is it worth running a death pool for BBFans for 2007 or is it that over the lines of bad taste?

I've seen threads elsewhere, where people are positively chomping at the bit, hoping some celebrity will die, not of 'old age', but of a drugs overdose, anorexia, etc, because the poster is desperate for their prophesy to come true.

Strikes me as odd way to look at things.

Is this a death pool for BBfans or for slebs? {@}

You've reminded me, need to find a singer for my list for 2007.

Is this a list of who's going to die this year? And is Finchy going to give us points? Loving it.

What do you think of categories for the prospective stiffs?

Politics
Pop
Actor (UK)
Media celeb (not actor)
Sport
Hollywood
Royalty

What do you think? Have I missed anything?

Oh yes, and how about first famous death of 2007?

Is this really poor taste?

Good. ::lol::

If we're keeping with the poor taste, can I have James Brown as an early entrant? Or is he disqualified for being too 'last year' already?

Saddam would have been a sure bet as well.

Am struggling with my list at the moment-I keep thinking of suitable candidates and then remembering that they're dead already. :oops:

Going by the rules we play, all entries have to be in by midnight tomorrow.

Using CT's list, I'll go for:

Politics - Michael Foot
Pop - Vera Lynn
Actor (UK) - Norman Wisdom
Media celeb (not actor) - Patrick Moore
Sport - Alfredo Di Stefano
Hollywood - Kirk Douglas
Royalty - Prince Philip

Great choices, Morrissey! I'm going to have a good think about this overnight (and check they're not already dead!)

Am the reigning champ over here until I have to give the trophy back tomorrow.

We should have a prize-or points or something?

Mozza · **Joined:** 29 May 04, 0:06 **Posts:** 4966

All entries to be by midnight tonight, points system is 1 point per death with an extra bonus point for a Sunday which is to be used in a tie break. For example if two people have got 2 points but one person has one Sunday death, that wins.

As for prizes, we use a little trophy in the shape of a coffin.

OK, I think these are still all alive...

Politics Ariel Sharon
Pop Ronnie Spector
Actor (UK) Liz Smith
Media Celeb (not actor) Nancy Reagan
Sport Muhammed Ali
Hollywood Zsa Zsa Gabor
Royalty Duke of Kent

I think the first to go will be Ariel Sharon.
