Okay, I submitted a list, although I rarely pay any attention to celebrities

I'll be lucky if 20 of my guys/gals are actually not dead yet ...

Oh, I checked against a couple of lists, but who knows how accurate those are

A certain someone taught me to always check my data against reasonability and I feel like I should put the caveat for that reason, as I have no reasonability check here

I'm not to fussed about who I pick, so if someone could give me a link to an auto team picker that'd be a great help.

**snoopy369** · December 28, 2007, 17:17

Open wiki, pick any of the pools there, take the top 25 non-dead ....

Or, for a lark, go to www.usweekly.com and pick the first 25 people you see

All of my picks save about 5 were from clicking on random article on Wikipedia. If they were older than 60 then I put them on my list. Hence they should all pass rule 23a) and be allowed, but I'm not certain if all of them would get an obitury...

Krill & snoopy369 - Your teams are being prosessed.

If your chosen celeb is already dead - We are checking each as we go but it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure your picks are still living... Likewise it is your responsibility to claim your points in the event of a death. We have well over 100 picks in the pool already. I can't possibly keep track of that many myself.

If your celeb does not get a valid obit then that again is your loss. As we are checking celeb eligibility ahead of time I don't see this as a serious issue with the majority of celebs. Finding an exact birthdate is a larger problem...

snoopy369 - You're team is almost approved. I need an answer to my PM question however as either celeb will be eligible.

**SlowwHand** · December 28, 2007, 21:20

Different, Krill.

I have one question about why 1 particular name comes up so often, but I'll wait until it's all officially sealed.

**Wezil** · December 28, 2007, 22:13

Krill's "Team n00b" has been approved.

We now have 13 registered teams and one confirmed player left to submit. Our celeb Pool contains 171 different celebs.

There still time left to play if anyone wants to assemble a team.

That celeb is on every list except one thus far. I hope they have their affairs in order.

**Krill** · December 28, 2007, 23:10

Mine?

**Krill** · December 28, 2007, 23:11

And is it Paris Hilton? If so, wishful thinking...
