gcreptile 10,970 Posted March 18, 2016 Yes, congratulations to those who took a risk on him. Thomas Jefferson Survives is looking better with each day, now that all his gambles are turning to his favour. I thought he was a 50:50 case and changed his "expected points value" almost weekly. So in Dezember he was worth 5 expected points for me (10 base pts*50% of dying*100% chance of obit - no chance for unique points). That was exactly where I aimed to make a cut between those picks for the DDP and those for other pools. So he ended up in my Shaun's Deadpool team (that one rewards younger picks more).

charon 4,943 Posted March 18, 2016 Two types of cancer cured in December was it? At the same time? Never believed him, he was a cert this year. It's the fuckin mice I feel sorry for, a 65 % chance of getting his shit, and for no reason. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charon 4,943 Posted March 21, 2016 Brother spent last 5 days at his side, wouldn't think he'll be too long. Rob Ford’s family is trying to make him as comfortable as possible as he continues to battle cancer in palliative care at Mount Sinai Hospital, his office has confirmed. “Family members have been with him around the clock,” Ford’s brother and former city councillor Doug told the Star. “I have been at the hospital for the last five days and nights by his side. “Rob is a fighter and continues to fight. We are so grateful for all the support for him from all over the world it is incredible!! We want to thank the Doc’s and Staff at the hospital they all have been amazing.” The former mayor’s condition hasn’t changed since Thursday, when his office put out a statement.

Ford will probably see you safe if you've got until March 2017 for him to drop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember my first DDP hit well: Etta James in 2012. Of course, it should have been Gerry Rafferty, but I sent the 2011 list to the wrong email, and promptly saw half the list die. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
