HW is a good pick

Posted: Jan 12 2011 08:56 pm

Here are my 10. It was actually hard to come up with only 10. Sarge, I'd suggest putting everyone's finalized picks in the first post once the deadline passes.

1) Michael Douglass
2) Kim Jong-il
3) Verne Troyer
4) Doyle Brunson
5) Andy Whitfield
6) Aretha Franklin
7) Louie Anderson
8) Nancy Reagan

Zsa Zsa Gabor's leg.

And, for reasons cited as 'Feng Shui,' she will just be Zsa from now on.

Original post updated with picks. I've decided to throw out a $5 monthly prize to keep interest alive. PM me the name of any ONE celebrity you think will die in the month of February. The death of any unique pick will get you $5. If everyone picks Steve-O, nobody wins, so get creative. Those will be due by Jan 30, and can be changed up until midnight EST on the 30th.

Since Klimbatize is the only one who wants to send in a choice for February, he wins the five. I need your e-mail Klimb.

Very generous of you, but don't worry about it. Maybe we'll just skip the monthly pick idea and keep to a year-long contest.

And who had Zsa Zsa?

Pff, too obvious. She's been hanging on a string for months now. I hope everyone else on your list has the greatest health of their lives this year.

I'll agree with you on half of my list, but people like Torn and Steve-O...it's just time to go. Time to check out, fellas.

Posted: Feb 02 2011 11:38 pm

Oh, I didn't mean it like that, they can all die for all I care. Also, is there a reason why so many people picked Tara Reid?

Posted: Jun 24 2011 04:05 pm

Sadly, Peter Falk has died. I only glanced over everyone's list very quickly, but I'm pretty sure I'm the one who had him on their list.

Since a spot has opened up, I'm adding Steve Sabol of NFL Films fame.

Man, I can't believe how stubborn Zsa Zsa Gabor is. I was just checking her current status, seems she came out of a week long coma last month.

Posted: Jul 23 2011 03:49 pm

Well Aeonic and Mr Magog just took the lead with a strong 73 point jump!

Posted: Sep 12 2011 06:19 pm

I had Andy Whitfield. He died of cancer at 39 earlier today.

I don't know where Sarge is, but I regain the lead as I already had 17 points. Add 61 to that.

If Sarge ever reads this, I'm replacing him with Hugh Hefner.

Klimbatize, the Sydlexia.com patron saint of abandoned forum contests.

Posted: Sep 12 2011 09:14 pm

Abandoned my ass! Imma win that gift card.

Really it's just because there aren't that many celebrity deaths that people have predicted so this thread gets no action.

Posted: Sep 13 2011 09:32 am

Maybe you are just remembering it wrong. Happens all the time and is a way more plausible explanation.

Yeah I got you, don't worry.

Posted: Nov 04 2011 11:20 pm

I'm replacing Amy Winehouse with Matt Hardy.

Woo, I won!
