Guest Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 You list people you think are going to die. You get points based on them dying and their age (younger people are worth more). Hilarity ensues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I was interested in playing a few years back and listing Rock, but was told it'd be too uncouth, so I'm boycotting forevar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeygirl Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 TRUTH. I will do the 125 point system but give me a day or so to get the rest of the stuff in order. You start with 125. When a person on your list dies, you subtract their current age from 125 and that's the number of points you get for choosing them. So, the younger the person, the higher the points.

Cerina Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 We should have small bonuses if you can predict the cause of death as well. Or at least relevant factors. Like, technically Whitney Houston drowned, but her death was drug related. So if you'd had guessed "Whitney Houston - drugs" then you could get like 10 bonus points.
