Celebrity Death List MMXIII / The Death Thread 2013  Empty Celebrity Death List MMXIII / The Death Thread 2013

Post by skully Tue 18 Dec 2012, 09:32

OK, as 2012 is roaring to a close and presuming we make it past 21.12.12, it's time to start thinking about those celebs that you think will shuffle off this mortal coil in 2013.

The Rules:

Choose six celebrities:

- At least one must be under the age of 30 at the end of 2013 (no 30th birthday in 2013).
- At least one must be from the world of sport.
- At least one must be from the world of politics.
- No doubled up noms - if someone grabs one of your preferred noms first, bad luck. So I suggest you have some back-ups noms.
- You cannot choose anyone from your 2009, 2010, 2011 or 2012 lists - the full list of all past noms is listed below. I repeat – do NOT pick someone you’ve previously nommed.
- No sooking about anyone's selections - first in, best dressed.
- No bagsing prior to the opening time for nominations.
- Noms accepted from Midnight Dec 31, 2012 Australian Eastern Daylight Time = 1.00 PM Dec 31, 2012 GMT = 3.00 PM Dec 31 SAST = 6.30 PM Dec 31, 2012 IST - not a second before. If you nom early, your list will not count and you run the risk of others pinching your picks.
- Late entries (beyond January) are welcomed within reason e.g. August is pushing it a bit.
- scoring will be as set out below.

Scoring:

The winner will be the nominator with most deaths on their list at the end of 2013. In the event of a tie, the AD scoring method will be used as a tie-breaker, as follows:

The age of the successful nominee at the last birthday before death (no rounding-up) will be taken away from 100. A blanket score of 1 point is awarded for any dying nominee aged 99 or older (as in the case of Oscar Niemeyer who was 104 - so there can be no zero or minus scores). Extra points are also awarded based on the month the nominee dies with 12 going to those in January, 11 to those in February etc. For example:

Zat (2012) - Etta James (25 Jan) (100 - 73 + 12 (for Jan)) + Oscar Niemeyer (5 Dec) ([104] = 1 point + 1 (for Dec)) – Total Pts = 41

Definitely. I would think that'll be most people's source - grab those that have survived others nominating them.

I'm pretty confident that there'll still be many, many available celebs to nominate as of Jan 2, Trev.

Just to make it clear for everyone, Skulls, am I right in saying that total number of clog-poppers will still be used to determine outright winners and points system, so elegantly described above, will only be used to separate those who are tied on same number of celebs?

Well, I'm easy either way, AD, but I was going to go with your outright scoring system, meaning that someone could knock off a single younger person and beat another who has killed a couple of centurions.

I'll go with whatever the preference is:

a) Winner decided by most deaths from their list, and the AD scoring method used as a tie-breaker, or
b) Winner decided by highest score using the AD scoring method, irrespective of the number of deaths achieved.

Feel free to vote (a) or (b) folks, or not.

For purposes of illustration only, if the suggested rule change were in operation currently (which it isn't) and only points counted in determining the winner the current leader board would look like this:

1. Skully - Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi (20 May) (100 - 60 + 8 ) Total Pts = 48
2. JGK - Robin Gibb (20 May) (100 - 62 + 8 ) Total Pts = 46
3. Zat - Etta James (25 Jan) (100 - 73 + 12) + Oscar Niemeyer (5 Dec) ([104-100] + 1) Total Pts = 41
4. Bodyline - Sun Myung Moon (3 Sep) (100 - 92 + 4) Total Pts = 12
4. Eric Emu Air - Sir Patrick Moore (9 Dec) (100 - 89 + 1) Total Pts = 12
6. Big Dog - Ernest Borgnine (8 Jul) (100 - 95 + 6) Total Pts = 11
7. The Rest Bar Those

I can see now why Skully proposed the amended scoring system in the way he did! However, on the face of it, it appears to go against its attention which is to reward the less obvious candidates since al-Megrahi was probably the most anticipated death not only of 2012 but of 2011 and 2010 too and Skully narrowly pips JGK's selection of Robin Gibb who died on the same day purely on the accident of birth although most would have guessed that the age difference would have been reversed.

Zat sinks to 3rd for having two aged picks - one who was terminally ill at the start of the year (although slightly rewarded for being first off the mark) and a centenarian. I doubt he is a fan of the new scheme but I just offer this as a warning to demonstrate that even the best-intentioned scheme can produce eccentric results. I am still uncertain whether it is better to reward those whose picks perish at the beginning of the year or towards the end (as this would allow for a slight "catch up" effect and perhaps keep the contest going for longer) but let's leave the system as it is and see how it operates in practice first before proposing amendments. However I can foresee the possibility of tears before bedtime.

Huzzah, I would win. cheers

I clearly misunderstood your intent, AD. I certainly hadn't checked the scores, and I didn't lean either way or propose anything, I thought this was what you meant. I am more than happy to amend the scoring to (a) below. Just thought with the week and a bit left before the 2013 competition kicks off we could put it to a democratic vote. At this stage it's 3:1 in favour of most deaths picked then your scoring method used to tie-break.

Please choose your preferred scoring for CDL 2013:

a) Winner decided by most deaths from their list, and the AD scoring method used as a tie-breaker, or
b) Winner decided by highest score using the AD scoring method, irrespective of the number of deaths achieved.

Currently we are at:

3 x (a)
1 x (b)

If no further interest or correspondence is forthcoming, I will ask Fromberg to amend the rules in my first post to reflect (a) above.

In response to an earlier request by MrK, here is the running death list covering all previous nominations in alphabetical order (by first name) under each nominator. I have to keep it like this so I can quickly check if anyone has inadvertently nommed someone they previously picked. if you want the whole list with no repeats and in alphabetical order, please copy and paste and knock yourself out.
