  • 2014 dead pool draft pick thread

    Draft order:

    Revo
    SeaDogStat
    Don Quixote
    DMT
    Fresno Bob
    Stephen
    Erik
    Griswold
    Hacko

    Rules:

    Points = 100-age.

    +15 for "1st Death", +15 for "Last Death"

    No drafting anyone currently hospitalized with a terminal illness. Terminal illness but not in the hospital is OK. In the hospital but not with a terminal illness is OK.

    If your person dies during the draft, no points, repick.

    Picks must be "notable" other than for death pool positioning. At the very least they should have an English-language Wikipedia page for a reason other than being famous for illness (e.g. Terri Schiavo).

    If someone wishes to protest a pick, please state the nature of your objection. If the picker does not agree with the objection, the pick will be put to a vote of drafters.

    This draft must move quickly lest too many picks die before it's over. Therefore there will be a two-hour clock on weekdays and a four-hour clock on weekends. The clock will run from 9 AM to 9 PM Eastern time. If you are going to be unavailable, please PM your choices to someone else, or tell us that we can skip you.

    Draft will be 12 rounds. However, points will be awarded for all picks in the first 10 rounds starting at the end of the 10th round.

    This thread is for picks only. Please comment in the signup/discussion thread.

            If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

            Bullshit is everywhere. - George Carlin (& Jon Stewart)
