I thought we could try this.
You pick 10 famous names who you think will die in 2005 and list them in this thread.
Then for every one that dies, you're awarded points.
Points system is as follows:
10 points - Person on your list dies on or between 1/1/05 and 4/1/05
20 points - Person on your list dies on or between 4/1/05 and 7/1/05
30 points - Person on your list dies on or between 7/1/05 and 10/1/05
40 points - Person on your list dies on or between 10/1/05 and 12/31/05
50 points - BONUS for "Best Bet"
The "Best Bet" is the one famous name on your list you designate as a "Best Bet" to die. If they die, you get the points for both the date of death and also the 50 BONUS points. You can designate only one "Best Bet".
Deadline for submissions in this thread is next Monday (December 27th).
Good luck!
