        If you are going to submit a team now would be the time to do it.
        Working on it..... working on it!
        It's quite hard, I found out!

                      • Our 17th team has been registered - a new high for the Poly Dead Pool.

                        Robert Plomp (Life Kills) is good to go.

                        Robert - You will find #10 listed under their proper name rather than stage name.

                            • Hauldren Collider (Kaptain Kool-aid) got an entry in just under the wire last night to be the 19th and final team registered for the 2011 pool.

                              A couple eligibility issues have yet to be resolved with his team. Once that is finished I will try to get the new thread started today.

                                Why am I the only player to pick Christopher Hitchens? I expected to see his name on many lists...but didn't.
