2010 ISH Death Pool

[Knuck the Ficks]

Hello ISHers it's time to set up the 2010 version of the Insidehoops Death Pool. The 2009 version is still ongoing and can be found here:

http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=112830

A few things:

- The points will remain the same, that is: (100 minus Age at Death) for each celebrity on your list that passes. So picking a bunch of really old celebrities may not score you many points.

- I am increasing the number of people you get on your list to 15. The aim is to try and get a clear winner this time round.

- All lists need to be in by 31st of December midnight (I'll allow some leeway but not too much). Like last year you can edit your list as many times as you want up until said date.

- From last year's threads you can see that our lists were all pretty similar. This was because people were influenced by what other people had written down. If you don't want people to view your entry then PM me your list, you'll just have to trust that I won't get any ideas from it

- If you're interested post in this thread so we can get a rough idea of the numbers. I'm not going to run it if there's only 5 people.

- The people on your list have to be famous. Last year someone wrote "Wayne Gretzky's dad". I was never going to give him any points for that. As a rule of thumb if you have a wiki page that requires scrolling to completely read then you are probably famous enough.

- Finally, don't come in here all sensitive and asking for this thread to be deleted. Just ignore it.

[CLE[216]]

I know, I know.. Some serious wack-ass picks here. But I KNOW a singer or sports star will die this year.

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

You weren't far off. Creepy.

[pete's montreux]

A sports "star" dies every year. Could he have made a more general statement?

[CLE[216]]

A sports "star" dies every year. Could he have made a more general statement?

It is a very broad statement, but the timing of it...he posted that three days ago.

[pete's montreux]

']It is a very broad statement, but the timing of it...he posted that three days ago.

Yeah, but he said "this year" as in 2009, where several sports stars have died already.

Someone...this year...will be diagnosed with cancer!

3.Ali Hassan Abd al-Majid al-Tikritieh (Chemical Ali)


Dude will never die. He's cheated death like 5 times now.

[vapid]

I guess its kinda like betting black when the roulette wheel has shown red a few dozen times.

[GreatGreg]

Yeah, but he said "this year" as in 2009, where several sports stars have died already.

Someone...this year...will be diagnosed with cancer!
I'm not talking about some forgotten old-timers, I'm talking about somebody current or from 10 years ago.

I just know it'll happen.

[LJJ]

3.Ali Hassan Abd al-Majid al-Tikritieh (Chemical Ali)


Is he still alive? Pretty devious to pick someone sentenced to death. :lol

[goldenryan]

you guys should pick a wrestler, a few die every year eazy money.

scott hall
hogan
warrior
somebody like that

[vapid]

I tried to divide my picks into categories:
1. Really old people
2. People with dangerous illnesses/on Death row
3. Foreign political figures with lots of enemies
4. People under a lot of stress: Look for people hit hard by recent financial turmoils and/or political figures
5. People who lead fast/deadly lifestyles
6. Long shot young celebrities that have high risk/return potential due to age

If someone fits in more then one group they are a good candidate in my eyes. Maybe I should have picked more Japanese, their culture is quite morbid at times.

Things to avoid: Evangelical people who have something to live for (spreading their message), vegans.

New Rule:

People with terminal cancer are off the list, unless someone can convince me otherwise (I'm talking with reference to the Lockerbie bomber here).


It sounds like a dick move, but in retrospect we shouldn't have allowed people to include Patrick Swayze this year. Once people saw someone pick him about half of us included him and so his death didn't really change the standings.

Im keeping Kareem, since it is not certain if he will even die from leukemia.

[Knuck the Ficks]

Im keeping Kareem, since it is not certain if he will even die from leukemia.
Yeah, that's fine.

But unfortunately I won't allow someone who is in the last stages of terminal cancer to be on the list (Again I hate to be a dick, because I wanted this competition to have almost no rules but the Swayze thing ended up being just a whole bunch of wasted picks).

Another rule: you can't put down another poster's name like playtetris did.

[Waking_Life]

mbell cause hes due for a heart attack.

[Knuck the Ficks]

Bump.

Those who have signed up, remember to post your picks. If you haven't signed up it's not too late to enter. There may even be a prize this year (Note: if there is a prize it will probably be shitty, but nevertheless still a prize)


Important for WoGiTaLiA1, big baller and future entrants

After some thought I've decided that you can't include the Lockerbie bomber on your list. The Death Pool is a game of chance and there is zero uncertainty surrounding the Lockerbie bomber's fate.

Other death pool's around the web actually forbid picking someone with terminal cancer, so please change that pick.

[vapid]

This week alone, both Japan and Ireland had their respective ministers of finance hospitalized.

Hirohisa Fujii of Japan was admitted Monday for unknown reasons and will stay for around two weeks as he undergoes more tests.

As for Ireland, Brian Lenihan has unfortunately been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

So with these two titans of money out of commission, one must ask the question: is the current state of the world's economy taking its toll on the health of those in charge of it?

Both of these countries are under enormous pressure right now, and the connection between stress and health is well-known.

Hopefully these are isolated incidents, completely unrelated to work, and they both return to health soon.

clutch call. :pimp:

[Knuck the Ficks]

Bump. Get your lists in soon.

