The Hare's Death Pool

[YoungWillz 21,037]

With a leaderboard on the way at the end of the week, just a reminder that you should get your teams for 2018 to me when you can.

 

If you haven't had an acknowledgement as yet, you haven't been entered.

 

I have 4 teams so far and only one casualty. Remember every team cost me an extra pound in 2018/9 for charity, so keep them coming...

[msc 18,439]

Given the Hares shortlist fiasco of 2017 (where I had to add about 5 subs at the last minute), I will send in a team very close to deadline. Remind me if I've forgotten nearer the time, thanks.

[YoungWillz 21,037]

More reminders shall follow...there will be no excuse for late entries....

[YoungWillz 21,037]

Wow, forgot to update this in the early hours of yesterday! Whoops!

 

Leaderboard follows shortly...

Once again I didn't put a lot of thought into this, and I sent it to YoungWilz as of now. I do have a name or two, however, that are names that are unknown to the casual player, so no chance of me revealing the list publicly before New Year's Day this time around...

Still hasn't given me an entry for next year...11 days and counting...

[msc 18,439]

Ah but Joey, wait till the day you close in on a deadpool win. I remember my (only) one well, which I discovered through a confirmation PM from MPFC. My first thought? "He must have sent it to the wrong person!"

It's like slow torture!

Wake up - check Death List activity for any deaths - relax,;repeat four or five times daily - go to sleep and repeat.

It's in the oven though - due to be born into the world on 29th December with the rest of my teams.

[msc 18,439]

Yeah, you don't want Leslie Philips to die in the next 10 days now!

[YoungWillz 21,037]

Deaths which might change everything:

 

Leslie Phillips, Leah Bracknell; Ted Mack; Simon Ricketts.

 

Of course, if Stephen Hawking dies on 31 December, you are probably unbeatable without someone else hitting two or three before then...

[msc 18,439]

Most in danger is one of:

 

 

03. Robert Clary

04. Beverly Cleary

09. Reverend Billy Graham

12. Edgar Ray Killen

13. Jim Leavelle

14. Norman Lloyd

15. Ted Mack (Aus Politician) (WILDCARD)

16. Jerry Maren

19. Sumner Redstone

23. Ian St John

24. Mary Wilson, Baroness Wilson of Rievaulx

 

Because I believe Death Impends is on for a hattrick of December 30th hits in this game. I support the demise of Edgar Ray Killen, because he's not very nice, and because no one has picked him on the Crowdsourced Deathlist...
