The Dead Cow

Inverse Dead Pool 2017

Recommended Posts

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.

Some peoples chances might have been KO'd due to the demise of Jake LaMotta...

Looks like The Dead Cow hasn't logged in since the 9th. That's fine, I'm sure he's having a good time at the college that he's at...

While you are waiting for him you could update The Jokers Deadpool scoreboard ;-)

My title defence, which was knackered, is now even more knackeredder.

Most people seemed to think that Tony Booth wouldn't make it, and they were right...

Ah, I placed Hugh Hefner way too high. Any chance of me making a comeback has now been completely diminished...

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.

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.

Drol really seems knows which people will survive the year, and which people will die...

Joint 2nd for me. This is a high scoring year. Normally you need to be looking at less than 20 to be in with a shout.

I’m assuming not a lot of people had Gord Downie on their team. 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.

If and when Berkowitz's death is confirmed (it's looking very likely), I'd like a "throwing in the towel" emoji for this thread ha ha...

 

Think a few of us had him...

Drol didn’t have him. Looks like he’ll probably extend his lead even more now...

Damn this has scuppered my chances for this year and I thought Greg Gilbert was the one I had to worry about.

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.

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.

Hmmm - I look at Drol's list and whilst I'm not giving up sadly I just think this is all over - well done Drol - top picks.

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,
