And So It Begins Again

in News & Updates by

It’s on, folks! A new year, 36 new lists, and 182 new celebs to cheer on to the grave. Some may be old or already circling the drain… some are simply bad decision makers… while others are just objects of our unbridled hatred. Whoever they are, may they meet the ultimate finish line before 2019. Godspeed you poor devils!

A big thank you! to returning participants and hearty welcome aboard! to all you new ghouls. A handsome prize package valued at roughly $350 awaits whoever can rack up the most points with at least 3 hits in this calendar year. All lists & selection info is now active on the site. Don’t forget to check out 2018’s Lucky 13 to see how in or out of tune you are with your fellow selectors.

One thing I’ll say is that it’s refreshing to see that folks are really upping their game this year. The research is showing… bravo, y’all. And with 123 of 182 selections being loner picks, that new Cadaver Dog Bonus could change the game a bit. Best of luck to everyone!

So as this year’s carnival of tears kicks off, I would be remiss if I didn’t at least mention 2017’s results. To throw the moose onto the table: OK… I won. Although I oversee this sh!t show, I’m a participant as well… and after several years of trying, I finally landed the blue marlin with 5 hits and 153 points. The winnings will be re-invested into the site…. and maybe a nice bottle of bourbon. So… no speech… or self-serving ego-stroke in the third-person here… I’ll just say thank you.

However, the competition was fierce and the top-tenners definitely deserve acknowledgement. In order, they are:

  • Kim Reaper 1 – 137 points, 4 hits
  • J. Darr – 137 points, 4 hits
  • B. Hollander – 121 points, 3 hits
  • Doug Graves – 94 points, 3 hits
  • Kim Reaper 2 – 93 points, 3 hits
  • C. Capps – 89 points, 3 hits
  • M. Poweleit 1 – 85 points, 3 hits
  • M. Gettys – 67 points, 2 hits
  • J. Stautberg – 63 points, 2 hits

Top notch players… every one of them.
Well done.

And now… back to our regularly scheduled programming.
