We have spam antenna. Looks like windswept hair to the uninitiated. Also works at picking up alien signals.

Talented bunch, we.

shame we can't include the spammers on our lists really.....

None of that changes the fact that I'm winning. There is little time to go in the year. I have it in the bag!

Wait, what do I win again?

A dead celebrity.

A particular one, or do I get to pick one?

you can have Jackson. they've buried all the rest

Rats. Foiled again!

Wasn't he supposed to do some kind of frozen thing, and come back later all alive and stuff?

Michele Bachman
Sarah Palin
Steven Anderson


Oh, that's my WISH list!

Aw, but (winky winky) you don't love the Palin? :(

score

So Far this year...


Patrick Swayze = 43 points
Karl Malden = 3 points
Ted Kennedy = 23 points
Walter Cronkite = 8 points
Kenny McCormick = 0 points


Monster - 43 Points (Patrick Swayze)
Shawnee – 31 Points (Ted Kennedy & Walter Cronkite)
Classicman – 23 Points (Ted Kennedy... using my own list to beat me)
Spudcon – 3 Points (Karl Malden)

omg. I'm so sorry, Patrick......



:lol:

lol - sorry bud.

'Scusi - I doubt it's many points, but I score with John Mortimer.
I put him on there to save him (it worked for The Thatch for after all) the least I can get is a few measly points for my loss.

14 points for SG

Damn damn damn. :headshake

.

You know, the points system...I not like. You get beaucoup points for Swayze when he has had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel for HOW LONG? [/competitivesoreloser]

Oh, and LOL at madman!

Shawnee had Malden, too.

Thanks Spexx. :)

:mad:

edit: so I predict THREE deaths and lose? I need another fatality from my list. What the hell is Tara Reid doing? Is she all fucking sober or something? That'd be my luck!

:lol:

You've not lost yet, chick.
You gotta gun?

Ok, revised year to date totals...


Patrick Swayze = 43 points
Karl Malden = 3 points
Ted Kennedy = 23 points
Walter Cronkite = 8 points
John Mortimer = 15 points
Kenny McCormick = 0 points (animated people don't count)


Monster - 43 Points (Patrick Swayze)
Shawnee – 34 Points (Ted Kennedy, Karl Malden & Walter Cronkite)
Classicman – 23 Points (Ted Kennedy... using my own list to beat me)
Sundae Girl - 15 Points (John Mortimer)
Spudcon – 3 Points (Karl Malden)

Oh come ON...look at that! With what weird logic am I not winning?

I'm declaring myself winner anyway. Hmmph.

Just kiddin'. Kinda. Yeah, I'm a bit competitive...what of it? ;)

loooooooooooooser!

Well it IS bullshit. I don't care how you slice it.

Sigh, Shawnee. This is how it works.
You choose people who are going to die.
You take more of a chance if your choose young people, but you get more points if they die. However there is a tendency for older people to die sooner, you just don't get as many points.

There is no "logic", there is no "fair", death is random.
Taking a weapon out on the streets is the only way you can hope to have any impact on your position on the list. Or a putative knowledge of healthcare.

That is what Monster has done after all.
Or at least that's what I assumed when I got a text message from her saying, "That's for Chappaquiddick you arsehole!"

I hope that makes things clear.

You don't take a chance if you know they have terminal cancer and they're like, 41 years old.

That's OK, I still think Tara will pull through for me.

Thanks for the 'splanation: I get it, I just think the fact I predicted 3 deaths is pretty impressive! Yeah they were old...but with the exception of Teddy there was no news story of their impending death.

But I wouldn't begrudge the mon anything! I love the monster! :)

I know you know the rules, babba. I was laying it on thick for my own amusement.

Me, I'm gutted that the first year I get a single hit, I'm still coming in last of the scoring Dwellars! AND I had to lose a hero in order to do so! So, I sympathise almost completely. Not totally of course, because I still won't bloody catch you.

I love Monnie too, but what say we off her anyway?

Shaw, you win in the "most deaths predicted correct" category, Its kinda like winning best supporting actress.

Wait, let me add her to my list. :bolt:

Apparently, less is more. :D

Damn, I forgot about offering a made-up prize to an obvious fruitloop... Yeah, they did to to Michael Jackson, didn't they?

Did I say that out loud?
'Scuse me, just go to go and deadlock the door...

;)

I'm impressed with your mad death predicting skillz Shawnee! You go, girl!

I am impressive like that! I got the impresses goin' on! :)

That's why the game is tough. When you go for older people, you have a better chance, but if you get lucky and pick someone young, you jump to the head of the class.

I'm glad to see Robert Downey Jr. has his shit together now. He was on my list for awhile.

You have an even better chance if you pick someone with terminal cancer about whom the headlines once blared SWAYZE DEAD IN FIVE WEEKS. Duh...that's my point.

It's your scoring system, I am just pointing out it's not flawless, so quit act like I'm not winning. ;)

yeah but that five weeks was in 2008! you figure if they kast 20 months, they must have it beat, right? :lol:

Anyway shawnee, stop going all Kanye West on me or I'll have to start photoshopping images of you......

Imma let you finish, but I had the best death count of the YEAR!

Bwaahahahahaaaaaaa

oh, I have my photoeditor open and two pics in there awaiting my attention....

is there anyway I can squeeze Kanye into my list? I reckon some redneck's bound to do him in after he hurt their country music princess ;lol:

Ruh roh :eek:

I'm truly sorry, from the bottom of my heart. :p

I agree. Those who are widely known publicly to be terminally ill shouldn't count. I mean those who are in death row don't count. But I don't know if Patrick Swayze's cancer was widely known about in January.

That doesn't always work out. Ariel Sharon is still alive, the bastard. I think I had him on my lists in 2007 AND 2008!

Yeah, I had Magic Johnson on my list...when he first got aids. About 50 years ago. :eek:

:lol:

and fidel castro is hanging in there too..... fucking miracles of medicine :lol:

Kim Jong Il won't die dammit!

Has John Madden Carked it yet? cuz, you know he's either gonna die before the end of this football season, or he'll live to be 104

Alternate scoring system: instead of adding points, multiply them, thus giving a big return for those who get multiple deaths.


Shawnee 552 – Points (Ted Kennedy (23), Karl Malden (3) & Walter Cronkite (8)) 23 x 3 x 8 = 552
Monster - 43 Points (Patrick Swayze)
Classicman – 23 Points (Ted Kennedy)
Sundae Girl - 15 Points (John Mortimer)
Spudcon – 3 Points (Karl Malden)

or add them then multiply by the number of hits: Shawnee would be on 102....

William Shatner?

would have 0 points under any of the scoring schemes because he didn't submit a list

. . . nor is he dead

I just have a hunch but I'm going to add George Michael to the list.

http://www.azcentral.com/ent/celeb/a...e-michael.html

Meh - if he was going to implode he'd have done it by now.
He's just got better at not picking up policemen on the Heath...

bump . . .

Is it time for the 2010 pool?

I'm guessing no one got Brittany Murphy?

Actually yes, it's time to start formulating your lists. They should be in by New Years Day.

fuck. she was a cute kid.

I never thought much of her as an actress until recently when I saw a movie called "Ramen Girl" and she did a pretty good job as the protagonist.

Oh fuck. I really liked her. I'll never forget her creepy character in Girl, Interrupted. :(
