YoungWillz 21,026 Posted November 26, 2016 I had Fidel Castro quite low down thank goodness. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-38114953 I'd say nearly everyone had him on their list at varying levels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,956 Posted November 26, 2016 Thought "aw crap, I had him high up didn't I?" only to check and notice he wasn't there at all! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,437 Posted November 26, 2016 I had Castro in 7th place, though I did design my entire team as a jinx to try and "take one for the team", as it were. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted December 18, 2016 Zsa Zsa is really going to change this leader board Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dead Cow 620 Posted December 18, 2016 The shock demise of Zsa Zsa Gabor hasn't changed the top half of the leader board that much at all. msc and myself both receive 25 points whilst Pedro remains on course to win this ever-exciting dead pool. Here are the scores! 1st - Pedro67 - 21 points 2nd - Garn2 - 24 points 3rd - Dr_T - 27 points =4th - Death Impends - 31 points =4th - The Unknown Man - 31 points =6th - Book - 34 points =6th - YoungWillz - 34 points 9th - Toast - 37 points 10th - time - 44 points 11th - Morbidkid - 46 points 12th - Bibliogryphon - 47 points 13th - En Passant - 52 points 14th - CaptainChorizo - 53 points 15th - Magere Hein - 59 points =16th - Dead Cow - 60 points =16th - Switch - 60 Points 18th - Spade_Cooley - 67 points =19th - gcreptile - 71 points =19th - rockhopperpenguin - 71 points 21st - Deathray - 80 points 22nd - Sir Creep - 84 points 23rd - msc - 89 points 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,964 Posted December 19, 2016 Quite the massacre this year. Zsa Zsa's death at least makes my performance disappear into the outer reaches of the midfield. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pedro67 232 Posted January 1, 2017 Thanks Dead Cow. Much appreciation for running it, and glad to hear you will continue. Cue dreadful acceptance speech: I'd like to thank my Mum and Dad/Milkman, publicist, neurologist.......... Roll on 2017 comp, and good luck all 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
