The Hartlepool Deadlypool

[YoungWillz 19,106]

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

Gcreptile is due a unique hit on Lloyd Shapley. That's 25 basic points, 10 bonus points.

Not Sir Peter Maxwell Davies gets a unique hit on surprise-surprise, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies. 40 basic points and 16 bonus points.

Also not affecting the above "uniqueness" of that hit, Death Impends put SPMD down as a sub and thus gets 25 points, and the lead.

CAN only find three teams having chosen CANcer suffering CANadian Rob Ford. Strangely, CAN it be that they all get the same number of basic points? CAN't think it's right, BUTT then again I've checked and it does appear Toronto to be correcto. ASS unwell ASS these thirty terribly tubby points, Switch gets two CRACKING micro points, Hein get a single FAT one and Dr Zorders just hASS to be happy about shedding his MERE (or more likely MAJOR) of a game and just getting off the BELLY of the leader board.

My pick Jean-Pierre Coffe is dead:

 

http://www.gala.fr/l_actu/news_de_stars/jean-pierre_coffe_est_decede_362183

 

I will look out for a Le Monde obit, to fulfil that "reliable source of international news" criterion. I don't believe he'll get a DDP-qualifying obit.

 

Maybe the french version of Time or Newsweek, Le Point, already suffices:

Who? Chancing your arm with that guy GCR! I'll give you the points, seems only right. 25 big ones, 10 bonus for its uniqueness.

Now then... AND FINALLY, BIG HIT DEATHPOOLING NEWS... "And it's good night from him!" To Little Ronnie Corbett. LFN had him at the very bottom of his team list. So far down I had to look under the subs bench. 25 points and four candles due.

Sorry Captain Chorizo, you are short of 45 points for Kris Travis. Obit in the Mirror is AOK. MSC needs 20.1 points too. This also adds an extra 5 points weighting to the Howard Marks hit for The Captain.

Also in the above scores I've awarded 4 teams a "princely point". To mark the unexpected passing of his Purpleness.

Aw c'mon, ages since I did really well in a dead pool but edging towards the podium with half a dozen of the ten left alive. If only Glen Campbell would do the decent thing the rest might all die in order!

Hmm

 

Five of my top six are now contributing to the scoreboard with only my #5 pick - Glenn Campbell - giving me reason to regret a bad choice. Zsa Zsa and Billy Graham languish in the lower placings - still hopeful of a few points from at least one of them.
