        Great, my list is confirmed. I might be a noobe for the deadpool, but I think I'm going to do ok!

          You have a couple unique picks that have never been picked in the past. They are the big points.

            I would like to submit a team like I was going to do last year, but alas, I am just not cynical enough and can't think of enough people who are going to die...and alas, my ace card Margaret Thatcher just keeps on hanging on in there

              ...although perhaps that is just wishful thinking.

                Predicting death isn't cynical, it's talent damn it!

                  Ozzy -

                  #6 - Good pick but I can't find a date of birth. Can you PM a link?

                  #9 - "superstar"? Hmmm.

                  #16 - Not eligible in that they are included in the definition covered by Rule 23 (d). To be eligible they must conform to Rule 23 (c). Sorry, it would be too easy otherwise.

                  I need your subs.

                    OzzyKP is the 4th official entry.

                    17-25 were moved up to replace #16.

                      Ming has the 5th entry. I cleared off the dust and used last years submission (with 3 subs) as per your request.

                        Richard Holbrooke is dead so we can stop choosing him for next year's pool.

                        Ozzy - your picks have moved up.

                        He was on my reserve list. I didn't think he'd last long enough.

                          Thank you... now maybe somebody might actually die this time

                            Since I'm not in last years pool I hope everyone on my list will hold on until the new year. They say people like to hang on for the holidays and then pass away shortly thereafter!

                              The Hearse Chasers will be in once again, after finally getting on the board this year.

                                Sickening. Hoping people will die after the holidays just so you can win a stupid game.
