                • I agree Winston and quite frankly I wrestled with it. What it came down to is this - I harangued the owners/moderators of this site about a Dead Pool for a veerrry long time. Once I finally attained the go ahead I then harangued posters on this site to submit a team. More than a dozen posters took the time and effort to do so in order to make the game happen. For me to bail on the game halfway through would be irresponsible and incredibly rude to all involved. I have an obligation to this thread and by the terms of the game the DP goes until the end of the calendar year.

                  • So stay on for good if you feel you have any obligations to posters or the site - or your own enjoyment. Or are you saying you're just hosting this thread out of duty now, no pleasure involved at all? Then I don't see that there's much point to it really.

                    • Back on topic, points for me!

                      RIP Estelle Getty; you were my favourite Golden Girl.



                      Second pick and unique too. I'm in the hunt now.

                        • Damn, I'm getting killed on untimely deaths. Her birthday is on the 25th of July. If her and Bhutto had had the decency to hang on for a few more days I'd be in the lead.

                                It was rather inconsiderate considering the honour you bestowed upon her by making her your 2nd choice. She should be ashamed, but you know how these big stars are.


                                LotC(2) was the only player to choose the once golden girl.

                                Ms. Getty was 84.

                                LotC scores the 25 point Unique Pick Award.

                                LotC -> 169 + 16 + 25 = 210 points

                                Well done.
