That would be a compliment to him.
I think you misspelled “raving lunatic.”
I think he’s great in Kitchen Nightmares where he goes into a failing restaurant and helps turn it around.
Tarantino edits his movies?!? NO WAY!! There hasn’t been a single frame of film exposed that QT didn’t assume was genius and had to be in his movie. She must of died from boredom. Poor dear.
Sigmagirl had her. That puts her ahead of all the other people with zero points - I use number of deaths as the tie-breaker.
A veritable Judgment of Solomon. 
My 2011 list [That is, the one out of three that I am 99% certain I am using] now has 20 people on it, waiting to get weeded.
With my luck, 11 of them will die and my theme will be shot.
Gordon visited this guy’s restaurant in 2007 - that’s a bit of a long lag time. I’m thinking we can’t blame this one on Big Sweary.
My strategy is working! 
(Of course, she could have died before her birthday on July 4, giving me a solitary point, which would have been kinda cool too.)
I understand the concept of “number of deaths” being a tiebreaker.
But, for the life of me, I can’t figure if that means you earned .9 .5 or .1 points here.
[Like the Stars in Mario Party they must have a coin equivalent, not that I know what that is.]
As long as it’s > 0, it doesn’t matter to me!
Maybe that will be my cunning plan next year: A list composed exclusively of centenarians. I could have the highest score ever for a person with no score at all.
Then I should look at his 2008 guests for my list next year.
It would artificially inflate (equally I might add) but why not start at 125 versus a 100 for the first number in the formula. That way Sigma Girl would get 25 points for her pick and presumably ahead of the person that pick a guy who croaked at 105 yrs old.
Or perhapse picking someone and not scoring is a badge of honor?
For my spreadsheet to work, you get 0.01 for anyone 100 or over. That gets rounded out so you never see it.
You’ve found me out. In fact, I’ve re-revised my strategy: I want to pick people older than 100 and hope to come out with negative points.
(I know it doesn’t work that way, amarone.)
If Magic The Gathering can have a Deck that wins on turn 0, I wouldn’t doubt this could happen. Go for it.
One wonders how the awards would work for a list so… fragile.
Film director Arthur Penn; no Segways or hay bales were reportedly involved.
If you don’t speak M:TG :
[spoiler]
You choose to play second in a two player game. Your ability to “respond” to the first player allows the deck to work.
The deck is constructed [not stacked mind you] with key cards each to their limit of 4 in a shuffled deck of 60.
The deck allows you to start the game with a card in play. That card sets the dominoes for other cards, setting the stage for other cards. - A Goldilocks Environment to be sure, but it is there, and it is possible to probable.
The card that starts the game in play makes the other player yield to you, and they must continue to yield unto you pass. Each card sets up and is used be the card after it. 32 Damage is dealt to your opponent. All players start at 20. You lose immediately at 0, to say nothing of -12.
Because you do this before your opponent draws their first card [before their Upkeep, technically] you have won the game before Turn 1 started. [/spoiler]
Arthur Penn, film director, dies at 88. 12 points.
He directed Bonnie and Clyde and Little Big Man, among others.
Greg Giraldo, stand-up comic and judge on this year’s Last Comic Standing, is no longer standing. Dead at 44.
