Yes, I hope that is what everyone is writing down.
IOW, their age as of 12/31/24 - 80, right?
What? I need context here. Who will be 80 at the end of 2024?
Use the age at the end of 2024. They get one point for every year over 80.
Sorry, the number we put down after their name is their age as of 12/31/24 minus 80.

If I had chosen Cale Yarborough and not Richard Petty I’d have to go with my alternate.
Yes, I saw that minus as a dash. You got it.

Here is the spreadsheet. Feel free to check for errors.
You scored Ronnie Milsap with twenty points on NortherYinzer’s list. Milsap is only a one pointer.
Kicks Little_Nemo under the table
Mooooommmmmm!!!
Fixed.
Why not allow everyone to edit the spreadsheet as their people die? I made a backup of the original document in case this gets messed up, mind you. I am happy to update as we go, but feel free to delete your own chosen people as they die and your score should update automatically. Use this one:
I want to thank @distaccato who went through the spreadsheet and made it very interactive. If someone dies on the overall Life Pool, we can just flip their switch to “dead” and the points will come off everyone who had that person. This is editable by anyone, but I have a backup copy if someone screws with it.
I feel like we should be doing some sort of updating in this thread, like posting that Bob Newhart just had a checkup and his doctor told him his cholesterol is looking good.
Franco is still dead.
Jimmy Carter. Still alive.
This is not what I had in mind.
Norman Jewison had died. There goes eighteen points.
