The 2017 Two Plus Two Celebrity Death Pool - Who's gonna croak first? - Page 15 - Other Topics Forum - Discuss Pop Culture, Arts and Entertainment

Who's got a moustache-and-monocle avatar, and 14 pts from Monty Hall? This guy ^^^^^^^

Also - econophile and toedder get 14 points each, too. I'd list out all the scores, but instead prefer to make you select door number two to see the scores.

(It's really a scoresheet, not a picture of a donkey.)

He's apparently already been visited by the hospital chaplain and has a DNR order. Isn't expected to make it thru the night

RIP Aol Instant Messenger, the plug will be pulled on 12/15/17. If I knew it was still a thing I may have put it on my list. At 20 Years old it would have been worth a lot of points.

So from what I can tell I get a minimum of 65 "fat juicy" points from Ralphie May, but 4 some reason i can't get the google doc to sort to see if it was a solo pick for me or not.

In which case it would be 80 points.

If I offended anyone w/ the Fat juicy line, I would tell you the same thing Ralphie himself would tell you... "**** off."

Also as a wise man recently said in this thread "The winning helps me grieve."

You're right.. just double checked my PM's to Superuberbob leading up to the deadline and for some reason I actually removed him from my list on the 29th of December.. Pretty sure it's because I was overcome with grief that my mother daughter combo both died within a week of the start of the pool....

That being said, RIP Ralphie May.. i HATED him when I 1st saw him on Last Comic Standing b/c he was your typical 1 issue comic, but he actually became a very good comic over the years

Like Y.A. Tittle, just to pick a name out of thin air.

In lieu of accomplishing things at work today, I figured I'd update the scores. Scroll up to find a link to the spreadsheet.

Good news for me: Y.A. Tittle scored me 35 points. [20+15]
Bad news for me: I trailed ham on rye by 36.

The leaderboard follows. Folks who scored on the last two -- Y.A. and Monty Hall -- are bolded.

ham on rye, 233
Punctually, 232
PyramidScheme, 193
Tokyo!!, 191
Howard Treesong, 152
Louis Cyphre, 132
econophile, 116
Umcle Diddler, 114
JDiamond364, 106
Banned4lyfe, 90
krunic, 78
SuperUberBob, 65
toedder, 41
golfnutt, 39

Toedder had Roy Dotrice. Good for toedder. Add 31 to his score just above. Will fix later.

Or maybe not. One of my solo picks, Helen Fawkes, kicked it back in June. Just noticed as I was scanning for news on my remaining roster.

Yeah, if memory serves BBC was specifically excluded at the beginning of the year; there was a discussion around this. I hope you can find something on one of the other sites.

Everyone should do what ham is doing, regardless -- scan your own picks and call them out if they've shuffled off. I can't keep up with everything.

This will shake up the standings. I can't get at the spreadsheet right now, but 4 people had Gord. 3 had him as the joker, and I know two of them were Tokyo and me. (sorry ham)

Will update later today.

I’ll see if I can figure it out, but It might take a few days. I’m minding a family member in the hospital and can’t easily use my laptop. Tapatalk sucks for PMs, which is where I have all this.
