okay.... I have been asked about this for some reason a bit in the last week or so... and with famous people dropping like flies... I think if we are going to do this... now is the time....
so introducing to you... the 2013 fab swingers "death pool" contest
I will take entries up until New Years Eve at 1800..... so 12 days from now.....
Basic rules:
1) Everyone picks 10 know famous people and at least one must be under the age of 40
2) Famous people include: Noble Prize winner, a writer, actor, musician, director, athlete, criminal, politician, etc.
3) Can not use people on "Death Row" or that are scheduled for execution
4) Also a "celeb" that is missing or presumed dead is not dead. They will be _iewed as dead if they are in some sort of catastrophic event like a plane crash, fire, tsunami and their body is missing. If however they turn up alive then the points are lost.
5) Brain dead vegetable state is not dead
so... Points:
points to be awarded on the basis of 100 - "age"..... for example:
Christiano Ronaldo would be 100 - 27 = 73 points.....
In your picks please indicate why a "celeb" is famous, ie such and such-actor or such and such-porno director, etc. Also be sure to clearly indicate at least one pick that is under the age of 40.
Prize: out of my own pocket... i'll pay for a gold/silver subscription for the Winner
This is a winner take all contest and in the off chance that a tie occurs I will do a coin flip for the winner.
As points are scored I will update the point total for each entry with the winner determined on Jan 1, 2013.
in the interest of fairness... don't post entries here..... send them to my inbox, I will then publish them all next on new years day
just so I don't get accused of cheating I will send my entry to a mod....
good luck.... and get ya thinking caps on!!!! |

I reckon the shock death of 2013 will be Cliff Richard. The fucker can't keep looking that young forever and I think he'll go in for his next bout of plastocosmo and he'll drop dead under the knife.
How many points for that then eh? |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
This is better than I thought reading the title. I was expecting to find a list of Fab people for various forum inmates to kill in some sort of ghoulish fashion.
I'll have to think of my list. |

"I'm in! I am however going to feel really bad if anyone on my list pops their clogs! "
I want to play to but I am worried if I guessed someone under 40 and they died, I would feel awful
shocking but I would feel less if someone in their 90's slipped away in their sleep |
