Sir Creep 7,070 Posted March 6, 2020 Thought I'd take a look: 6 hits with Henri Richard today (he was a sub for a DNS!). Not bad. I know you don't want them dying before Easter, but still lots of carnage to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChorizo 1,983 Posted March 7, 2020 Had to check cause I wasn't sure if I picked JPDC here,thankfully on my subs bench. Still 5 hits this early(Belso,Jones,Scruton,Ebbers,Watanabe) is less than ideal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathray 2,940 Posted March 14, 2020 Please direct any and all your frustrated ramblings, moans, gripes, back-biting and mathematical sarcasm to @YoungWillz from this point forward. Also going by the past your nobodies are far less likely to sneak through with a competent game runner. You were forewarned, At long last permanently free of this bollocks and all who play it as outlined at the start of the year, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,060 Posted March 15, 2020 Ok, before I get too deep into this, it's going to take me a while to get a handle on entries, points etc etc etc. @Deathray could you update the OP for 2019, points, champion etc please? Yeah, know it's pain but then you can, in the words of Elsa from Frozen, let it go. Now don't fret if it takes a while or I get things wrong initially, it will sort itself out. Hoping for fortnightly leaderboards as before. Remember I'm doing a Correctlist and a Poker Tourney later. And if I go down with the coronavirus ship, somebody be ready to step in. So, here I go again...…! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
