If he lived in L.A. I can guess why he died suddenly.

Trilby · 08-23-2010, 07:10 AM

He lived in New Jersey...

Bummer

We're not doing very well, are we? Anyone have Tony Curtis?

monster · 09-30-2010, 09:08 AM

oh dear, spudcon had gloria stuart. but as she was 100 when she died, we need to find a different scoring system from the traditional to get him some points for that

Spud's doing pretty well..... although if George or Dolores die, does he lose points? -they are both 101! He's only got 9 points to lose as he picked all the oldies.

Yes. He chose ............ poorly.

Trilby · 09-30-2010, 10:42 AM

He can get the "other prize" for most correct deaths or whatever.

Yeh - what a shame - Another young comedian/actor dying from drugs/drinking.

Sad to hear about Tony Curtis, even if I had him on the radar.

Scriveyn, i'm sure you did something wonderful there, but I'm not sure what ....can you share it as an image somehow?

Scriveyn · 10-03-2010, 01:54 PM

It's just a spreadsheet with all the data required to calculate the scores.
Edit the red column from 0 to 1 when the respective celeb has departed - and hey presto, the scores are re-calculated automatically ;o)
