Here' s a new deadpool in which people get points if their picks are hospitalised, and loose points if they die. A good way to celebrate the staying power of some people.

Whoever has the highest score wins. SCORING 1)If your pick is hospitalised you get +10 points 2)For every ten days your pick spends in hospital you get +5 points 3)If your picks gets discharged you get +10 points 4)If your pick is in ICU you get +5 points 5)If your pick enters hospice care you get +20 points 5)If your pick dies in hospital you get -20 points 6)If your pick dies after being discharged or without having been in hospital you get -10 points PERENIALLY HOSPITALISED If your pick is perenially hospitalised (e.g. Zhang Lixiong, Shi Ping, Yang You) or a perennial hospice patient (ahem Jimmy) you get +10 points for every month they survive and -20 points if they die. These are the rules. If there are questions feel free to ask.
