Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 22, 2019 Just a note: Sadly when I started reviewing teams I rubber-stamped a particular prisoner as ok to use. For future purposes, please note that I do not consider murders or other criminals on death row or otherwise as 'celebrities'. They're all the same to me. Unless something sets them apart (say, international interest, huge media attention, or something outside of the crime itself [See: Lynne Stewart]), I would be inclined to say NO to each and every one of them. As you may recall I fielded Gary Thibodeau in the 2018 DL Cup. He would not qualify for this DP (well, he's dead now, so...). And I do not see any difference between him and the rubber-stamped name I let through this year. So I consider this year's entry a mistake and it will not be the norm.

msc 18,443 Posted July 22, 2019 Although in my defence, Prisoner X queried is far more of an internationally infamous case ala Sutcliffe or Tobin, than a Gary "No fucker had ever heard of him" Thibodeau. Always put a git or two on your team, I say! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yvonne 360 Posted July 23, 2019 I may be naive but can you clarify what it actually takes to be a git? Just that we seem to have a few at work 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 30, 2019 Hey I posted an update as to what going on. I got called to work last night 6pm, had to drop everything and drive 14 hours, arriving about 3pm today. I was going to do everything last night and it all got screwed up. So I'm on it tonight and will update in a few hours. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,140 Posted July 31, 2019 The end of the month has crept up on me faster than I realised. I'll try and get a team in tomorrow. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 31, 2019 OK all caught up You should have received a response saying your teams are good or needing a name. But I think everyone who has sent a team if fine, with one exception. If anyone knows or can contact DeathByArsenic, I sent a note that I needed a couple new names, and Essebi also died in the meantime. I'm going to delete any teams that are incomplete (short of late last minute deaths...of course). So for now that threat belongs solely to DBA. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
