If I was going to make one serious prediction here though - I think we might have the usual Deathrace situation of the defending champion doing well but not retaining the title.

Yeah, am going to assume that, in the grand scheme of things, giving DI and Rad a 1000 point lead head start wasn't the wisest strategy... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 9, 2019 5 hours ago, MrWonderful said: Didn't know where to put this, as I am a relatively new lurker and decided to make an account. My friends and I did our first death pool more than a couple of years ago, where the 4 of us picked just 2 celebrities each, and the contest was over when someone had their 2 picks die. We enjoyed it so much (the winner had Zsa Zsa Gabor and Billy Graham) that the 4 of us decided to have a more-encompassing 2019 Death Pool draft, with 8 categories and where you pick 2 celebrities for each category....... (SNIP) In doing my research, I based a lot of it on this site and just reading the comments. If this was the wrong thread to post this in, sorry about that. May the force be with me! “Ask A Deathlister” maybe a better spot for discussion(?). Hey there are no set rules, feel free to develop (and later tweak) any kind of DL you like. I run a small one with 12 people or so and we have a few broad categories like that. And we also don’t have all gung ho players so we tone it down and stick to somewhat larger names, more like the actual DL. It’s a struggle for me lol. Anyway, have fun.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 9, 2019 I just found a wonderful name that could have been had for DeathRace, and of course everything else (article from Dec 27). If I was in DL Cup for February, a shoe-in! But alas, I'm likely on a 'bye'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlikely- it was not known she was publicly ill at all and it's been said her colleagues only found out since new year that was ill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadGuy 1,614 Posted January 12, 2019 Watch this space... if reports of Shirley Boone's demise are confirmed tonight (so far some tabloids like Radar Online and Life and Times of Hollywood reporting, dunno if those count), I win the Deathrace because she was my joker... 1449 + (354 x 2) = 2157 Would be my first deadpool win ever. And I think a record-fast Deathrace win as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
