Celebrity Death Watch
Our most tasteless idea yet, a death
pool with prizes. You should never wish
for someone to die, but . . . if you are gonna, you might as well have a little
fun while doing it.
This
page is a mess, it will be fixed soon, in the meantime, read the rules and get
your team in now!
We are now aware that there are other
Celebrity Death Pools online all over, however at the time of our idea we
honestly had no idea. Upon checking out
a few of them we discovered that while our idea is similar it is not the
same. Here is how ours works.
Anyone can enter the contest and the
winner takes home a Morning Show in my Mind T Shirt.
Here’s what we need from you, your
name and email address (email address will not be posted) and your team of
celebrities.
The Rules:
- Your team will consist of 10
celebrities, celebrities can come from any fields. Including: Actors/Actresses, Politicians, Athletes,
Musicians, Authors, Comedians, People famous for being famous (ex. Paris
Hilton), anyone else deemed famous by the MSIMM Staff; we have final say no
arguing you will lose.
- None of your celebrities can be on
someone else’s team
- Your team must contain at least 3
Males and at least 3 Females, we will be the judge on who is what sex
- You must have 1 celebrity under the
age of 35, again we will be the official word
-
You
may not have more than 3 celebrities over the age of 75, we still have the official
word
-
- If
your celebrity has a birthday during the contest causing them to be in
violation of one of the rules you must pick replacement celebrities
-
You
are only allowed to have 1 celebrity with a pre-disposed mental or physical
condition causing them to be more likely than the average human being to die.
- If a celebrity on your team is diagnosed with the above-mentioned condition you are not responsible for picking a new member, congratulations, what a lucky break (maybe literally)
- Once a celebrity on someone’s team dies we will start the contest over again
The Morning Show in my Mind Staff will
be playing along in this contest, our teams were picked during an online draft,
the draft text is below as is a summary of our teams. Pick
your team by sending us an email with a list of your celebrities. Your team will be officially approved once
you get a reply from us and it will then be posted right here. Good Luck.

Upon review we
received this email from Brain:
Alright, this was noticed by me so
therefore I am going to send out the message where I am correcting my list
before I get into any issues. According
to the rules of the Celebrity Death Watch game, our teams must be composed of
at least 3 members of each sex. As you
can see from looking at my list that my sexist nature had me pick only 2 that
classify as "female". I am
therefore going to submit the following change to my roster:
I will be dropping William Shatner and he will be replaced by Mary-Kate Olsen, as I found out she is the anorexic one.
I am sure this will need to be approved by the staff, therefore everyone is getting this message. If any issues arise with this modification, then I will correct them accordingly.
- Brian
