Lemonade Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Right.JaseyBoi, Bux, and Jon, you have 21 people in your team - (ie 20 players, plus 1 captain, whereas it should be 20 players including a captain). Please pick one to remove.MattJimF, for the record can you please advise which Billy Graham you have selected? Wrestler or preacher?SurferRosa and Alan Cynic, you have not nominated a Captain. Please do so.Bux, who is "The Warrior"? The Ultimate Warrior?Loving Gooch_Taylor's team name. "Die Cunts!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Gerry Rafferty died at 63, thus was worth 8 points. No bonuses apply,and he was picked by two people. Thus the early scoreboard is:1= Bigsby 81= Delboy 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
