DBA Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 That's my team in! After a disappointing 2015 with only 2 of the team contributing to the points tally, only 6 of last year's squad are retained. The excitement is now building for kick-off on the 1st!

cdhafc1874 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Trying to finalise my team over tonight + tomorrow. Don't want to be sending team in with mins to spare like last year. Lemmy + Srnicek were both on my shortlist so bit inconsiderate of them not to hang on another few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingette Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 My list is in. Although just found my 2013 list only one on that list has pegged it to date. Clearly I don't have high hopes for this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Going through my options just now, should have my squad ready at some point today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 List submitted. Looking forward to picking up no points next year, which will put me slightly ahead of my "No entry for being late" last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbes20silkcut Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 It'll be looked at on a case-by-case basis. Welcome to the game Morph, and thanks for sending it in a usable format. Which brings me to a point of note, as I know a lot of you will be keen to have the lists posted as soon as possible on the 1st. It would really help if any submission I received from now on was in the following format: Captain's Name (then whatever spiel you want) Name 1 (then whatever spiel you want) Name 2 (then whatever spiel you want) etc. In other words: Captain at the top of the list, no numbers or extra spaces before their name, no extra lines between picks. I'm quite happy for you to add a spiel about each celeb, as it makes the whole thing more entertaining, but by doing the rest of these wee requests I can input into them all into Excel a lot quicker and have the analysis and lists up as early as possible. Correct spellings also save me a bit of time too. This year I will definitely be here on the 1st. I've got a fair amount on for Hogmanay and into the morning of the 1st, but I'm at least in my hometown this time. So provided I haven't been left with a mountain of work to do to pull it together, I'll be hoping to post the lists around mid-afternoon. Can youth confirm receipt of my later message with my captain's name I forgot on my original squad list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blootoon87 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Just sent in my team of immortals. Mostly the same team I've kept faith in, I feel like I have to stick with them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Can youth confirm receipt of my later message with my captain's name I forgot on my original squad list. Have you got a lisp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawpar Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Just PM'd my list for this year. Hopefully better than this year than the 1 hit by that guy with the big nose out of Happy Days. Got rid of half my team. This year skirting relegation and just like Leicester City I hope to change this and challenge for the title in 2016. Not bloody likely.

Gareth_Glasgow Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Hoping for a better performance this year, I had Sam Simon and Terry Pratchett early doors in 2015 then bugger all else. I reckon I've got two possible solo hits in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 The Liz Taylor Rule - No, not that one. If the person is a relative of a famous person, is he or she also a celebrity? I'm going to go simple with this one; does the person have their own genuine wikipedia or full IMDB page? No, then no dice Is this rule specifically for 'dodgy' relatives ? I have two people short-listed who are known in their own right and whose death would generate a UK Obit but neither of which have personal Wiki or IMDB pages!?

Eednud Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Hoping to be more than a one hit wonder in 2016 (will edit this comment if become a two or more hit wonder before Midnight). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spain Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 Is this rule specifically for 'dodgy' relatives ? I have two people short-listed who are known in their own right and whose death would generate a UK Obit but neither of which have personal Wiki or IMDB pages!? Yes. If they're famous, they're famous regardless of a wiki or IMDB page. If they're a relative with any dubiety, they need one of those to justify it.

Spain Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 Can youth confirm receipt of my later message with my captain's name I forgot on my original squad list. If it says "read", it's been dealt with. If it doesn't, then it hasn't. For your information, I haven't opened it yet. I've got 12 messages to work through and I'm not touching them right now as I don't want to make any drunken mistakes to the spreadsheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hmm...been thinking hard this week. Eliminated quite a few so I'll have this to you by tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Nederlander Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 That's mine in, I didn't go for the 'famous' bloke from work. Two folk from my 2015 list made the cut ... I'll pencil them in for the 2017 list the now. Cheers for running the show Mr. Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Mine are in. Nearly the same as last year, with only a couple of changes. One died this year and the other I decided to sacrifice for a late sub whom I've heard whispers about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 After ruling out many from my list that I've been monitoring throughout the year, I'm actually struggling again like last year tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njord Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Another quick question. Is the criteria for solo, duo's etc based on the starting lists? It would be a nightmare to administer otherwise, plus be confusing as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
