Toast 15,973 Posted December 9, 2018 I'm considering submitting a theme team called "People That Normal People Have Actually Heard Of". 3 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,510 Posted December 9, 2018 An immense undertaking - as always I salute your insanity and willingness as I busily compile the masterlist for the modest Deathrace (currenly comprised of picks from three teams) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markb4 874 Posted December 9, 2018 I hope to try this this year! I didn't know everybody can send up to three teams for submission. So that can be 60 different people? Whoa! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,182 Posted December 9, 2018 The theme team of Peace, Drugs, and Death have been submitted to the DDP for the second year in a row. Some minor adjustments as Joan Baez, Jane Fonda, and Gloria Steinem replaces Peter Coyote, Todd Gitlin, and Mark Rudd, but otherwise it’s the same as last year. Will be wondering if my theme team will get the big fat 0 for the third time in a row next year... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Hemlock 720 Posted December 10, 2018 I don’t post on here very often but I have already submitted my regular squad and theme team for 2019. I am currently tied for 58th place in 2018 which would be my best ever showing. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baez was never that bad a druggie, she might well see some youngers pretenders out of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,416 Posted December 10, 2018 Entries are coming in at a nice speed. Nothing to match the weirdness of last year when Pat Cooper was in two of the first three teams submitted and none of the remaining 500. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,445 Posted December 10, 2018 My three teams have gone in for usual mid table mediocrity. Might have almost made the Theme team top 10 this year but David Fisher didn't obit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,416 Posted December 10, 2018 As with last year, I've submitted my sole entry, a theme team, early and posted it here so nobody accuses me of cheating. Passing (a team of trans, genderfluid et al individuals) Genesis P-Orridge Kate Bornstein April Ashley Christine Hallquist Renee Richards Rachel Pollack Poppy Z.

I'd have made second in the Theme Team last year had old Cyril Frankel got his obit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadGuy 1,614 Posted December 10, 2018 Submitted my NFL theme team Traded to the Saints and my Z-team Belmont-Cragin Reaper yesterday afternoon, and already got confirmation this morning. Thanks Spade! Z-Team: a shitty team, way worse than a B-Team, consisting of names I want to protect from the List of the Missed, some of my 2018 theme team survivors, etc. There - I invented a new word for the DDP vocabulary! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,182 Posted December 10, 2018 I tried to ask Spade an important question via PM and it’s full as of right now? Is it possible for you to clear some of your messages? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 20,808 Posted December 11, 2018 How on earth are people submitting so early? I get the feeling I've left my last minute research to...well..the last minute. And there's 20 days to go. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
