so we get 18 pts each?

He was 82 - you should each get 82 points.

Damn...someone on my list needs to croak here so I can catch up.

 

[BluePhantom]

ok...


Give me

Gary Busey
Queen Elizabeth II
George Herbert Walker Bush
Keith Richards
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Joan Rivers
Liza Minelli
George Jones
Jack Klugman
Roy Clark

and for double points I will take Mick Mars

Did I say Roy Clark? I meant Dick Clark. How about half credit?

No, the rules are that you get one point for every year under 100 years old. So they get 18 points each.

But I think it should be low score wins, like golf.

An Amy Winehouse is worth a helluva lot more than a Dick Clark.

Most dead people on your list, plus lowest combined age.

Oh, that's good, too!

You know....there's a disturbing sickness and lack of sophistication to this whole thing that I really find attractive.

If it's true, I am way ahead

Alright! You demanded an improved Dead Pool and here it is!

As always, your task is to pick ten (10) celebrities from any venue you believe will not live to see New Year's Day 2012. Any ten famous, infamous, notorious folks who will be at room temperature during the 2012 Rose Parade.

As suggested by Noose, this year's Dead Pool will feature this caveat: you will receive one (1) point for every year the stiff you choose is under the age of 100! Someone 75 years old dies, you get 25 points. Someone 98 years old dies? Oh! That's a two (2) pointer.

I will again furnish the prize. A brand new car? No. An all expenses paid trip for two to Aruba? Wrong again. The prize is a Fiestaware Pedestal Bowl in your choice of color!

Have fun and good luck!

Last year we had a run-a-way winner (Thanks, Zoom) and this year the age rules are suspended. If you pick the most dead guys, you win!

Wait, wait, wait a minute . . . when did the age rules get suspended? I thought it was the same as last year, 1 point for every year under age 100? You can't just arbitrarily change the rules. I thought one of the reasons it was set up like this was so that everyone wouldn't just pick old people who are more likely to kick off.

Picking someone over 100 should disqualify you! It would be like picking a baby as one of the cutest humans or picking a West Virginian as someone with poor dental hygiene.






watch the post count grow after angry West Virginians figure out how to operate a computer!
