psq43 0 Posted April 15, 2009 How do all, I'm a new user to Deathlist's forums, so thought I'd better show my face and say hi! I happened across the site after a discussion with a co-worker about an old Sweepstake that used to run at work involving celebs, and our desire to inject a morale boost into the workplace, and what better way to do it than by having a punt on when the reaper will drop the final curtain for one plucky celeb! It's really taken off with over 55 of us in work placing a 50p a week stake and selecting our hopefuls from your list, and a few others that maybe deserve that final moment of fame! We just hope that the moment someone follows the spotlight in the sky, those in power here on Deathlist.net update it asap! Does anybody else have a similar thing going on with workers or friends??

Paul Bearer 6,101 Posted April 19, 2009 Welcome to DL psq43. The pool I run in my workplace has around 120+ people in it and the winnings at the moment will be almost £500. I'd be interested to know your rules! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be interested to know your rules! Rules are pretty simple. 50p a week, pick a celeb, either from the Deathlist or from your head. If you leave or get sacked, hard cheese your cash stays in the pool so when your celeb dies, we have a "rollover" and the pool keeps rolling! Upon death and we have a winner, the players can choose to either stay in wth same celeb, or drop out! Thats about it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My rules are similar, but I pick the names (too many to go round everybody asking them to name one). I've run it for almost 6 years now. Still haven't won the damn thing yet . Every body gets a new name when we have a winner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
