Hein is off the marks with a few points. The only one to select the ex UN Secretary General, Boutros Boutros-Ghali, he gets bonus points. However as Hein placed him at the bottom of his list he more or less looses more than he wins.

 

Also points 15.1 points to Uschi, and 30 points to Morbid Kid for their choice of George Gaynes respective cast members.

It's my first hit in any DP I play in 2016. That it wasn't very helpful I accept with a smile. There's a Dutch saying for that: "Wie 't kleine niet eert is 't grote niet weerd" (who doesn't appreciate small things doesn't deserve big things). Game on!

Time is now off to a flying start too with his headline name. Unique hit on Eric Winkle Brown's sad departure. Beyond knowing if he liked to Morris Dance, I make it that 70 points are all yours.

With the death of Douglas Slocombe comes news of two teams who score points. First unit, lights, camera, action: msc with a 25 point sub pick and a micro point. Second unit, filming out of sequence, only 15 points to Captain Chorizo. (It's in the can, with 2nd place)

 

Cut...

I'm off the mark. Towering actor George Kennedy died on the 28th. I had him as a unique and as a cast member of Hollywood Squares. Thus the bonus score is more than the basic points.

Points to be added here, later for Martin Crowe, got a medical emergency of our own on the go today with my lad. Looks like a broken metatarsal.

Go well Ali, the Voice of Young Maryport was a decent goalie in his younger days; we've seen a couple of hospitals over the years.

Thanks Maryport. X-Ray of the pained area show that he's not broken any of it. Still asking me for piggy back rides though.

 

Back to situation in hand. Twelve teams thought that a Crowe in the hand is worth two Bushes in the field. Or something like that.

Biggest winner was Shaun of the Dead, getting off the marks, gaining 46.1 points. Maryport has an extra 46 points. Switch gets 45.4 points. Morbid Kid gains 45 points.

6 team bag about 40 points. The Unknown Man gets 40.9pts. Death Impends gains 40.8pts. Uschi gets 40.5pts. Captain Corizo gains 40.3 pts. Book gets 40.2 pts and Hein gets 40.1pts.

Dead Cow 30.7 pts and Deathray's Casket only 20.6 pts.

Sorry to hear that, Ali. Better safe than sorry, though, with getting it checked. I had similar foot injures when I was young.

 

Not sure what the .1 in my score is for (then, as I've said many times, maths is not my strong point) but I'll certainly take it.

Called micro points. Given out when the going is good to popular picks. If you were the last person to choose said death hit then you get nothing. Earlier choices of that person gain 0.1 points, in order of placement of team entry.

 

Basically it makes the scoring system even more complex.

 

Joey Feek points below...

 

11 teams score big time points with the death of a now world famous ill blogging country singer almost no one ever heard of before late last year. Well 10 teams get lots and Deathray gets fifteen and a half.

 

Shaun of the Dead gets the most with 46 points. Sir Creep gets 45.3 & Morbid Kid gets 45.1.

Not Sir Peter Maxwell Davies gets off the marks with 40.9 points. Maryport pulls down 40.8, with the Unknown Man gaining 40.7 points. Hein with 40.2 ahead of Toast with 40 points. 35.6 points to Dead Cow and 35.4 to Captain Chorizo who now leads after his 4th hit.

 

Largest looser was Uschi who slipped from 3rd place now down to 9th.

When you explain it like that it is really complex.

 

I never really got the hang of the earlier system - even though I won under those rules.

 

Would it save valuable man hours if it was as simple as every pick below a dead one just moving up to fill the void and each team just lining up 10pts for first, 9 for second etc. Meaning the most a team could score - without bonus points - would be a nice round 100 if every death on that team was the person in 1st place at that time, and the whole team pegged out in a year. There's a - sort of - wonderful roundness to that.

Please don't confuse me with having to think of a decent answer to a complicated question. I think I've got the hang of NAP's intention on how he wanted to see it work in the round. If I'm doing anything with the points distribution it will only be a tinkering round the edges to stop such as 5 people all being tied on the same score.

 

Apologies Mary.

 

Anyway, Nancy - No More.

Not Sir Peter Maxwell Davies gains 40.2 points, Uschi gets 35 points and Deathray bags 25.1 points. Also scoring with a sub pick is gcreptile, 25 points to you.

If the rumours of Lloyd Shapley's demise are true, I'm about to get another hit, but one far too soon:

Better that than rumours of Glen Campbell's ability to keep breathing into 2017
