I think it's a good idea to start the pool picking earlier this year.

The rules are here for those interested:

I intend to post the pool listings for this year later today, and I
want to know if there are five people interested in playing, otherwise
I'll reduce to four pools, because of the problem we had last year
with Bordon Is Gone being... well, gone!

Tchau!

I am interested, but also quite busy and I tend to overestimate
how much time I have available for games. If someone would
like to pair up, I'd be glad to co-manage.

Of course, if there are 4-5 other people really interested, I'd be
equally glad to step aside and watch the fun.

The GREATEST game is back!

Thanks a lot, Jesus: for having designed a perfect and superbly
entertaining game, and for running it again.

For various reasons, if there will be three people, I'll be the
fourth. Or, if Sid want to co-manage with me, I guess that two erratic
players are equivalent to one constant player!

Also, my friendly suggestion is: Jesus, decide an automatic rule to
pick matches for bets and play!

I'm delaying the pool picking until more people show interest. Last
year we had moments like this one:
