Picks to follow after a few days of research

Dartgod 01-06-2012 01:54 PM

Do we have to publicly post our list, or will a PM suffice?

Gonzo 01-06-2012 01:55 PM

RULES, SCORING, & PRIZES
 
RULES:
As of 1-6-2012
1. This is only a game. A morbid one, mind you, but it’s only a game. Do not take this game seriously; we do not condone acts of violence. Contestants who murder celebrities on their list will be expelled from the game immediately.

2. The game will be FREE of charge. There will, however, be a prize for 1st and 2nd place.*

3. The object of the game: To predict the deaths of celebrities, thus gaining points. The player with the most points as of 12-31-2012 at 23:59:59 hrs is the winner.*

4. Each contestant must pick ten celebrities who they think are due a visit from the Grim Reaper. These picks are FINAL. Once you write them in, you cannot change them at any time.*

5. If someone on your list expires, you can choose a replacement celebrity. We will call these picks, “Supplemental Picks” and they must be selected within 48 hours of your original picks documented demise on Chiefs Planet.*

6. Celebrities with known terminal illnesses ARE allowed in this game. So it pays to get your research right.

7. Lists will not contain any celebrity under the age of 16, (sickos).*

8. A celebrity is defined as a person who lives their life in the public domain, such as a sportsman, entertainer, musician, author, famous scientist etc. If we haven’t heard of them, then you might not get the points when they croak.

9. The “Officials” are: Gonzo, Lumpy, Sofa King, Pestilence, Digger and Luv. All questions regarding rules and regulations must be directed to them. Gonzo has the final word on all points awarded. The other officials are assisting in this process because Gonzo’s “Pop Culture” IQ is exceedingly lame.*

10. At the end of the year, the winner will be awarded a prize. If the winner is a Chiefs fan, the award will likely be a piece of Chiefs memorabilia. If the winner is not a Chiefs fan, a similar award of monetary value will be awarded. (I.E. if they are a Raiders fan, the award will be something reasonable). No money will exchange hands during this process.*

11. New players may join this game no later than March 1st, 2012. They will be placed in the league table at zero points. Upon entry, you may select a celebrity that is currently on their death bed. However, once the said celeb passes, you will only receive a maximum of 3 points. (Even if you pull an Exacto as explained below). (This Rule goes into effect on 1-13-11 heh, Friday the 13th).

12. In order to claim your points, this thread needs to be bumped. I will try to keep up with everyone’s selections but seriously, bump this thread and/or let me or the other 2 officials know.*

SCORING:

1. For every celebrity death that a player has forecasted, they will receive 10 points.*
2. Pulling a Heath Ledger: If the celebrity that “bit it” is under 50 years old, an additional 10 points will be awarded.
3. The Sonny Bono: If the celebrity died in a particularly peculiar way, (See Sonny Bono or Sharon Tate) an additional 5 points will be awarded. Gonzo is the final Judge on said clauses.*
4. The Nostradamus: This is a good one here, gang… If your chosen celebrity dies in the month you predicted, you get an extra 10 points. If he/she dies on the exact date, you get an extra 15.*
5. The bleeding vagina: If you get it within a week of your prediction date, you will be awarded 5 bonus points.*

So, let’s recap…

Let’s say you think Justin Timberlake is going to die on September 10th because he electrocuted himself with an EZ Bake Oven, you will be awarded 55 points. This is called, “The Exacto” and is exceedingly rare.
You predicted who – 10 points
He’s under 50 – 10 points
He died in a weird way – 5 points
In the month you predicted – 10 points
Within a week of your prediction - 5 points
On the Day you predicted – 15 points.
Total – 55 points.

PRIZES:
Prizes for 1st and 2nd places are:*
FYI: Prizes for 1st and 2nd place: (winner gets 1st dibs)
Chiefs parka worth around 100 - 120 bucks.
A standing card display with four football cards inside: Trent Green, Tony G. Priest and Dante Hall - (Thanks to beer me!)
Another prize update peeps:
I have a nice Derrick Thomas bobble-head still in the package.*
The winner will receive 15 million in casino cash, 2nd place gets 5 mill.
So, let's recap here:
1st place:
1 KC Chiefs Parka - XL. One Derrick Thomas Bobble-Head and 15 million in CC.*
Runner Up:
The card display with a Trent Green, Tony G Priest Holmes and Dante Hall Card interred, plus 5 mill in C-Cash.*
More prizes coming soon!