Entries close 12AM United States East Coast time.

Does anyone have Gary Coleman?

http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory?id=9492232

He was hospitalized because he "didn't feel well"

[johndeeregreen]

After some thought I've decided that you can't include the Lockerbie bomber on your list. The Death Pool is a game of chance and there is zero uncertainty surrounding the Lockerbie bomber's fate.
Really? Because he was supposed to be dead within three months of his release and he's not even in the hospital anymore.

Just sayin'.

[vapid]

clutch call. :pimp:

Japan's culture of quitting, whereby resigning is always the honorable thing to do, looks set to continue as exhausted finance minister Hirohisa Fujii has offered his resignation to Prime Minister Hatoyama.

According to Time Online, Hatoyama has rejected the offer, but at this point the 77-year old, who has been in and out of the hospital since last month, has to be considered a lame duck.

For Japan, the eventual departure of Fujii comes close on the heels of the finance minister, now deceased, who showed up either drunk or on too much medicine at a press conference last year, ultimately forcing his resignation.

It's certainly not the kind of trend you want when the whole world is betting against your debt.

About the Lockerbie bomber thing: I'll let you guys keep him, partly because I should have stated it in the rules, partly because you guys didn't remove him from your lists and partly because I can't be fukd.

Congratulations.

[Knuck the Ficks]

Congrats vapid, Chemical Ali was 68 so you receive 32 points.

It took us til July last year to record our first points so it's good to see someone score early.

Two more things:

- A running scoreboard will be kept on the first post in this thread.

- No-one is allowed to edit their posts. It's pretty easy to find out someone who has done so and you will be disqualified.

[rufuspaul]

Come on Steven Tyler you were so close to an OD last time. You can do better.

[vapid]

Ali was so money. His age*likeliness of death statistic was probably off the charts.

[Knuck the Ficks]

Really surprised only myself and Pete had him, but Roger Ebert has written his "last words":

[InspiredLebowski]

Holy shit, I had no idea Ebert was in such bad shape. I didn't even recognize him.

[Mista Kool]

Roger Ebert is dying? Wow. I'm jawless...

Oh shit! I mean speechless! I'm speechless over this news.


Damn Freudian slips. http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/418/embarassedb.jpg

Did anyone have Corey Haim?

[Kensta]

Did anyone have Corey Haim?

LevisJean does.

[Jailblazers7]

I forgot I had Tiger Woods on my list. lol

Maybe one of his ******* will go crazy and kill him.

[Knuck the Ficks]

Corey Haim is dead - Congrats LevisJeans.

38 years old = 62 points, that's quite a lot of points.

EDIT: Scoreboard in the first post has been updated.

[Knuck the Ficks]

While we're waiting for more people to die I have a game for all of you. Guess which participant in the Death Pool sent me this message a few hours ago:

http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/6043/pmdpool.jpg

The list of possibilities is in the first post of this thread. I think it should be pretty obvious.


(To the person who did send me this: don't ruin the fun. If you do I will keep you in the competition and remind you about it every chance that I can. Keep in mind that I saved your list to my comp so there's no point in deleting your entry)

big baller?
phoenix18?
vapid?

[PistolPete]

Too late to join??

[pete's montreux]

I honestly have no idea who that could be.

[RedBlackAttack]

I would guess vapid, but I doubt that he would forget that "it's" is a contraction that needs an apostrophe. :confusedshrug:

[pete's montreux]

Vapid, really? He's one cold-heated SOB. I doubt It's him. Maybe Phoenix18, he's kind of a b*tch.

[Parade]

:oldlol: there's no getting out of death club

[rufuspaul]

I'm gonna go ahead and guess LevisJeans.

[vapid]

:roll: :roll: You guys seriously think its me? I was in the lead until a few days ago.

[rufuspaul]

:roll: :roll: You guys seriously think its me? I was in the lead until a few days ago.

You would be the last person I would suspect of wanting to back out of a contest.

[Jailblazers7]

I don't have a clue who it is. There's no way its vapid. He seems like a cold-hearted SOB.

Maybe playtetris?

[statman32]

Im gonna guess GreatGreg

[Knuck the Ficks]

It was phoenix18. And I'm going to keep him in the competition.

[LJJ]

Phoenix18, you are dead to me.

[RedBlackAttack]

It was phoenix18. And I'm going to keep him in the competition.
:oldlol:

Quit fail?

[Fatal9]

Corey Haim is dead - Congrats LevisJeans.

It's Corey Haim, not Nelson Mandela.

[InspiredLebowski]

It's Corey Haim, not Nelson Mandela.
Unfortunately. :ohwell:

[Mista Kool]

I give Roger Ebert still being alive two thumbs down.

[pete's montreux]

Did anyone have Dio?

[Big Bang Theory]

Gary Coleman anyone?

[vapid]

Hopefully Lohan goes on the run from the cops.

[Knuck the Ficks]

On the previous page you can see "Parade" listing two midgets (Cox and Troyer). I have half a mind to give him some points for being on the right track :oldlol:

[vapid]

Hmmm....Dennis Hopper anyone?
