gcreptile 10,967 Posted August 29, 2019 Okay, guys and girls.. it works this way: Each name is like a battery that loses its charge every time it is picked. The first one to pick name XYZ gets the full charge of five points. The second time the same name is picked it's worth 4 charges, then 3,2,1, and yes, theoretically you could even pick a name with no more charge, I.e. worth zero points. My pick Randy Romero is also worth zero points, because he died too early. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted August 29, 2019 So the meaning of this DP was trampled over. Interest lost. Was simple before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just like Joey and JCReptile. And Joey, Banana and Chorizo with Valerie Harper. So take away the name you entered after Randy Romero passed away. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Y’all can have it. Life is short...as this website can attest to. Don’t need to continue sitting through a bad movie just cuz I paid for a ticket. Sensible person gets up and walks out and enjoys the day. Douthit was my last entry, I will delete her, and that’ll be that. SC 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wormfarmer 427 Posted August 31, 2019 Damn! Waited just a couple of hrs too long to check in - Eddie Money was going to be my new name for the game, but Fixed Business beat me to it. I suspect we will start to see him come up quite a bit over the next couple of months. Glad some folks are following the new system, even though others are not. But thanks for clearing the air on the rules as I don't have time to cover it all right now, guests from out of town are waiting in the other room! I guess the new rules are not for everyone, sorry to see Mr. Creep move on. Sept (all rock n roll) team: Eddie Money Gary Rossington Yoko Ono Lee Kerslake Stevie Wonder 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks! edit: see the conversation after this. Since gcreptile posted his September team before Miss Harper died, does that mean Philip gets 10 pts, theoldlady 8 pts and Sir Creep 6 pts?

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted September 11, 2019 Believe that only applies if it happens on the last day of the month, not the second last day of the month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually on the last Day of the month I think one gets triple points. They way people might get extra points instead of posting too early. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
