'Box dead pool '08
« on: December 23, 2007, 10:02:49 PM »
OK, here we go - if you'd like to participate, the rules are simple:

pick 8 at-least-somewhat-famous people who you think will expire in 2008.

No "world's oldest man/woman" bullshit.

Celebrities/notable people on life support as of 12/31/07 are eligible.

deadline for entry is whenever I first log in on January 1st, 2008...probably noon-ish, Eastern Time Zone in the US (GMT -5).

There will be some sort of prize for the winner. Prize yet to be determined. In the event of a tie between 2 entrants, a coin flip will determine the winner. In the event of a tie between more than 2 entrants, a name will be drawn from a hat. Or some shit like that.

Eight huh?...

Perhaps a designated "dark horse" as a tiebreaker?
That is, someone young and in good health, in a non-hazardous profession.
Make that worth 1.1 "right answers".  (That is, all other things being equal,
get this one right and you win.)

Just a thought, and now I'll think about my corpses-in-training.

Mark my words, someone's gonna shoot George Bush, and the country will revolt because the shooter took so damned long.

I don't have 8 people (not a celebrity person), but I think Stephen Hawking might just kick the bucket XP

Britney Spears might be on the list.

Someone will have already killed Amanda Palmer sometime in '08.


Okay, that was corny.

Yes, although I'd like it if you'd pm the list to me as well. That way, I wouldn't have to worry about people changing their lists after the deadline.

FRIEZENS: You can change your list right up 'til New Year's Day should you wish.
colordeaf: you still have more than a week to come up with a list.

No, no, no - the 'Box died in '07.  It was already very sickly in '06.

That would make it an invalid entry on your list then, wouldn't it?

...or the 2nd or 3rd. I'll close registration when I log in for the 1st time in '08. How's that?
