Drop Bleed- he already said he's in Haiti. He can get in after my 3rd round pick kicks the bucket this weekend.
Nowhere, other than Kirk Douglas. Hark, bless his heart, was waiting on Bleed who is en route to a 4th world country.
Agreed, next man up. Bleed can pick if he ends up getting Internet, or he can bail, up to him, but gteeitup can pick now as well
Drum Roll please.... and the order is:
1 tarheel0910
2 Bleed
3 gteeitup
4 plm
5 GSD
6 Hark
7 UNC71-00
8 jcolucci
9 THN11
10 CoryFly
11 Raising Heel
12 UNC '92
13 coolwaterunc
14 Heelmanwilm
If anyone is out (Bleed may be?) and could let us know now, that'd be great so we're not waiting around for their pick. We agreed on $10 per poster. I don't know if we can have a strict time limit on picks, because I'm assuming it's going to end up going into tomorrow, so just try to get your picks in at a reasonable rate. I guess if there is consensus someone is taking much longer than they should we can begin to skip them (and they can jump back in and make a pick as soon as they can after that). We'll do 5 picks each, snake style (so it goes in reverse order for the 2nd and 4th rounds), with the last round (4th) being a double pick round.
As mentioned ad nauseum earlier in the thread, eligible picks need to be celebrities, and have a reasonable chance at being alive in a couple months. That's pretty much it.
@tarheel0910 - you're on the clock.
Next page bump
I'm shutting her down early tonight- tomorrow is going to be a big big day. However, I am considerate of my fellow OOTBers and PMd Hark my pick

Up to this point, I hadn't really understood the "going to hell" comments.
Now that people are posting actual names, this is pretty damned disturbing. We are all horrible, horrible people. We're going straight to hell.

Well, a few are going to hell. The rest of us should be fine thanks to GSD who wont make a damn pick.
I see plm has done his research. That was clearly my top pick as well. Threw me for a loop. plm is the odds on favorite right now for any of you lurkers that might want to make a side bet.
Sorry for the delay. My pick:
Cmon @Hark_The_Sound_2010 and pick already. Then I can make mine and go to sleep
yeah, but you'll know people, so.
As much as I wanted to do this, I couldn't get past the actual picking of names and hoping for them to die. So, I'll just lurk and laugh.
Oh, I'm not going to hope for anyone to die. But if my picks go first and I take the pot, let's just say I won't be as sad about it.
How much of Cher has to die before she can officially be counted?
Technically I'm not really sad when people die unless I know them. I don't want them to die or anything. I wouldn't ever wish for or celebrate anyone dying. I think it is sad for those that knew them or whatever but I never understood being sad when celebrities pass away.
If you weren't sad when Dean Smith passed, then we can't be friends anymore.
Actually, as I was typing what I wrote I knew I was kind of being dishonest on that front but I literally think he is the only exception for me. So I didn't think it made sense to mention it. Still, the passing wasn't as sad as what he went through IMO. Death isn't really sad when I don't know the person. We all die. Knowing people are going through something difficult is more upsetting to me.
Well put. Of course I was just busting your chops, and Dean is probably my only exception, so I pretty much agree with you word for word here.
I'll see you in Hell.

I wanted to pick him, but this idea is already horrible enough. I didn't want the blood of a man of god on my hands.
Yeah this is rough.
I have an idea for @Hark_The_Sound_2010. You could start a new thread just for the draft, and change the title of the thread based on whoever is currently on the clock. I know that doesn't help when people aren't logging in at all, but it might help when someone isn't reading through this thread or misses a notification flag that they've been tagged.

agreed. we need to hurry my second round pick is on a hunger strike in Iran
That's a good idea, and we can take 71's suggestion of a 1pm limit for him. I'll make the Death Pool Draft thread now, and input everyone that has been picked there, and hopefully it moves along faster - at this rate I'm considering drafting myself.
