[Nosmo King]

there have been a lot of deaths that the cheating bitch didnt get....

but yea its a run away for zoom...when should we have the 2011 list ready?

how many etc....you may as well give out the rules now

Entries for the 2011 Dead Pool will be accepted at the 2011 Dead Pool Thread. I'll post that between Thanksgiving and December 1, 2010.

Pick ten (10) celebrities from any walk of life (sports, entertainment, politics, media) any one who has had their fifteen minutes of fame and is at least nationally known.

If your picks shuffle off this mortal coil, if they assume room temperature, if they get a little gamey after a few days in the sun, you get the appropriate points.

Noose suggested, and I agree, that awarding a point for every year your pick is under age 100 when they get their ticket punched is a fair way to cut down on folks cherry picking the nursing homes. You will additionally lose a point for every year your stiff is over age 100!

The prize will once again be a lovely piece of American made Homer Laughlin China from their Fiestaware collection. All rules and exceptions will be posted on the Dead Pool 2011 thread (which I hope will be sticky, thanks in advance mods!)

This has been fun and that's why I entered but I seriously don't have any use for the prize so . . . whoever the runner-up is can have it. Merry Christmas!

Nosmo . . on your list? I thought Harry Morgan had been dead for ages. lol

Nope! Harry Morgan is still very much alive!

And foregoing the prize is very noble! I'm more than ready willing and able to forward it to you. But if you're just here for the fun, that's okay too!
