The Asylum Death PoolFollow

Since debate has become increasingly more mundane and less morbid here, I propose we spice things up a bit with a death pool.

We'll each pick five people we think the most likely to die and award the person with the most successful choices some sort of meaningless honor. I'd propose a few simple rules:

1. The person you chose must be notable enough that his or her death will be relatively widely publicized.

2. You can't play a role in any of your choices deaths.

3. As a tiebreaker, place your choices in the order you predict they will die.

Who's in!!

Sure, I'll bite. When are the picks due, and what's the time frame? (End of the year, 12-month period?)

Lets say Friday, and sure, a year sounds about right.

I can think of three famous people who will surely die within a year. Are you sure five is the number you want?

I think three's too likely to lead to a tie. On that note, if folks want to PM me their picks to avoid the "oh yeah, him!" problem of the last people to post having an advantage, that's fine. I'll post them all in a list on Friday. I'll send mine to Nexa tonight who honestly would consider cheating in a trivial thing like this akin to killing a puppy.

Sounds good. I have my first four picked out, just need to cook on the fifth pick.

I was thinking we should expand it to ten, actually.

Ten's going to be a lot for most people, let's make it five. I think it's a sufficiently high enough number to avoid two people having the same five in the same order.

Since we're clearly not worried about others poaching our picks, I guess.

I put him last because his death will surely involve a days long soliloquy.

A local radio station has a yearly celebrity death pool. But since its easy to pick people that are likely to die due to age or illness, they determine the winner by awarding points equal to the celebrity's age at time of death subtracted from 100.

So if you pick Novak and he dies (at age 77) you get 23 pts. Last year's winner had Anna Nicole Smith on his list and scored major points for it.

I will have to recuse myself from this competition, since my wife can successfully wish people dead.

Have fun!

I take your continued existence as refutation of this claim.

Who am I kidding, Bea Arthur will outlive my puny existence.

Speaking of Bea, the roast of Bob Saget is coming up soon. That has some potential laffs.
