    I'm not rooting for anyone to die. It's science and living with the results.

    It's the spirit of competition in all things. Yeah, morbid and all, but that is the world that we live in now. At least the pandemic made this type of thing interesting, kind of like the rules changes in the NFL that made teams start throwing 500 yards and 4TDs every game.

    I know I can fart longer than you, too.

    You don’t root for death, death always wins. We’re trying to predict who goes first.

    19 extra bonus points for a death caused by Covid-19. That's my only suggestion for the board of directors here to consider

    Too much ambiguity there I would say. Was someones heart disease the real cause, etc.?

    It looks like it's time to get this started
    I pulled the draft order so everyone just sound off that you are ready to get this started. Thinking we shoot for a Saturday morning start.
    Here is the draft order, you have 10 hours after the previous pick. If a pick is made after midnight EST then your clock will not start until 6am.

    You going with the Greta Thunberg pick with Hunter Biden as pick 2? Biden kills Thunberg before turning the gun on himself.

    81 points for Greta
    20 points for the murder
    48 points for Hunter
    10 points for the suicide

    BAM, 159 point start

    Those extra rules are a nice distraction from the meat of the contest. Somebody will waste a pick on Ghislaine, too.

    Yeah. I can't remember one suicide or murder bonus points in the years we have done these here but I do have one in mind that is a possibility may end that way, not the healthiest person either so covers 2 angles. Those are mid round type picks though

    OK, so only @abyzmul chimed in since I said we should start but I think we should be good to go. I'll put this at an 8 am start time this morning.
    A reminder, if a pick is made at 10 pm the clock for the next pick would run until midnight and then resume at 6am so in that example the person on the clock would have until 2 pm that following day. Pick clock just stops for the 6 hours between midnight and 6am. If a pick is posted during that overnight time frame the next picks clock will start at 6 am. All times are EST.
    Once we have all the picks we will start a separate thread for Death Pool 2023 discussion

    2. @Section 336
    3. @BrowningNagle
    4. @OHTHEPAIN
    5. @JackBower
    6. @FJF
    7. @The Waterboy
    @abyzmul is on the clock starting at 8am but feel free to make your pick before that if you like

    The rest of you may want to set notifications for this thread so you don't miss your draft spot

    Nice pick, I'm going to need to fire my scouts. Didn't even come up in my research about her cancer coming back stage IV.

    @Section 336 you have been on the clock for over 10 hours

    Being we are just starting the draft we'll give the benefit of the doubt that he was not aware we started. Let's give him until 8 am and then @BrowningNagle will be on the clock
