The Hartlepool Deadlypool

[maryportfuncity 10,645]

I'm level with DDT. That's usually a good sign in these things.

 

Bear in mind DDT's incredible performance in other dead pools. I'd say it's a sign of the way death mocks our best efforts of form-studying and intuitive guessing.

Eydie Gorme died yesterday. Only Time picked her to E'Die, but a thin 28 point gain is poor reward.

28 points is 28 points, so no complaints. I can't believe she never did Hollywood Squares though!

[Rotten Ali 600]

Not according to my notes, but I'll have a better look at that long full list.

[Rotten Ali 600]

And what do you know... No sign of Eydie Gorme on the 591 name IMDB list of those who appeared on two or more shows... But a glaring error that we missed Bonnie Franklin having been on the show.

 

Therefore, Hein gets an extra 30 points, Unknown Man gets 27 more, BT gets 18 more and Est Float gets 12 more.

Check.

 

regards,

Hein

[Rotten Ali 600]

Prince of Death arrived 18 months late but 25 basic points and 10 unique bonus points (snow) drifted down to our fine Mr Hein today.

 

Edit 28/12/13:

I had wondered if the Prince was worth those extra bonus points for being one of the 25 inline of the Dutch throne but as wiki says below he technically was not.

"Prince Friso was a member of the Dutch Royal Family, but because of his marriage without an Act of Consent in 2004, he lost his membership of the Dutch Royal House and was no longer in the line of succession to the throne."

So sorry, no extra points beyond the unique bonus.

I've got a whole 3 months to improve on that. It's clearly not quite wooden spoon enough yet.

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Rochus Misch's death could be subject to bonus points for crimes against humanity.

Over to you NAP.

For now 4 teams get the basic points.

Note BS gets of the mark with 35 pts. Hein gets 35, Death Impends gets 45 and Bert gets 40 and the lead back.

Aye, my fire is somewhat extinguished hereabouts due to the lack of a death in almost three months by a hitherto high-performing outfit:

 

Clive James - 3rd/ Grace Jones - 5th, Ronnie Biggs and Zsa Zsa Gabor (8th and 9th) still breathe. I'm beginning to rue placing James so high on the list.

James I think will trundle on for a few years yet, Jones may hang on to try and become the oldest living person (said as if its an actually widely known list she's 7th on!) and Biggs and Zsa Zsa are fools gold.

 

That said, through random choice of my list, I appear to have done very well at keeping the following alive:

 

50 George H W Bush

45 Erich Priebke

40 Sandy Jardine

35 James Lovelock

30 Asa Briggs

25 Donald Sinden

20 Major John Freeman

15 Chapman Pincher

10 Renee Asherson

05 James Garner

 

I'd be highly amused if it wasn't for the Nazi...

[Tuber Mirum 125]

I had to think about this one because I've never really considered Misch to be a particularly nasty piece of work, but I suppose on the bottom line protecting the Führers life has to be considered a crime against humanity, whatever he may or may not have believed he was doing.

So yes. Crimes Against Humanity Bonus for Rochus Misch.

 

 

 

I just went through the teams to see which one might be eligible for the prize for the most interesting or original or unusual or whatever selections. None of them made me laugh, which may have been a decider. I'm still thinking about it.

 

Can anyone be bothered counting to see which teams are the most original, in that they have the most unique picks? That might help.

[Rotten Ali 600]

Rochus Misch's bonus points for crimes against humanity.

BS & Hein get 21pts. Bert gets 24 points. Death Impends gets 27 points.
