The Woolster

Yeah, but my team was late, no points if anyone dies in the first week... 

I've got just a few more teams to go through,  will do this evening

Leon spinks gone. And yes I did have him. 3 in less than a week

Had him since last year,  couldn't he wait a week longer!

I think a pun for Christopher's death would plum to new depths...

My list is as follows

Shannen Doherty

Jimmy Greaves

Jimmy Carter

Linda Nolan

Tracey Emin

Paul Canoville

Grace Victory

Renee Simonot

Tom Parker

Leon Spinks

I'll put everyone's teams together, hopefully this evening

I also had Larry King in my list, so I guess someone did actually beat me... 

Right, confession time, I sat down Sunday night to put my picks together for this year, but then I realised I had not submitted my Self-Assessment tax return, and it was deadline day!

So I haven't picked my team yet... good thing I brought in the new rule about late entries then! I haven't opened anyone's PMs yet (can't remember if you can see if messages have been read or not on this forum), so I will get my team picked and then post it on here, and then I will get everyone's lists together. Of course under the new rules, if any of my picks die within a week, I won't get the points.

Sounds like @littletedwest is off to a flier though, so I better pick well!

Right, the scores are finally in...

AND STILL DEATHPOOL CHAMPION OF THE LIVERPOOLWAY!!

Yes, somehow I have won for the 5th time in a row, I say somehow because I only replaced 3 of my 7 picks...

1st - The Woolster - 70 points

Vera Lynn

Joint 2nd - Redheart & Gruntfuttock - 50 points

Redheart

Gruntfuttock

Barbra Windsor

4th - Evelyn Intentions - 48 points (2 replacements deaths)

5th - Littletedwest - 40 points

6th - Nelly-Torres & Thoth - 30 points

8th - rb14 -29 points (1 replacement death)

9th - Vladimirllyich & Tokyojoe - 20 points

11th - Jenson - 10 points

Nul Points - Jairzinho, Alles is Gut & Bjornebye

Fuck's sake!

Do I have a smaller inbox as I haven't renewed my subs? Had to delete over 100 messages...

(Most were Dave's send to alls, I'm not that popular!)

Should be space now

Inbox cleared!

New comp started, and its actually only a day later than opened this one...

PLEASE READ THE PART ABOUT PM’ING THE PICKS TO ME. IF THEY ARE NOT SENT BY PM I WONT INCLUDE THEM IN THE SPREADSHEET. 

I will not open the PM until my list is posted. 

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 2020 and 23:59 31st December 2020. Lists are final as of the starting time.

New Rule - 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.

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

-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. This will also help level the playing field and reduce the chances of The Woolster running away with things. New scoring as follows.

50+ - 9 points

35-49 - 15 points

-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 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!

Happy Celeb Deaths 2021

Think he was on mine too, I'm fucking up my own chances here!

I've been so busy, I've not been able to update the spreadsheet since the early summer I think, but should be able to go through the thread and tot it all up this week. I've been off work for 2 weeks,  so it does depend on if any shit has hit the fan in the mean time. 

Sorry peeps, shit did not hit the fan in terms of work, but it did in terms of lockdown and the combination of working from home and homeschooling...

In the meantime, I'll get this year's comp started in the next day or 2!

Liam showed more fight in their bout!

This is a beating.

This is the dick

Thought his corner was fucking useless.

The guy i went school with was a shootfighter and mma coach, he's not a boxing man.

My stream kept freezing, so missed a lot of it, but think he was the one doing most of the talking between rounds

Lad who was in my class I think nis in Chisora's corner, although hard to tell with the mask!

Here was there for the Price fight.

He was a massive bellend

Sorry peeps, still haven't had time to go through and update. I think i might even actually have 2 spare picks!  There's a few celebs breathing a sigh of relief heading that...

Have a feeling I have Stiles as well.

In a couple of weeks I think might get the time to do it

Oh pipe down Selby you sour grapes shit cunt!!! #Snookerworldchampionships https://t.co/Bc8pCtb0Lg

Err, I'm really struggling with time with working from home, 2 kids being home schooled and a 9-month old, will get round to it at some point, but it might not be straight away.
