Joey Russ 7,173 Posted August 20, 2017 As gcreptile had said, we are getting way too good at dead pooling. 14/50 dead, and it's only August. I think we could reach 26 deaths, where it's literally impossible to not get a score of 0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted September 28, 2017 Fuck sake. I take a few weeks away from the DL and carnage occurs. I'll try and provide updates for LaMotta, Dawn, Booth and Hefner throughout the day, and then I'll probably retire back to Uni life until whenever there's another hit. Edit: Liz Dawn wasn't in the top 50? I'm shocked, yet slightly relieved. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted September 28, 2017 Those who thought Jake LaMotta would punch his way through another year will be raging 'bull!' when they see the scoreboard, as the death of LaMortta leaves a few teams on the ropes.

The Dead Cow 620 Posted September 28, 2017 Tony Booth's departure makes little change with regards to the scores. Only 3 teams can confess to thinking he'd see the year out. Scores! 1st - Drol - 21 points 2nd - Grim Up North - 31 points 3rd - The Unknown Man - 37 points =4th - Bibliogryphon - 40 points =4th - Dr_T - 40 points 6th - msc - 41 points =7th - Bert Trautmann - 44 points =7th - Shaun of the Dead - 44 points =7th - The Mad Hatter - 44 points =10th - Book - 48 points =10th - Death Impends - 48 points 12th - CaptainChorizo - 49 points =13th - gcreptile - 51 points =13th - GraveDanger - 51 points 15th - Phantom of the Midway - 53 points 16th - Garn2 - 54 points 17th - YoungWillz - 56 points 18th - Joeyruss - 63 points 19th - WednesdayAddams - 67 points 20th - Deathray - 68 points 21st - Switch - 75 points 22nd - Toast - 76 points 23rd - Dead Cow - 77 points 24th - CharonsCrew - 79 points 25th - rockhopperpenguin - 82 points =26th - Pedro67 - 87 points =26th - esher - 87 points 28th - Angels - 119 points 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dead Cow 620 Posted September 28, 2017 Hugh Hefner's gone stiff and it's a big one, with the scoreboard being blown all over. Drol still somehow manages to keep a hold on his primary position and is looking stronger than ever. Here are the scores! 1st - Drol - 25 points =2nd - Grim Up North - 40 points =2nd - Bibliogryphon - 40 points 4th - Shaun of the Dead - 44 points 5th - msc - 49 points 6th - Dr_T - 50 points 7th - Book - 51 points =8th - Bert Trautmann - 52 points =8th - CaptainChorizo - 52 points 10th - Phantom of the Midway - 54 points 11th - gcreptile - 55 points 12th - YoungWillz - 56 points 13th - The Unknown Man - 57 points 14th - Death Impends - 58 points 15th - The Mad Hatter - 61 points 16th - Garn2 - 66 points 17th - WednesdayAddams - 67 points 18th - GraveDanger - 70 points 19th - Toast - 76 points 20th - CharonsCrew - 79 points 21st - Joeyruss - 82 points 22nd - Deathray - 86 points =23rd - Pedro67 - 87 points =23rd - esher - 87 points 25th - Switch - 89 points =26th - Dead Cow - 97 points =26th - rockhopperpenguin - 97 points 28th - Angels - 119 points 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyhow, bad luck to the teams who thought he would survive the year out... Thanks. I had him, but it's not like I'm a contender for winning anyway! Picked my team mostly at random, I didn't know much about most of them. This has been my first year playing both this and the Derby Dead Pool. I'm doing slightly better in the main game, was about 65th or so until recently, but a slew of recent deaths I didn't have knocked me to 95th, and ironically I didn't have Gord Downie in that, so goodbye top 100! It's been a fun and interesting learning curve though. I'm putting more thought into next year's team. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted October 23, 2017 Gord Downie's tragic demise has been a Long Time Coming and the 3 teams who thought he would see the year out will feel So Hard Done By. With regards to the scores, some position changes in the bottom half of the scoreboard, but nothing significant. Here are the scores! 1st - Drol - 25 points =2nd - Grim Up North - 40 points =2nd - Bibliogryphon - 40 points 4th - Shaun of the Dead - 44 points 5th - msc - 49 points 6th - Dr_T - 50 points 7th - Book - 51 points =8th - Bert Trautmann - 52 points =8th - CaptainChorizo - 52 points 10th - Phantom of the Midway - 54 points 11th - gcreptile - 55 points 12th - YoungWillz - 56 points 13th - The Unknown Man - 57 points 14th - Death Impends - 58 points 15th - The Mad Hatter - 61 points 16th - Garn2 - 66 points 17th - WednesdayAddams - 67 points 18th - Toast - 76 points =19th - GraveDanger - 82 points =19th - Joeyruss - 82 points 21st - Deathray - 86 points =22nd - Pedro67 - 87 points =22nd - esher - 87 points 24th - Switch - 89 points 25th - CharonsCrew - 92 points =26th - Dead Cow - 97 points =26th - rockhopperpenguin - 97 points 28th - Angels - 121 points 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dead Cow 620 Posted October 23, 2017 As Scott Putesky (Daisy Berkowitz) starts pushing up the daisies, further rocking the scoreboard, Drol must be thinking 'Sweet Dreams Are Made of This' as he extends his lead. Here are the scores! 1st - Drol - 25 points 2nd - Shaun of the Dead - 44 points 3rd - Grim Up North - 45 points =4th - Bert Trautmann - 52 points =4th - CaptainChorizo - 52 points 6th - gcreptile - 55 points 7th - Book - 56 points 8th - The Unknown Man - 57 points 9th - Bibliogryphon - 58 points 10th - msc - 60 points 11th - The Mad Hatter - 61 points 12th - Dr_T - 65 points =13th - Garn2 - 66 points =13th - YoungWillz - 66 points 15th - WednesdayAddams - 68 points 16th - Death Impends - 69 points 17th - Phantom of the Midway - 71 points 18th - Toast - 79 points =19th - esher - 87 points =19th - Pedro67 - 87 points =21st - Deathray - 88 points =21st - Joeyruss - 88 points 23rd - CharonsCrew - 92 points =24th - GraveDanger - 97 points =24th - rockhopperpenguin - 97 points 26th - Switch - 106 points 27th - Dead Cow - 118 points 28th - Angels - 127 points 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GraveDanger 22 Posted October 27, 2017 This game has fluctuated so much throughout the year. It was only about 6 months ago when I was in Joint 1st with only one hit and now I've been completely decimated by several deaths, notably recently Hefner, Downie and Berkowitz, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
