Well he died in 2019 so I think that's the reddest of the flags

 

You can still collect points if they died in 2019, as long as the obit doesn't appear until the 1st January or at worst the 31st after teams have gone in....

The obit was posted December 30

I know, I was pointing out that 'they died in 2019' is not in itself a red flag..... yes, I'm being extremely pedantic.

Just found out one of my names died before the start. Though this wasn’t known when I submitted, it was known before the starting so a sub should come in

Reet - I'm seeing all the action above and clearly we need to start awarding points 365 for Stern, a once every four year thrill on this pool

 

Stewards enquiry on Battle.

 

Off down the gym in a minute - then back to start the scoreboard

Battle - yeah, subs and in the case of deathbyarsenic I've also trawled the top name from the team list and made that the new joker

 

So...

 

BATTLE - forget it, dead over Christmas, obit posted online 30 Dec he's a DNS due to death and all teams selecting him are fielding subs.

 

Elsewhere joey gets a second sub after his baseball bat battered grandad pegged out (God help anyone who picked him for the DDP)

 

Otherwise points awarded and Banana cashes in a joker and two dead in two days to storm into a massive lead (1093 pts on the board already). At his rate we could be sorted in a week.

 

 

Banana - 1093

GC Reptile - 728

MSC - 365

The Old Crem - 365

Jiromenkimura - 364

Destinee McEwen's instagram account has gone private in the last three days (after nothing had been posted in two months). Does it mean something or did she just google herself and found us?

I didn't want to know a thing about her since she ruined 2019 numerous times lol.  But she isn't a QO so was no point.  Maybe on these pools she may work, I just didn't care any more.  BTW, another Sir Creep introduction to DL

Reet, I may check in later tonight but just warning you the attempt at FA Cup Third Round giant killing in Cardiff takes precedence tomorrow.

 

So, if anyone dies post the names and (please) links to the cheap and cheerful q/o's we Deathracers love and I'll update the scoreboard on Sunday once my head's cleared.
