Was Little Pig banned recently? If so, should points be awarded to a person who is no longer able to participate?
Nabeel Qureshi has died.
According to the 2016 Death Pool rules:
However this was not included in the original rules for this year.
Death Shroom, your thoughts?
Congrats on taking the lead!
dammit
Given that I did not start the year running this joyous gathering of breath-stopping prognosticators, it seems only fair to carry out the rules as they were posted…
That said, there seems to be some kismet in earning your first Death Pool points of the year after being terminated.
66 Points, Unique Pick, and leading the pack: Carnivorous Plant

Thank you, I am sure that it will be temporary, dammit.
Not sure of the veracity but “The oldest person in the world dies at 117 years old” according to the AOL link below
Violet Moss Brown, also known as “Aunt V,” died in Jamaica where she’s lived there for most of her life. Brown was also reportedly the last living person who was a subject of Queen Victoria when she ruled Great Britain.
Warning: VERY ANNOYING Autoplay video link
So we’ve got a carnivorousplant in the lead, and a Death Shroom running the game.
I for one welcome our new vegetable overlords. 
I am merely a harmless phungi…aka: (fun guy, first name starts with “Ph”)… that said, I do grow on you…
A likely story!
Hey! I can see my house from here!
Surely at least the corpses are lichen this.
Time to roll out the awards. World ends on 23 September (again) - Is the end of the world on September 23 and what is David Meade's theory about Planet X and the Great American solar eclipse?
Poster with the youngest list will win regardless what our potted plants think. There will be a massive tie for the latest death. Most unique deaths will be decided as well based on the initial lists.
As a plus, we will have an early entry submittal period for 2018 and the zombie death pool.
Aren’t all zombies, like, dead?
The Brain has stopped thinking.
