    On the other hand, Terry Jones had FTD and died 5 years after diagnosis. Means he's due, maybe even overdue. I'd pick him for sure in the Cup if I were you.

    There's a new pool over at DSCDP, called Canadian Bacon. All picks must be born in Canada. It'll be a challenge, and it's sure to be polite. Locks down in 11 days.

    By my calculations, if just one person had had the thought to take a flyer on Kobe Bryant, he would have been worth 234 points.

    5 folks had Terry Jones at the DSCDP, for 23 points each. More points on the board, we are well into it now.

    So we're on the move! Heck of a hit, Egil Krogh, Chicago lawyer. First blood and solo bonus. 5 hits site wide, so not a total sleeper, but nicely done. Now the grind begins. Can he hold the lead?

    Political Frailty

    I consider anyone not mentioned in the forum as a sleeper, but there are probably 2 or 3 dozen folks scrubbing her from their lists as I write this.

    My top pick sleeper pick that I was hoping would hold on until the Deathlist Cup didn't make it to the start line. Allison Copening, former Nevada senator, dead at 55 from apparent cardiac issues. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.fox5vegas.com/news/former-nevada-legislator-allison-copening-has-died-family-says/article_b52ee986-3a1c-11ea-8d0a-63b0aeed3a7e.amp.html

    The 2020 Deathlist Cup

    My crystal ball just had the flux capacitor go, and these fucking chicken bones just keep telling me something about an overinflated orange, whatever that means. I might need some new ones that aren't from KFC.

    If you get a hit, you will get an automatic email from the site. Aside from this, the hits there get put up on their dashboard page, and the score totals are managed for us by the site as well. I'll probably make note of some of the significant hits here, but others can feel free to as well if the mood strikes them. I'm not possessive of this. I'm hoping there will be some form of running commentary here over the year by participants.

    Congratulations on First Blood, but I'm guessing it was in a different pool than Fossorius Endeavour? We all still seem to be at zero there, meaning this bonus is still up for grabs here.

    I don't know. He still looks ridiculous with his orange skin and hair, if you ask me.

    Not to be a dick about it (except that's exactly what I'm doing), we all have a 100% chance of dying this year. There is always the chance.

    I would have thought 2 miles to be a sufficient buffer, but if it's your time to go, you're gonna go.

    Now we wait for the ever-sexy First Blood bonus. Who will it be? I say Neddy Smith.

    I took a chance on the Galyon boys, world's oldest conjoined twins. If one dies, they both die, so Daily Double is a good chance, plus solo points, for up to 164 points if it's their year. And if they die on their birthday, oh baby!

    Apparently they have 2 committees, one American and one international, that vote on submissions. I dont know what criteria they use, but I agree, inconsistent. The mandatory requirement is a wiki page, but its certainly no guarantee.

    Quick preview of the lists is pretty impressive- I see dead people! The biggest surprise to me is the solo for HdS for Daniel Arap Moi. Guess every figured he would get taken and wouldn't be worth more than 5 points, but now HdS is in line for the extra 25. Higher level thinking!
