Celebrity Death Pool 2018

Rest in peace, Professor Hawking. Thank you for the 24 points!

I think I didn’t get credit for Dan Gurney. Him, Le Guin, and now Hawking :frowning: :frowning: :frowning: were all on my list.

He was only with us for a brief history of time.

You have 14 pts for 1(1). That would have to be Dan Gurney (a unique pick). Ursula K. LeGuin was only worth 12.

I did last year, I think. Dunno about this year. But, since time travel is, according to Hawking, theoretically possible, I’ll go back and add him real quick so I can claim points.

Yeah - another rapper <checks list in themed pool> dammit!

My first thought was “Woo-hoo, I finally got points for Hawking!” I’ve had him on my list for the last few years. Then I remembered that didn’t get a list submitted for this year, just a themed list in the other thread. :frowning:

My bad… Ursula Le Guin is a unique pick and 12 points for ataraxy22. Stephen Hawking is 14 points for: kay T, Dr. Girlfriend, 1b3bz18c9ed…, critter42, Labtrash, Maus Magill, ataraxy22, Grits and Hard Toast, tangent, krondys, computergeek, Oakminster… first points of the year for kay T, Dr. Girlfriend, Labtrash, Maus Magill, Grits and Hard Toast, tangent, krondys, Oakminster

bassed hound leads in points, and ataraxy22 leads with total picks and unique picks.

People should pay to be on my list. It’s like buying immortality.

That would have been a hell of a guess. He found gawd and has been out of the biz for a long time.

Nitpick: 24 points – but it looks like you scored it correctly.

One month after being hospitalized with the flu, Saints and Pelicans owner Tom Benson died this afternoon. He was 90 years old.

Representative Louise Slaughter, dead at age 88.

My Congresswoman.

Though worth a story on Ars, Adrian Lamo (the hacker who ratted out [Del]Bradley[/Del] Chelsea Manning) was, sadly, not actually a celebrity. 63 points not really gone to waste.

Former Australian Attorney-General Vanessa Goodwin dies after a battle with brain cancer at 48.

52 Points and a Unique Pick for Registered at Last, good for 4th place:
