While I'm disappointed I lost my lead that I had for almost all of 2017, I applaud DeathImpends on his comeback. :clap:Congrats on your win. :champagne:

Gord Downie played the drums so bonus points for many.

Rad Guy 30.8 plus 12.  Captain Chorizo 45.7 plus 18.

Jiroemon Kimura 35.6 plus 14.  The Unknown Man 35.5 plus 14.

msc 25.4 plus 10.   Maryport 40.3 plus 16.  Deathers 30.2 plus 12.  

Book 30.1 plus 12.  Morbid Kid 35 plus 14.

 

On the same day 17th October, Danielle Darrieux died.  This was a double day hit for Book.  She was down to score 20 points and depending on who died first, her or Gord Downie each death should affect the others score.  I don't know now who died first so will count it as a draw and not move the team members up or down but also I'll provide a special bonus of 20 points for the double hit.  So with the bonus of 8 points that's another 48.

 

On the 18th Nov, Malcolm Young died and provided 20 basic points plus 8 bonus points for I'mNotHades.

 

Final hit of the year looks to have been Rose Marie, on the 28th Dec. The Dead Cow pulls in 40.1 basic points plus 24 bonus points.  Death Impends adds 68 points and I add 32 points to my score.

 

the bonus hand out for not playing subs is this year one short rated at 10 bonus points for Billiogryphon, I'mNotHades and Maryport.  If two were blank then together they score 25 points to Jiroemon Kimura and Prosperina.

 

DDT wins a bonus few points for again playing an adventurous team - almost the same line up as last year's effort.  25 extra points on that basis.  

 

And as Book was the 13th finisher, an extra 50 points are added.

 

Well done Death Impends. Left it till three days and the last hit of the year to re-pass RadGuy.

 

 

20th and final leader board for 2017 was...

 

1st - 411.7 points - Death Impends

2nd - 378.8 points - RadGuy

3rd - 323.2 points - Drol

4th - 322.9 points - Maryport

5th - 314.0 points  - Morbid Kid

6th - 308.5 points - The Dead Cow

7th - 295.5 points - Captain Chorizo

8th - 294.2 points - msc

Position 8 & 1/2 -  262.6 points - Book

9th - 248.3 points - gcreptile

10th - 231.5 points - Prosperina

11th - 227.2 points - Pedro67

12th - 219.3 points - Jiroemon Kimura

 

14th - 188.1 points - Deathers

15th - 179.9 points - Uschi

16th - 179.1 points - I'mNotHades 

17th - 176.9 points - Bibliogryphon

18th - 168.2 points - time

19th - 156.2 points - DDT

20th - 154.5 points - The Unknown Man

21st - 130.5 points - Toast

22nd - 120.2 points - RottenAli

23rd - 119.3 points - Joey Russ

24th - 115.7 points - LFN

25th - 82.4 points - Young Willz

26th - 79.7 points - Tick Tock

Well played Death Impends ! I'll happily take 10th place in my first ever bash at a Dead Pool ( I changed my handle a couple of months ago)

I believe the limit is two subs?

Yes, there is a limit of two subs, I'm taking down all the names right now. This year every one who puts down three or more sub names will get 10 minus points if those people die. LOL.

And my team...

 

because we are now in 2018, I trip the dateline curse and can only enter 9 names.  Thus my whole team from last year (minus the two hits) is carried into this year.

 

1. Valerie Harper

2. Ed Asner

3. Carl Reiner

4. Betty White

5. Marty Allen

6. Mel Brooks

7. Nanette Fabray

8. Carol Channing

9. Jerry Stiller

 

Sub 1. David Hedison

Sub 2. Bobby Vinton (new for this year)

 

If anyone else wants a team entry - just submit up-to 9 names and 2 subs, any time during this year.

 

So yet again I'm back-dating the start of this pool to Boxing Day (26th Dec 2017) and a number of teams are off the mark. 

Hits on Rose Marie, Carman Franco and Erica Garner.

 

Won't do these 8 teams much good because I'm not rewarding them to any degree. 

 

Plus a real first 25pt sub hit for gcreptile getting Thomas S Monson.

 

1st Leader board of 2018

 

1st - 26.0 points - gcreptile

2nd - 2.4 points - Sean

3rd - 1.3 points - Phantom of the Midway

=4th - 1.1 points - Death Impends

=4th - 1.1 points - Prophet

=4th - 1.1points -  Drol

7th - 1.0 points - The Dead Cow

8th - 0.5 points - time. (just for saying she was on the cusp of your list)

=9th - the other 22 teams.

 

gcreptile, PotM, Sean, TDC, Prophet, Drol and DI can now add an extra name(s) into their 2018 teams. Either promotion of a sub or introduction of a new name(s).

Question(s): The teams we posted in this thread, do they count?

 

Does my sub jump in for Erica Garner? Do I get points for Thomas S. Monson?

I'll rev up Stirling Moss into my team (is that into Rose Marie's spot or at the end?) since I wanted to pick him somewhere but completely forgot.

And if I may use my sub... I'd like to place Nobby Stiles behind Johnny Hubbard and in front of John McCain.

Likewise, if I'm entitled to replace Erica Garner Carmen Franco. I'd like to place France Gall at the front of my team.

sorry missed those - I'll sort it out in a minute - but yes, you can move any of your team around and bring in any other name to bring your squad back to 12 names.

and you can nominate a replacement sub - which could win you a further 25 points latter on in the year.

I had it down that you got a point for Carmen Franco - but yes, France Gall in for your number 1 spot.

I'd rather pick Philomena Lynott as a pick and keep Ami Brown is subs. Think it is OK.

and because you had a pre season hit you can bring a new sub in that could win you more points later in the year.

I already edited the team. Lynott in place of Remigino, Remigino last. Sub are mantained Leavelle and Brown. Hope there is no problem with that.

Yeah I had her at 4th, because I thought Rae and Brackers would go sooner, and I thought Blanco was nearer the end with her illness (she's nearer the start so a summer demise).
