nessies long lost ghost Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 On 01/01/2019 at 23:33, Miguel Sanchez said: Alright, the data is still a work in progress in terms of how I want to present it, but I know how eager everyone is to peruse the lists as soon as possible, so here is some information. - There are 87 entrants - The most popular pick was Prince Philip, with 51 picks - I really don't want to count all the solo shots and deadly duos (at least right now), but there's fucking loads of them. The list of entrants, teams and relevant information has been added to the third post at the start of the thread. Please let me know how the formatting and loading works for this - it shows up fine for me on desktop but my monitor is quite wide, and it was quite slow to load because of how much stuff was there. In the meantime, I've attached the full spreadsheet to this post. You'll probably need OpenOffice or another program that opens spreadsheet files to view it. In the spoiler below is a full list of names and how many times they were picked. There may be some repeats/omissions, but everything in the original spreadsheet is correct and any issues with the lists/presentations should be corrected over the coming weeks.

I know the Dead Pool has been going on here since long before I started posting, so I hope I can do it justice over the time I'm in charge of it. Good luck.

Since it's the first Sunday of the year, it's the first scoring update of the year! There are no scores to update. But, something that I always found slightly underwhelming in previous Dead Pool years was not knowing how many points a hit got me. As a perma-diddy, when someone I picked died I expected better. Then I'd look at the updated totals and I'd be in 60th or something. Now, to go along with the standings whenever the first deaths come in, you can check yours and everyone else's scores, whenever you want.

Just to add, you could quite easily work out the base points for everyones picks with a simple formula and have it there on that spreasheet - though exact points would depend on if they die before or after their birthday Edited January 6, 2019 by sparky88 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
