***2006 DEATH POOL***

Post by Luther »

An old poster pal from over at trolltrain, Harsh, has started up their pool for the upcoming season of predicting deaths. Harsh's rules looked like fun, so hopefully with his blessing we will borrow them for our own use.

Can a mod or Admin. please sticky this until midnight of Dec. 25th please? I'll keep score...

Thanks, Harsh and trolltrain.com

Here are the rules.

1. Pick 5 names, must be famous people, list the names and what made them famous i.e. Movie they were in, political position, something that put them in the history books, significant contribution to society, commercial....etc. Once a name has been picked it can not be used again.

2. If that person dies between Jan 1, 2006 and Dec 31, 2006 you will be credited in points the age of the person subtracted from 100.. If I take a flyer like Mary-Kate Olsen and she dies at 20 I get 80 points.

3. Person with the most points on Jan 1, 2007 will win $20.

4. 10 extra points will be awarded for those that also pick the cause of death.

5. Picks must be in by Dec 25, 2005.

PLEASE LOOK TO MAKE SURE SOMEONE HAS NOT ALREADY TAKEN YOUR CHOICES. THE FIRST TO LIST THE NAME IS THE FIRST THAT GETS THAT FUTURE DEAD GUY/GAL.

My Picks

1. Nancy Reagan. Former First Lady to Ronnie. Natural Causes
2. Jack LaLanne. Fitness Guru on TV. Brain aneurysm.
3. Ted Kennedy. Senator from Mass. He has the big one.
4. B.B. King. Geetar player/singer. Complications from diabetes.
5. And my one flyer...Courtney Love. Crazy bitch, was in People vs. Larry Flynt. Traffic Accident

Sheeeitt...

Seeing Tookie, who's on the frying pan in Calif., and Saddam...seems to be a given pick, but who knows. I'm not saying those were picks under the loin cloth per se, ...they are just picks that I didn't think about. hahaha

I remember when 9-11 came around and we were discussing the expected lifespan of Osama. Old Luth was the only one who said he'd still be around now. I believe some friends of mine owe me some serious bowls of rice.

Next year, I think I'll have to eliminate people who have been sentenced to death row...So, please, don't select anybody that has been banned from here, alright?

Go YARD...make a flyer pick.

88 wrote:To really make this game fair, you should modify the rules a bit. Here is a proposal:

1. Post your five final picks before midnight on 12/31/05.
2. You can pick anyone, even if the person has been selected by someone else.
3. The persons on your list have to be famous, and cannot be on death row.
4. If a person on your list dies in 2006, you get 100 points minus the person's age minus the number of people who have that person on their list. Thus, an old fart who everyone expects to die might not be worth too much, particularly if a lot of people have him/her on their list. You can get negative points.
5. If you are the only person to list someone who croaks in 2006, you get a 20 point bonus. Thus, maximum total possible score is 600.

What do you think, Luther?
there's going to be plenty of dead people in 2006....just do a little work, think it through. if you dont have 5 now, get in the ones you want and add later. snooze, you lose.

Mine are realistic and not people I want dead:

Luthor's penis: The old man's unit. He'll be up late after everyone is in bed. Slowly go from T1B over to scantily clad 20 somethings, when he'll realize he doesn't have an erection.

Richard Pryor

Muhammad Ali

Nancy Reagan

Gerald Ford

Yeh, I know easy picks. But one more:

Jack Black: How many times can they interview this guy and he's fucked up on something? I'm surprised drug sniffing dogs aren't eating their way out of their kennels to track this guy down.
