Apolyton Celebrity Dead Pool 2009

[OzzyKP]

I saw somewhere that the drummer from Avenged Sevenfold died. Haven't seen an article and don't care enough to look it up since I'm sure he isn't on anyone's list.

As long as you don't put the cart before the horse.

Or put all your eggs in one basket.

Fat lady not yet singing...

The fat lady sang and went home.

How about some final scores so we can wrap this thing up?

[embalmer42]

I guess I got a private concert from her since she sang for me on February 22.


Maybe I'm just special.

[Wezil]

I need the final 2009 numbers for the all time list.

[Winston]

Hooray!

[Wezil]

Our game got better.

Jrabbit won the 2008 pool with 991 points and 5 hits. SlowwHand called 6 right last year for 1241 points.

There were 22 total hits and 4401 points for the players in 2008 (15 players) and 29 hits, 6523 points among 16 players last year.

We're getting better.

[embalmer42]

Humbug.

[Wezil]

2010 is your year embalmer.

[-Jrabbit]

I'm leaving for a tradeshow in the a.m. and am extremely busy, so confirming things will take time I do not have right now. I'll get to "official totals" as soon as I can, but Wezil's totals look fine in the interim...

And since there don't seem to be any late-reported deaths and we are past deadline, I can confirm SlowwHand as Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2009.

Put it in your sig, Tex!

[SlowwHand]

Done.

[Guynemer]

Congrats, Tex.

[SlowwHand]

Unlike sports, the kiss of death can come in handy.

[embalmer42]

Once again, an almost perfect plan is foiled by incompetent workers who can not even complete the most basic of assignments. I simply asked for one thing from my 20 picks and none of them could get it right. Pitiful.


But, from the person on the bottom of the pile to the one standing briefly on top of the mountain, I would like to send my congrat's to Slowwhand for a game well played

As Wezil has noted however, 2010 will be the year of the embalmer and all mortals shall tremble in my wake .....assuming they live that long.
