Question: is there any glory in selecting more than one person here? It feels sort of like cheating, no?

If I just posted 1.1 billion names from China, I'd win, but there'd be nothing particularly impressive about it.

Agreed, any more than one selection is rather Squid-like.

Carrot top?! That's hilarious. Really funny man. Just curious...have you seen him live? I have seen him, Adam Carolla and Larry the Cable Guy all live and Carrot Top was by far the funniest I've ever seen .

i have not seen him, hes usually a funny guy these days. but still hes carrot top lol. he was good on a CC roast not to long ago i remember.

the rules were changed half way thru the thread. my #1 still stands for praksters rules but my other 4 are for the 2nd game. if any of them die, don't look here for answers.

With the recent passing of Dick Clark, Levon Helm, and now Chuck Colson, most internet Death Pools are being reloaded this week....

So there is no better time to start a Boneyard Death Pool, especially considering that it is the off season and everything...

Since you can't do anything without a few rules....

Here's the rules:

1. Your pick has to be living when picked. Also, nobody whose execution date is circled on the calendar.
2. Pick a celebrity. Any celebrity — though I reserve the right to nix picks I never heard of (I don’t generally follow the Dead Pool threads carefully, so if you’re unsure of your pick, call it to my attention).
3. We start from scratch every time. So if we have another pool, no matter who you had previous time, or who you may have called between rounds, you have to turn up on this very thread and stake your claim.
3. Poaching and other dirty tricks positively encouraged.
4. Your first choice sticks. If you blurt out something stupid, you are stuck with it.
5. It’s up to you to search the thread and make sure your choice is unique. I’m waayyyy too lazy to catch the dupes. Popular picks will go fast.
6. The pool stays open until somebody on the list dies. People can jump in any time. Noobs, strangers, drive-bys and one-comment-wonders — all are welcome.
7. If you want your fabulous prize, you have to entrust me with a mailing address. If you don’t want the fabulous prize, you’re too smart to be a regular. It might me forever to put the prize in the mail. Packages go by slow boat.
8. The Death Pool is now open.

This round's prize?

A genuine, limited edition "BYC IX" baseball cap....(be the envy of your neighborhood!)

Pick whomever you want.... (Mark Emmert is probably a losing pick, but he deserves to die, so wishfull thinking is also positively encouraged....)

 

[temery]

Coward!! That's too easy, although I read this morning that he is only mostly dead...

He's stayin' alive, for now.

I wasn't totally confident he was.

Ok, I've thrown two old guys out there in Mickey Rooney and Ernest Borgnine. As someone mentioned, old guys are too easy. Here's my young one: Macaulay Culkin. Something just isn't right with that guy.

That guy is still with it. I'd give him another 10 years.

You know I hate agreeing with you...

Why would you hate being right?
