The 2019 Deathlist Cup

Is the tie break between me and Biblio decided? Do I need to put a team in or not?

 

 

I wont lie to you. Bibliogryphon has won the coin toss.

 

But there's always "death announced in the next 80 mins" twist ending in case you want to send a team in anyhow.

ah fuck, the team was so weak I cant see a death in 80 years let alone minutes!

 

Best of Luck Biblio!

 

Ill be back next year, full of revenge and a well researched team. I had a few cheeky names to chuck in this time...

OK... this is how the coin tosses looked. Explaining early due to situation (and I already said one result above)

 

3 coin tosses

 

Master Tech v Bibliogryphon (Heads)

-          Heads. Biblio leads 1-0

-          Tails. 1-1

-          Tails. 2-1 Tech

-          Heads 2-2 Biblio

-          Heads

-          Bibliogryphon wins 3-2 on penalties.

 

 

Yorkshire Banker vs Skinny Kiltrunner (Heads)

-          Tails. 1-0 Banker

-          Heads. 1-1

-          Tails. 2-1 Banker

-          Heads. 2-2

-          Tails

-          Yorkshire Banker wins 3-2 on penalties

 

 

JoeMoneyPenny vs Pedro (Heads)

-          Heads. 1-0 Pedro

-          Heads. 2-0 Pedro

-          Tails. 2-1

-          Tails 2-2

-          Tails

-          JoeMoneyPenny wins 3-2 on penalties.

 

 

What did Pedro do to curse all money against him? 0 for 2 in the coin toss.

HOWEVER, nothing has been heard from Joe since January, and he's not looked at my PM reminders.

So, while hes more than welcome to add in a late late team here, AS IT STANDS, Pedro will move into Round 2 as a lucky loser, and will face Young Willz.

 

 

Almost certainly secured a last minute winner somewhere now, but this forum gets grumpy when I try and post everything at midnight...

Spent a while choosing between Donbavand, Starling or Hammer trying to decide which to joker - looking at list I can't have been alone.

 

Must have read the same article about Starling and Hammer about 5 times hoping some new clue would spring out of the page at me.

 

Good luck Captain Chorizo - looks like a good match up. Quintana totally off radar for me.

#KiwiGrudgeMatch is on

 

Some duplicates, so let's eliminate:

 

John Key (Bracknell, Mugabe, Vervoort, Kerslake, Chapman*, Kumar, Blanco, Quinn, James, Buydens, Ricksen)

Vs Heef (Hammer, Kerslake, Harris, Ricksen, Starling*, Trintignant, Blanco, Tin, Okoth, Miller, Nugroho)

 

Chapman as a unique and joker is a big point of difference.

 

There's some big names in Key's list, and if any of them drop off then it'll make a huge difference to the outcome.

Very VERY impressed four people found Chng Seok Tin.  Saddened a bit, but I see the names who found her and expect nothing but solid picks so not shocked.

Always love when 8+ people have a band I don’t.  ‘How did I miss that person?’

I think she'll see out the month anyway. The only two of mine I have reasonably high expectations of are Hammer and Starling. I think Tin, Okoth, Miller and Nugroho will probably be in the 3-6 months bucket. Okoth maybe more.

Since we are bearing our souls, I missed Starling altogether, and like you feel re Chng, I feel re Hammer.  I’ll check in on her for April lol

I don't understand how this Destinee McEwen chick is an acceptable pick by any means. I don't understand this singing claim to fame. No offence to SC, if anything props on somehow getting this through, but it's ridiculous how she's accepted, but Flores isn't because "it's not confirmed" even though she's clearly old as fuck and has claim to fame for being old as fuck.

Well, as I picked Chng too, I won't be too disappointed if you're the one who's right about her prospects.

 

I see Spade has picked Chiemi Hori. I rejected her on a similar premise as I was dubious about Chng. I guess I'll find out in time whether I rejected the right ones or not.

I’m not offended lol.  

FWIW She was given 5 months to live December 2017.  She’s still kicking.  Suddenly someone is afraid she’s going to die?

cmon now, as they say, pick your fights. And the time to fight was last year when she was accepted.  She sang for Obama, claim to fame.  *shrugs*

I'm not facing you so I don't really care. I care more about some of those that we're denied (i.e. Flores + the prisoner duo) and I seriously don't understand where the line actually is for fame now. Now, I'm not trying to argue with msc or anyone else, simply voicing my displeasure. msc can run this however he deems fit.
