    Germanos scores his first hit of the season.

    Harry Mulisch was 83 and a unique pick for germanos (rank 8).

    (171 - 8) + (100 - 83) + 25
    = 205 points

        The signup for next year's DP will be about one month from now.

        There's always room for a new player.

            That's fine. But the position of "telling us how depraved and sick we are for having a dead pool" has been ably filled by DaShi.

            • I didn't do all that. All I did was comment on Sloww's description and humorously say it's so ****ed up if you think about it. Nothing more.

              You're reading too much into all my posts, Jrabbit.

              • My definition was succinct and clear. How else should I have described it?

                  You're reading too much into all my posts, Jrabbit.
                  Well, you're not a writer and you barged into that thread to call it stupid.

                  Look at the progression of posts:

                  Sloww:
                  We each submitted a list of people we thought would die this year.
                  Alby:
                  It sounds so ****ed up if you think about it.
                  Forgive me for thinking you were commenting on the dead pool as a whole, but it sure reads that way.

                            • I'd just like to say that I too think the Dead Pool is ****ed up and sick.
