Milo;340359 wroteNiemeyer? I would vote yes . . . his accomplishments are huge, but whatever . . . that is the whole point of the vetting period . . . to come to a consensus. Sort of like your Band of Brothers question. Were they famous because of the show? Or because of what they did IRL?
I have a feeling the new kid has a couple of sites that maybe no one has been to yet . . .
Oscar niemeyer????
I have no issue with this old dude. That's it. He's old and may expire in 2013. I'll ship if he is selected and dies.
Milo
Yeah, Oscar Niemeyer . . . what he did in Brazil is so cool. And yes, you are the "new kid" . . . no offense. And no worries about all the questions. As far as I am concerned it simply highlights how uncomplicated our little contest is, when compared with what is out there for the truly ghoulish to play with. Nothing wrong with making suggestions but, as stated, we will be sticking with the posted regs for this year, and see how that works. We're like the NFL that way . . . small tweaks here and there.
If I can get everyone's lists of 50 by say the 16th of December, that would be perfect. I will then organize and run through the Draft and post Rosters for examination and vetting by Christmas, so that on New Years Day we can start the Death March.
Still room for more Managers.

Any intersect in other entries?
Milo
As we are into December, feel free to PM your 50 man rosters to yours truly anytime between now and the 14th . . . no rush.
Please remember to number your choices from 1-50, and indicate which category they fall into.
Milo
First roster is in . . . any others?

I've been reading up on past pools and the new rules and such. It has peaked my interest, but I'm afraid that my lack of knowledge of celebs would be my undoing. The buttload of research I would have to do to come up with a decent roster is keeping me away. Probly a bad idea of joining a pool if I half-ass it.
Jacen299
I'm new to the pool this year. I have used lving picks from 2012 pool as a referenece.

It does take some time to come up with a decent roster, and some effort. I doubt it's as hard as you think though Tony. The payoff is that you're involved in this bloody thing for a full year. Making $ hopefully! Morbid as this might be.
Milo
Tony . . . do some google work, and see how easy it is . . . DP IV doesn't kick off (sorry) until January first, and I am still waiting on all but one of the rosters, so it isn't like you have to have it in by tomorrow. If you find it to onerous, well, you're not in yet anyway . . . but if you manage to get your squad ready, then you could be rolling in dough while your players are just rolling over.

>:D
Tonychanman
so if you have more than 10 in 1 category, can you overflow them into the misc category?
Milo
That is correct, so long as they qualify as a celeb then misc. is your catch-all category. Can I pencil you in, then?
Tonychanman
I'll try to put together a team in time
Milo
Done yet? :D
Tonychanman
Only 49 more players to pick
Milo
Slacker . . . or nit. Either way.
wildbill7145
This is tomorrow's project for me. I like to wait until the pressure's on.
Tonychanman
slacking nit...
