The Master Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 17 hours ago, Njord said: William Christopher aka the priest in M*A*S*H http://abc7.com/entertainment/william-christopher-father-mulcahy-on-mash-dies-at-84/1680901/ Exactly a year after Wayne Rogers who played Trapper. Had I known this yesterday I'd have changed my dead pool for this year to include all remaining surviving M*A*S*H actors. Good chance of deadly December and last gasp bonuses.

Spain Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 By the way, I'm surprised no one subbed in the likes of Carrie Fisher earlier in the month... haven't had a sub in ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spain Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 Will update with the remaining last minute deaths tomorrow but Mr Bairn is certainly champ for 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spain Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 GAME OVER KLAXON A year where the Grim Reaper got out of bed on the wrong side and scythed down every celeb he could find, saw the P&B Dead Pool collective correctly predict 48 different deaths in 2016. Nine of those were by our eventual winner, and your Dead Pool Champion of 2016, with a phenomenal 632 points Mr Bairn. Congrats, Mr Bairn.. although your membership on this site was also struck down by the reaper, we salute you regardless. So here it is, the final standings: 1 Mr Bairn 632 2 Njord 582 3 Bluetoon87 440 4 AberdeenBud 433 5 cal234ey 425 6 Ned_Nederlander 400 7 Albino Rover 389 8 DBA 359 9 Fuctifano 346 10 The Naitch 300 11 JamieStevenson 282 12 Billy Jean King 278 13 David McG 277 14 weirdcal 266 15 jupe1407 252 = Wilkinson1998 252 17 Desp 244 = Sloop John B 244 19 Miguel Sanchez 217 20 pawpar 204 21 LoonsYouthTeam 202 22 Spain 188 23 wisbit 186 24 ChoirBairn 185 25 50/50 Winner 180 26 Michael W 178 27 mozam76 175 28 nessies long lost ghost 167 29 Jersey Bud 165 = sureiknow 165 31 gkneil 164 = Once A Rover always a Rover 164 33 cdisaccie 161 = Savage Henry 161 35 Aryj 158 = Jarkko Wiss 158 37 Sergeant Wilson 151 38 smpar 150 = Sweaty Morph 150 40 Arabdownunder 143 41 Ben Twilly 141 42 JustOneCornetto 140 43 D.V.T. 139 44 lichtgilphead 138 45 Bobby Skidmarks 137 = Mr Rational 137 47 expatowner 135 = JasonElgin 135 49 Deeboy 129 50 Oddy 122 51 Bert Racoon 120 52 Cille Mhernaig 108 = craigiemack 108 54 tree house tam 103 55 Lex 99 = lolls 99 57 alta-pete 98 58 Cyclizine 92 59 BalticSaint 87 60 qos_75 86 = Ross. 86 = The Master 86 63 Gingette 83 = GordieBoy80 83 65 doulikefish 76 66 speckled tangerine 71 67 Sherrif John Bunnnell 68 68 53_and_counting 52 = Grim O'Grady 52 = pub car king 52 71 AsimButtHitsASix 51 = Gareth_Glasgow 51 = honestrae95 51 = invergowrie arab 51 = Marr1 51 = supermik 51 = Ziggy 51 78 dave_binos 42 = thisal 42 80 bonaccord 35 = DrewDon 35 = paulathame 35 = tinkerbelle 35 84 BigBadBassRock 30 = Bold Rover 30 And finally, The Pie and Bovril Dead Pool 2016 Zero Pointers: Aberfeldy Chris_DK DA Baracus dee_62 ebbes20silkcut Eednud Enigma johnnydun microdave Mo Wonderboy Raidernation Staff Sergeant Dignam the snudge weejack Thanks for playing everyone!

Blootoon87 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Phenomenal strike rate from the dearly departed Mr Bairn, GBNF etc etc. I'm delighted with 3rd place though, it might even be the crowning achievement in my life thus far. Cheers for running Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweaty Morph Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Joint 38th, I'll take that. Not bad for a first attempt anyway. Fingers crossed my 'experienced' squad does the business this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Chuffed with the top 10 finish given the sheer amount of hits there's been across the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Was rather pleased with my mid table mediocrity for a first attempt with a last minute team thrown together just to get entered; this years team has had far more thought. So will probably have jinxed it already! And also many thanks to@Spain for running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Nederlander Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Finished 6th two years on the trot, I'm fairly happy with that - 69 points better off this year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
