Pick dead celebrities! Win money!! I will put up $20 for the winner, and I'm sure Syd could come up with a sweet title for the winner too. It goes like this:

-List 10 living celebrities. Once you post your list, you are locked into the list.
-Each death earns points based on age. If your 24-year old dies, you would get 100-24= 76 points. A 98-year old earns you 2 points. Don't pick someone over 100, dumbass.
-You are allowed to pick another person if a death opens a spot on your list.
-Lists are due and deaths start counting on January 15.
-Contest ends on December 15 and payment will be made shortly after (in time for Christmas).

I actually floated this idea around a while back. It didn't go over well. But if enough people are into it, I'll enter it.

Yes Vald, but I am not responsible for the actions of any contestants. And you can't collect prize while incarcerated.

This is so morbid. You're all really fucked up.

I'll have my picks in by the end of the week.

7. Olivia de Havilland

Yeah, I'm kind of a dick, especially since I like Carl, Kirk, Sid, Olivia and Yogi. So I hope I'm wrong.

I think this is as much as a "I don't want to die" list, as it is my official entry:

1. Christopher Lee
2. Sean Connery
3. Jake "The Snake" Roberts
4. Leonard Nimoy
5. Grace Lee Whitney
6. Mel Brooks
7. James Garner
8. Shirley Temple
9. Verne Troyer
10. Bob Barker

And, most of these people are in their 80s, so even if I am right, I am not scoring a lot of points.

Lando to die? That is harsh. I think Douche might want to change his 9 or 7 pick.

He's banking on Hef dying, being resuscitated, and dying again. Bold strategy.

Abe Vigoda is dead.

It's just that no one has the heart to tell him...

Reminder: starts on Saturday, get your picks in. Also, I'm thinking about adding a small monthly prize, maybe pick one person for that month for $5? I need some ideas.
