GuyFromFuture 69 Posted July 18, 2022 This Game is like Midsummers Deadpool and Advent Avalance in that every entrant can only choose 1 name. Unlike those pools first hit doesn't win here,the goal of this pool is to have picked the 8th person who dies. So local weathermen with 24-48 hours to live might not be the best selection here. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
