The 2019 Deathlist Cup

Recommended Posts

Yes, Boudicca has beaten The Young Willz Cleansheet Record, which now stands at 75 days. Pretty good for a Cup newcomer.

 

You can all wish her congrates now before the inevitable Mad Hatter winner as we all jinx her.

 

I was waiting for another update, but things seem a bit slow right now.

One of the few things I had on this forum....

 

Only fair that, having beaten msc's record in the Hare's Pool, he is the one to announce the loss by me of this one! :D

 

Well done Bou!

Was he a pick this round?

 

Yes. Unique for Banana! Rad will be annoyed after cassing this joint.

 

And so will I. A DDP miss - stats suggested he'd be OK till 2020.

 

Anyhow, could be crucial to the slippery one. Geddit? Banana peel, slip? I'll get my coat...

 

 

Round 3

1.       The Mad Hatter vs Boudicca 0-0

2.       Rad vs Banana 9-10

3.       John Key vs Death Impends 0-14

4.       The Quim Reaper vs Book 3-0

5.       Gcreptile vs Pedro 6-0

6.       Chorizo vs Torva Messor 3-3

7.       Bibliogryphon vs Spade Cooley 0-14

8.       Deadsox vs Clorox 0-16

And with that, Banana reclaims his title of best newbie. 44 points in 11 weeks!

Of course, best newbie is decided by survival, but there's a very tight race for it this year.

Polly Higgins has died. RIP.  Banana and Rad share points. DI and Spade extend leads and can now scout each other out.  And Reptile has... probably put Pedro to bed now.

Fucking woe betide anyone who has to face DI in future rounds...21 points! Christ on a fucking bendy bus. I was quite content with my meagre 3 point lead over Book until I saw that utter bloodbath.

It'll be me vs Spade next round though. Unlikely either of us will perform a Squonking in May!

Banana had 22 points last round against me, so it could definitely be higher...

Mayweather kept ducking the older Pacquiao till it was a match he could win on age alone.
I see a method to DI's madness, waiting till Final Four.

LUCKY LOSER STUFF SHOULD WE NEED IT*

 

 

So last time I tried to give someone a lucky loser spot but never heard back from him till well after the fact - although I did get the funniest excuse ever for it. Hence random draw and frantic searching for last minute teams.

 

So, this time, to avoid more fucking stress, with 5 days left, here are the three names chosen at random using Random.org who will be the Lucky Losers should someone not put in a team again.

 

Lucky Loser draw

1. Bibliogryphon - I shit you not.

2. Pedro

3. Book or The Quim Reaper

 

Now hopefully this WONT be needed this time, but fucking hell, its a random drawing website! Beginning to think Biblio has hacked either my laptop or Random.org tbh...

 

This means the losers of any penalties between Kid/Bou and Chorizo/Torva will exit the competition - tense, eh, he says trying to drum up needless suspense...

 

 

*You can take as read we might need it, hence provisions, but it would require a series of remarkably unfortunate events to befall several of us.

And a DDP miss for me, as it hadn't seemed ominous enough in December - clearly not taking colon cancer seriously. Anyhow, 4 points for you.

0-21? Now this is embarrassing. 

 

In the unlikely event I make a comeback, just use whatever of my list remains + the living Presidents of the United States 1. Carter 2 Trump 3 Clinton 4 Bush 5 Barry O, chuck in Putin, Merkel, May if that doesn't make enough. Also known as the "I give up" list. 

Thanks for letting me play, was fun! Good game folks :)

OK, all weekend I was like: "I should give the results of the penalties earlier to avoid false hope etc and add some added KO drama ie X was now out UNLESS they scored.." But I didn't, and now I have woken up to a team from someone who has lost the coin toss. Mea culpa, a thousand apologies.

 

Coin tosses

Mad Hatter (head) v Boudicca (tails)

-          (Tails) 1-0 Bou

-          (Tails) 2-0 Bou

-          (Heads) 2-1

-          (Tails)

-          Boudicca wins 3-1.

 

 

Chorizo (heads) v Torva (tails)

-          (Heads) 1-0 Chorizo

-          (Tails) 1-1

-          (Heads) 2-1 Chorizo

-          (Heads) 3-1 Chorizo

 

So Torva and the Kid are out barring late shocks. And the Kid is likely out anyway due to personal issues we all genuinely wish him well with, so if his team scores, he eliminates both himself AND Bou, and brings back Luigi... Bibliogryphon. I think I've got a headache.

 

Usual reminders sent out.

I now have images in my head of a series of unfortunate events leading to a default final of TQR v Biblio in May, which the latter wins 0-0 on penalties...

All 8 Quarterfinal teams are in! Which means...

 

He drew in Round 1, but got back up again.

He lost in Round 2, but got back up again.

He lost in Round 3 and now, for Bibliogryphon:
