Game Starts at 12:01AM EST on January 1, 2017 and Ends on December 31, 2017 at 11:59PM EST

You can select 8 people that you believe will die in 2017.

Post them between NOW and December 31, 2016 at 11:59PM EST and list them in the order in which they will achieve deceased status, must be "celebrity" or "famous" individuals (ie have a wiki page).

Tie Breakers in case of duplicate selections: If a contestant has celebrity "A" listed 1st and another contestant has same celebrity listed 4th, the contestant with the higher selection would get tie breaker status. additionally second tie breaker will be decided using the following: first posted gets credit, if still deadlocked we will award co-champions or something...

Age at time of death will be granted points as follows

0-20 = 6 points
21-40 = 5 points
41-60 = 4 points
61-80 = 3 points
81-99 = 2 points
100+ = 1 point


All deaths before July 1, 2017 are normal points, all deaths starting July1st and after are worth double points

A coroners report listing the cause of death as murder is triple points regardless of date of death.

Asterisks will be added to all selections that warrant them

Anyone who has a perfect death selection of all their picks is automatically the champion regardless of points

also considering keith. i have had a nagging feeling that a rolling stone is going to die for over a month now and as soon as i started to get that feeling the stones were on the radio all the time like some kind of sign.

I think your picks are all dead already. Might want to check that.

Cept Kirk. he will never die. and when he does it will take points away from you.

my new strategy is to chip away at 1 pointers and hope for mass carnage multiplication.

i never get the 3 pointers anyway. my luck is poop that way. if i pick a teen star who is still in the hospital recovering from his second failed suicide attempt, within a week he'll be an out-of-rehab picture of health and a born again christian just spreading the Word.

I didn't list you.
