Recommended Posts

Well done to the four people on nil points who have so far guessed correctly who would not survive four times out of four. Excellent fourcasting skills!

Holy smokes batman! Our fearsomely foresightful foursome are still free of points five fatalities in. Phenominal!

Dodged another one with Dean Francis...phew, phew....

Dean Francis's demise deals a blow to six teams, among them CastAway, whose loss reduces us to just three hit-free teams. Though most of Francis's selectors had him in a lightweight position, this likely leaves Bentrovato and paddyfool down for the count.

Congratulations all 35 other punters! You're now officially better than random (as it should be).

I didn't enter that many deadpools, but I'll find myself refreshing this one because my name is currently at the top :D The scores between me and the next 20 names isn't that much though - in my top 5 I've got four nonagenarians (Betty White, Bob Barker, Dick van Dyke, Doris Day) who all it takes is a tad of pneumonia to knock them over. I've also got Donald Trump at #4, as long as fox media doesn't turn against him I don't think he'll have a heart attack! 

 

We'll see, thanks for hosting so far @Death Impends, this year is a close one!

Close, indeed, partly because it's been a slow first six months this year.  Any of the top 20 or so teams could still take the lead if they miss just one big landmine.  Still a proper achievement to have kept a clean slate, though!

Only just caught up with this again. Forgot I had Dean Francis and am perplexed why I had him so high when he had terminal cancer. Beginners error/outright laziness on my part for not double checking list. Always next year I suppose.

Really glad Lord Carrington didn't make it, as I would totally have picked him.

Dodged another one with Charlotte Rae...

Sir Creep and theoldlady bet that Mrs. Garrett's upbeat disposition could overcome the Fact of Life that old age and bone cancer don't mix. They were wrong, and Charlotte certainly won't be a Rae of sunshine for their prospects, with Sir Creep now dead last and theoldlady's first fatality reducing the no-hit club to two.

How is this possible?

 

I surely can't last much longer at the top, I'm getting faint with the thin air...

Can I just point out how well you've done as a collective so far, despite my muddying the water? 7 deaths and just over 7 months in, and 24 out of 25 of the list above are still alive and kicking.

LOL we are very comfortable once again assuming last place in this DP.  It's our happy place.

Looking at McCain and Bracknell alone, the odds have to be pretty good that that score will be at least 5/10 by the end of the year. 

 

EDIT: Sir Creep, I wouldn't advise getting too comfortable in last place. I fully expect my team to reclaim it before too long.

So both John Key and Young Willie have Aretha.  Shakeup coming?

Yeah. I picked Aretha quite high on the basis I had her in my DDP team.

 

Unfortunately, the main DDP team is doing rather well this year, so it's a win win situation. Or win lose. Or something. :lol:
