FabSwingers.com forum: the 2013 fab swingers "death pool" contest

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?
