Welcome, morbid new friend! :grin:

Ah, the first to post Yoko Ono this year!

Welcome to our game!

You might want to add some alternates as well in case one of those on your list kicks it before the end of the year.

Otherwise, you could end up playing with fewer than 13 celebrities.

Just to note, I listed Yoko in post 92.

Welcome to the boards, new Yoko-listing Death Pooler!

Allecher, your list, with the Amazing Kreskin, is a good example of what I always mention in the OP, to use the celeb’s most common moniker. Would anyone know who Jorge Bergolio is, without his title?

As I cannot win this game in a conventional fashion, I am again going for the simple body count, not the score. Also i would like to remind everyone that -even if you do not die- it is an honor just to be nominated.

Welcome, @Gayandstupid! I’m straight but I’m sure we have other stuff in common. :thinking:

Can a mod please contact me about what seems to be an entry that has vanished? It was a new poster.

Maybe they’re catfishing you, er, punking you. :wink:

Am I the new poster whose entry vanished? I don’t see it anywhere yet.

Joe Biden was the first person on the list if that helps…

Are you by any chance @Gayandstupid?

No, it was not Culling the Herd. But Dung Beetle is on to something.

I am near to completing my own list, going to wait until just after Christmas. I still need to figure out how to divide up my choices, as I have twenty six. Thirteen will go here, thirteen on the other board where I run the pool.

Same thing happened to me with Patty Andrews and Maria Tallchief, although I had dropped Andrews for not being worth enough points. Still kicking myself over Tallchief, because she would have been a unique pick, too.

I just had a resident in my building tell me that this game is sick. Several of us had been chatting and I mentioned how the game works.

I still say that if I had been able to be picked I’d be flattered. It would mean someone at least remembers me.

He died in 1957.
