Nah as you said yourself Toast actually foresaw what a fucking stupid, barrel-scraper inducing idea of a competition this piece of shit was and how it would encourage to pick their next door neighbour with fucking cancer and vegetables about to be fucking stabbed. Even it's 'fame' requiremets ae something of a fucking joke you cunt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,227 Posted January 5, 2020 I do want to make clear that I won’t be accepting any teams for the cup until after I submit my team to a trusted person on the 20th (that is, if I don’t get a bye). Once the 20th comes, you’re all welcome to submit though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,227 Posted January 12, 2020 Hello, here's a reminder that there's 8 more days until January 20th, which is when the first cup draw is and the end of the entry period is. You might be able to force the host into a first round if you do that. Also, I do want to make clear you need to confirm in some way that you're entering the cup. You can't just enter a team once the entry period begins and expect to be added onto a draw. So just an FYI... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,227 Posted January 13, 2020 There’s about a week left to enter. Well, truthfully I think we got about 80% of the participants at least for this, but in case you have forgotten about the cup, entering the cup is still open... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,227 Posted January 13, 2020 I've already got someone in mind to submit my list to. As it stands, the only people to play in round 1 are those who did not participate in the cup in 2019. That'd be JiroemonKimura, grobler, HDS, Annami, An Fear Bag, LizLemon, and Sean. Additionally, if nothing else changes, one of those names will get a randomly drawn bye into round 2. However, if more names enter into the cup in 2020 (and by all means, please do), then some of last years folk will have to play again. Most likely to play again in round 1 are markb4, Great Uncle Bulgaria, and The Old Crem. For reference, here is the entire bye list barring a few folk who probably won't return in 2020: 1. Spade_Cooley 2. Boudicca 3. Banana 4. Clorox 5. TQR 6. Death Impends 7. Chorizo 8. Reptile 9. Mad hatter (have yet to confirm entry) 10. Torva (have yet to confirm entry) 11. Book 12. Pedro (have yet to confirm entry) 13. Deadsox 14. Bibliogryphon 15. John key (have yet to confirm entry) 16. DDT 17. Dead cow (have yet to confirm entry) 18. Old lady 19. Heef (have yet to confirm entry) 20. Grim 21. Alt obit guys 22. Deathray 23. Engineer 24. Maryport 25. Young willz 26. Joey russ 27. Msc 28. Sir creep 29. Yorkshire banker 30. Skinny kiltrunner 31. Master tech (have yet to confirm entry) 32. Joemoneypennny (have yet to confirm entry) 33. Wormfarmer 34. Buffalophil (have yet to confirm entry) 35. Nantonian (have yet to confirm entry) 36. Unknown man (have yet to confirm entry) 37. Old crem 38. Exu (have yet to comfirm entry) 39. Great uncle Bulgaria 40. Markb4 41. Fixed Business (have yet to confirm entry) 42. Time (have yet to confirm entry) 43. Squonk (have yet to confirm entry) If you notice a "have yet to confirm entry" thing by your name and intend to play again, this is a warning to you. Also, if you are able to force the host into round 1, well, that might be an achievement on your end. As you can see, it's not that difficult to do at all... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,227 Posted January 14, 2020 Can confirm I made the first cup draw now. This will change if more people sign up (and again, please do), but what I can say for sure is that round 1 and round 2 looks quite interesting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,467 Posted January 14, 2020 Sods law, Joey, I have done "as it stands" draws ahead of the deadline in the past and the draw you get is ALWAYS better than the actual draw after last minute people enter. Although last year I did the draw 5 times as more unexpected people enter, and 4 times I drew Reptile, who beat me. I was starting to get worried when I looked up my horoscope and it read "A German deadpooler is going to thump you in the Cup..." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
