    First news source I've seen reporting Zara Nutley's death. New Zealand though......http://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/celebrities/87664559/2016-was-a-brutal-year-for-celebrities--heres-who-we-lost Maybe she'll get a mention in end of year round ups.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Hmm, if anyone had put Prince on their list for this year, you might have said the same thing. You just never know. That said, educated guesses are probably better than padding. It's not the predictability of dying that's interesting, it's the unpredictability.

    The dead of 2016

    Didn't he attend the Hall of Fame thing? That was quick then. Well, at least 2 DDP teams will be happy he died, cause they get points (he'll obit without a doubt) Yes he will.

    The Hare's Death Pool

    Ok, so two teams already entered for 2017 had Craig Sager. I've moved your first sub into the main team, and all your subs have moved up one. Feel free to nominate a new sub to take the bottom place. (Ooh, I haven't heard that in years, naughty!)

    Shaun`s Death By Numbers 2016I

    I'm still on 42 measly points with two deaths. Might have to write this one off, Shaun. Ambitious to get 50 names x however many entrants and keep on top of it all. Next year's might be easier to handle. My entry for that will be with you shortly.
  19. And on that note, I'm finalising my various teams, entries etc. DDP entries to be emailed to TMIB within the day (and fingers crossed I don't have to deal with yet more deaths between now and the end of December for my teams).

    MHDP Obits

    Given Hein looks like he will not be returning, perhaps a super member of this forum could step in and run the thing? I'm not volunteering, I haven't the faintest idea how the calculation works.