Well, you can PM them and I can wait a few days to post it if you'd like. You better just hope that they don't die before I get them up there.

LMAO

Sadly you probably HAD to put that..... although I doubt it'll stand up in court.

Baby Lee 01-06-2012 02:15 PM

If I understand correctly, the death bed, 3pt, clause applies to all [not just 03/01/12 entrants], but NOT to terminal celebs? ie, if in the past someone had selected Swayze, or Easy-E.

Perhaps this should be clarified, as I already have a list of people I'm fairly certain won't see 2013, who are not on their death bed unless things have escalated in VERY recent news cycles.

Also, non-deathbed picks are scored like normal regardless of how late one enters [so long as they don't witness the death, then jump on CP before it hits the news].

Dr. Johnny Fever 01-06-2012 02:19 PM

So my assumption is the same celebrity can be on several peoples list and that's allowed....

Graystoke 01-06-2012 02:21 PM

Good point...

Let's say from now until 1-13-12 anyone is fair game. I don't think anyone is really on the ol' deathbed really.

I will rewrite the rules to reflect that, now.

You're Swaze thing doesn't really apply. I'm thinking more along the lines of when we knew within a week that Reagan was dying and Gerald Ford for that matter...
You know, it's all over the news. Someone is about to croak, they do retrospect pieces, etc...

Yes.
You'll win by predicting the Ryan Dunn's of the year, though.

Baby Lee 01-06-2012 02:23 PM

I'd also suggest a choice between an escalator for right month OR a slightly smaller, then growing, escalator for within 30, 20 10 days. It would sure suck to pick someone June 1, and they die May 30 with no escalation.

We knew [if paying attention] as Swayze's days waned [he died at home off aggressive Tx], same as Steve Jobs. But we also knew for a good while both had a severely limited lifespan.

I did 1 escalator... I think this should be good enough.

If they get it within a week, another 5 points.

That should get it.

I tell you what,
If you want to keep them private, I will honor that. Kaberos already got me his list as well.

I will keep all lists private until the March 1st deadline if you all so desire.

You may send me your lists PM, make sure you ask for me to keep them private.

Yeah but with the low point totals we're playing with, 15 will probably put you in front.

I can always adjust the totals if everyone wants me to. It's our game and we're refining as we go.

I don't see yours listed.

Rasputin 01-07-2012 02:03 PM

Charlie Sheen~ july 4. not winning anymore.

Bobby Moynihan~ March 12, I like the odds of a SNL cast member being a gonner.


John Daly~ too much boose & goes out for a round of golf in a thunderstorm gets struck by lightning...

(on a side note~if John Goodman were still alive he would have won an oscar award for best actor if he got to play as John Daly in a movie roll playing as John Daly) sad.

O.J. Simpson~ April 8


John Madden~ The bust at the HOF just have enough of Johns big mouth & an "accident" occurs tipping over his statue & at that time John Madden dies 1:13am May 1.

Scott Hall~ He is my favorite wrastler, but I just don't see him making it through the year... june 15.

Ross Perot~ he is old had his time playing politics & buying votes time to die old man aug. 17

Rick Flair~ My least favorite wrastler falls over dead in the ring (pay per view event)~ Whoooo

Brad Garrett~Bumbling doof trips & cracks his head. sept 26

Alec Baldwin~ Takes Q from Charlie Sheen and not winning any more. july 5.

I like a lot of these picks. Baby Lee's was excellent as well. Everyone's picking Sheen but I don't think he'll die for a few years. His dad on the other hand...

My list is going to be awesome as well. I have done a shit-ton of research.
Good luck guys. Get your lists in to me by the end of next week, please! You don't want someone to kick the bucket while you're choosing.
