Official DP3 chat thread

Okay folks, Dead Pool 3 is on the way. Details are as follows:

Pool starts on January 1st 2012, and stops on December 31 2012.

Teams will be composed the same way as in DP 2.

Payouts will be on the graduated scale mentioned previously:

Player is 81+ = $5.00
Player is 66+ = $6.00
Player is 51+ = $8.00
Player is <50 = $10.00

Player is 27 = $20.00


Managers list is as follows:

compuease - IN
JohnnieH - IN
Hobbes - IN
Wildbill7145 - IN
djgolfcan - IN
Hellmuth's Mole - IN
DataMn - IN
kwsteve - IN
TheMill - IN

For those who need a refresher on the rules and draft procedure, here you go:

There will be 5 categories from which your roster must be selected:

Music
Hollywood (TV/movies)
Politics
Sports
Misc.

Managers will slot their selections into the five categories listed above, to a maximum of 8 picks in each, for a total of 40 players per roster.

Each Manager will then number their selections by desirability (#1-#40) so that I can determine which players you give priority to in terms of draft order. Category is not relevant for this portion, just who you think will expire first.

Once all team lists have been submitted, and the rosters vetted (after all, some of them may have died already) a draft order will be determined by yours truly. The Draft order will be determined by random lot, and will take the format similar to the NHL (ie 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1). Teams will be determined on a "first in, wins" basis. What this means is that, if 4 Managers have Player "X" listed as their #1 pick, whoever is highest in the Draft order gets that player. The draft will continue until an equal number of players are posted to each team. All team lists will then be posted to a "Roster Thread" which will be stickied for easier reference.


Deadline for new Managers will be Boxing Day, 26 December, 2011.

Deadline for roster submissions will be 29 December, 2011.

Draft will occur on 31 December, 2011.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL . . . EXCEPT FOR YOUR PLAYERS. :D

    Compuease is in "play", albeit at a reduced rate. :o
  • You're all doomed. Get your wallets out and keep 'em ready.

    I've always got my finger on the pulse of things, or the lack thereof.

    Doom I say.
  • I'd like to be in, please.

    You might want to re-read the rules.

    I did , the rules say nothing about collecting my bounties posthumously. :)
  • I could draft you to sort this out properly and efficiently.. You may have to go under the miscellaneous category. No offense implied.

    This thread is not about what I hoped it was about.

  • Howdy stranger . . . who would have guessed that "DP" is one of the triggers that alerts your PC to fun 'n' games on the interwebz?

    So . . . want in on the action?
  • Nah, I found Jesus in America and am now preoccupied hating on his behalf

    ...and eating processed Cheese-in-a-can...that shit is delicious!
  • Get the spray cheese . . . it's more efficient, and will get to your thighs faster. By the by, finding a Jesus in the States is not the oddity it is in Canada? Although, being that you are in MN, that is pretty much the US equivalency, so I'll let it slide.


    Got snow yet? 12 degrees and raining up here . . .
  • In Canada aorn. Bloody heatwave!
  • Home for the Holidays? or just a stop 'n' go?
  • Holidays. I'm running low on socks and family drama.

  • Working on my picks at the moment... Mrs Comp is actually helping me this year, despite her prognostication throughout the last year that I was "killing" myself by participating..

    So all the other teams submissions going to be done by the deadline?
  • Yours will be the first submission . . .
  • 29th is gonna be tough.
  • Is this gonna get off the ground? Where the heck are all the entries? Mine will be in but I'm not in favour of going ahead unless we get 8 or more..
  • List submitted...
  • I will have my list in by tonight.... I'm currently trapped in the north country. Quick question, do the "Olson" twins count as one or two? They are pratically the same person ;)
  • Three rosters are in. Your Moderator is patient, like a vulture in the desert. A short delay is getting to be normal for this thing. DP3 will start NO LATER than 7 January, 2012. This should allow all interested parties to submit rosters. If I get a full slate before that time, we will commence early. As a reward for following the rules, rosters submitted BEFORE the deadline will receive extra weighting for the #1 selection (ie more balls in the drum).
