drol 12,085 Posted March 18 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. RULES 1) Pick 10 people for your team (plus 1/2 subs). 2)Entries close on midnight of March 31 2024 and game starts on 00:01 of 1st April 2024. 3)Game last one year. 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. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,769 Posted March 18 This pool is going to be a nightmare for scoring given all the conflicting reports that come out of India, the Middle East and Africa about hospitalisations/conditions/discharges etc. Bloody good luck hosting! 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I rely on reports from contestants, but I usually keep track well. And the hospitalised rinse and repeat folks are actually quite few usual suspects. 3 minutes ago, Bibliogryphon said: How long will this run for?

livingbygrace 397 Posted March 18 I have Wendy Williams on my list but have a question about her. I think she may be in a treatment facility right now, but I am assuming that does not count. Only if she needs to go to an actual hospital. Am I correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
