Pumping Them Out In The Birthing Pool 2023

Recommended Posts

This is based off game The Old Crem started who has given me permission to take charge of 2023 game.

 

The game is simple. Pick 20 celebrities who will have a child in either 2023 or 2024. 

 

Rules: (Mostly the same as original rules with a couple of changes)

 

1. Teams have to be sent in by 31/12/2022. Please send teams to me via PM and do not post on the thread. 

2. You can pick either the mother or father of the child, but the parent has to be a celebrity.

3. You score points once the celebrity, celebrity's partner, surrogate gives birth or the adoption of a baby under 8 weeks old is announced. 

4. The qualifying source is either a newspaper report or a post on verified social media account belonging to the Celeb or their partner. 

4. Celebrity is defined by the pick having a Wikipedia page that existed before 1st December 2022. 

5. You can't pick both likely parents of the same child in the event that both mother and father count as celebrities.

6. If there is any public doubt as to the identity of the father of the child, then the pick will be 'lost'.

7. Picks must be legal (i.e. the parent must be over the age of consent in their home country)

8. No pregnancy that has been officially announced or reported in a Q/O source as a strong rumour is allowed. 
9. Any pregnancy that is announced between now and the deadline will not be eligible for points and you can chose to then withdraw that celebrity and replace them (but can also keep them in case their have a second birth in 2023). 
10. Each team is allowed one joker who can gain double points. 

11. Additional rule - If pregnancy is announced and there is a misscarriage or still birth then player gets half points (10 points turns into 5 etc).
 

Age of parent at time of birth:

 

Mother:

17-30: 10 points

31-35: 15 points

36-40: 20 points

41-50: 40 points

51+: 100 points

 

Father:

 

17-30: 10 points

31-40: 15 points

41-50: 20 points

51-60: 40 points

61-70: 70 points

Let the predicting comence.

If anyone is pondering who they should put. Here are some suggestions based on recently married, will probably not use a condom or suggested they will get a surrogate soon.

  • Nick Cannon - Already had or expecting three children from two women this year. Current number of children is at least 11.
  • Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz - Recently married
  • Paris Hilton - In her documentary she said she froze her eggs and wants to be a mother. She got married this year.
  • Britney Spears - Had miscarriage this year and may try again
  • Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck - Married this year after getting back together
  • Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian (founder of Reddit) - Already have one child together
  • Rita Ora and Taika Waititi - Recently got married
  • Princess Eugenie - Already has one child
  • Princess Beatrice - Already has one child
  • Meghan Markle and Prince Harry - Less attention on her once coronation happens
  • Taylor Lautner and Taylor Dome - Recently got married
  • Lindsay Lohan and Bader Shammas - Recently got married
  • One of the Kardashians/Jenners - They pop out a kid at least once a year
  • Christina Ricci - Got married recently
  • Freddie Highmore - Got married in secret
  • Rafael Nadal - Recently retired and his wife gave birth to first child this year
  • Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas - Already had a surrogate child together
  • Matt Hancock - Recently got together with a new lady that he had an affair with
  • Boris Johnson - He likes having kids with women he's not married to
  • Simon Cowell - Already has one son
  • Amber Heard - Has one surrogate daughter already
  • Elon Musk - He's crazy right now and may surprise people

Congratulations on the 10 points. And here was me thinking you got the wrong tennis player when Naomi Oskaka got pregnant.

I actually did think of having her because of a rumour on the blind gossip websites about a year ago that seemed to be referring to her being upset one day that she wasn’t pregnant because she wanted a break from tennis.

Right then. Just come back from work and gone through the list to find that @diego had Paris Hilton as his joker meaning he gets double points. As Paris Hilton is 41. It means he gets 80 points.

 

@DeathBecomesThem, @The Old Crem , @diego - scoreboard will get updated shortly.

More a puerile reference to Fiona absent minded saying Diego having had her. Not meant to impregnate your own picks! :lol:

 

Really it was a @Gooseberry Crumblejoke...
