The Woolster

This just might be the dream signing that gets me excited about football again and brings me back...

Thanks mate, appreciated

Right, best get this done... Shannen Doherty Nigel Starmer-Smith Jimmy Carter Esther Rantzen Linda Nolan James Whale Rob Burrow Joanne Woodward Frank Field Jean Marie Le Pen Will start going through everyone's entries next week

2nd time it's happened as well...

Fuck sake. He was in my list that I hadn't got round to posting!

Yep

Bump Think I've got 9 in so far

Fantastic TV, had to pause it a load of times to just shout "what are you doing" at the TV with the missus.

If only @elvis had thought of this first!

If you haven’t played before please get involved. Rules listed below. 1. Each contestant much pick 10 celebrities who they think will die between 00:01, 1st February 2024 and 23:59 31st December 2024. Lists are final as of the starting time. I will accept late entries, perhaps someone finds this thread half way through the year and would like to enter, however if someone dies within 1 week you won't get the points for it. 2. When the death has been confirmed, points will be awarded, and the people who had them chosen may choose a new celebrity for their list. Please post replacements in this on this thread, PMs may be missed or not come through. 3. A celebrity is defined as a person who lives their life in the public domain. If we have not heard of them, then we can reject them. A good rule of thumb is if they have a Wikipedia page that you didn't just make. 4. Death row prisoners and people in public 'right to die' cases are not permitted. 5. Your picks can be any age at all. No minimum or maximum for the categories, but points will be awarded like this: 50+ - 10 points 35-49 - 20 points Under 35 - 30 points 6. You will get fewer points if it is one of your replacements which dies. This is because the new pick may be based on more recent news, so is not 'as skilled' as an original pick. 50+ - 9 points 35-49 - 15 points Under 35 - 20 points Please PM me your lists, and I will begin the spreadsheet. Even if you want your list carried over from last year, please PM me to let me know so that I can 1. confirm your list, and 2. keep track in one place who has entered. This also stops people copying your lists. Once the game begins, I will post the lists here. When you're sending your lists in, please put in the categories of your entrants in order like this... 1. John 50+ 2. Mike 50+ 3. Steve 50+ 4. Sam 50+ 5. Arnold 50+ 6. Peter 50+ 7. David 35-49 8. Liam 35-49 9. Tom U35 10. Paul U35 Please don't use nicknames! I will not open the PM until my list is posted. If your message bounces back, please let me know on the thread, I may need to pay for membership to get the space in my inbox... Good luck everyone!

On its way...!

I would have been a tie, only original picks get full points, and she was a replacement.

Just saw this, unlucky!

AND............ STILL DEATHPOOL CHAMPION OF THELIVERPOOLWAY - littletedwest!!! I think that is the 3rd year in a row, so congrats! littletedwest won with 49 points thanks to what I think is probably the quickest death (I do seem to remember 1 if not same day, maybe next day nomination before?), after picking Shane McGowan on the same day that Kissinger finally went. If McGowan had gone first, it would have been a draw Bobby Charlton Rolf Harris Henry Kissinger George Alagiah Shane McGowan Harry's Lad was 2nd with 40 points. Rolf Harris Henry Kissinger George Alagiah Silvio Berlusconi And I came 3rd with 30 points. Rosalyn Carter Henry Kissinger Bob Barker Tied 4th with 20 points Redheart, Gruntfuttock and Bjornebye Tied 7th with 10 points Vladimirllyich, Red_or_Dead, Tokyojoe and No2 Nil points to Jairzinho and Special K Shout out to Bjornebye, who had both Sinaed O'Connor and Burt Bacharach in his list last year, but took them out for this year's entry... I'll get the new game up an running in next day or 2

It's been so long I can't even post properly...

I'm thinking about it... It was pretty pointless in those seasons where us and City were pretty much winning every game, and too depressing to do last season. It's just finding the time... But I guess it would get me back on the site more often and rather than just in January to sort out the Celebrity Deathlist comp...

I did ask if anyone would like to over as I'm not really on the site much! I think it would be good for the game if a frustrated player took over the reigns and put in the effort it deserves...

But not as good, amirite...?

Sorry, just realised I forgot about this, will get on it in the next day or 2...

Lotta deaths today, so thought I'd pop in to say I will be coming back to collate the scores, and soz for no updates.

Thanks! When us and City started winning more or less every game, it became kind of pointless so stopped doing them. I think this season would be too depressing, but maybe I'll start it up again for next season... Wasn't too much effort though, at least once I'd set the spreadsheet up anyway!

Here is my list Shannen Doherty Nigel Starmer-Smith Jimmy Carter Rosalynn Carter Linda Nolan Henry Kissenger Bob Barker Joanne Woodward Frank Field Kate Keltie I shall post all the entries in the coming days and I'll contact those who have not resubmitted. If anyone has missed the deadline or is only just coming across this thread, you can still enter a list, the more the merrier!

I've got 8 messages so far in my inbox, get your entries in by tomorrow if you can. There are a few who get involved and post in the thread, but have never entered, I think it's about time you did and get some skin in the game!

Let me know if the PM bounces back...
