory - never in doubt for the last few months. We were all playing for the minor places. Well done Dr.T for a valiant defence of the title. I'm pretty chuffed with my 3rd place finish- very much beginners luck. I suspect though that I will spend the next 10 years fruitlessly trying to match it. Thanks Spade for hosting - I can only begin to imagine the amount of work that went into it. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr_T 254 Posted January 6, 2020 Sorry for being a little slow but heartiest congratulations to Death Impends for his long overdue win. As has been said by many others, it never looked in doubt. Well done! Thanks again to Spade Cooley for all his hard work to keep it going and welcome back to the fold. I look forward to seeing what poor unfortunates comprise David Quantick's Showbiz Pals....a list who no-one would ever want to make. Good luck to all of 2020's competitors and good luck to all of those who have been selected (perhaps I should say most as I am sure there are 1 or 2 whose deaths won't sadden me). I'll take my seat in the grandstand and watch you all battle it out. Cheers Dr_T 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
