I've replied to everyone's messages so if you haven't had one, let me know. 111 entries this year which I think is a record in my time running the game. After going through my inbox it certainly feels like one. As I mentioned there are lots of first-time players this year, so I hope you do well enough to stick around for 2023. I'll post the new spreadsheet tomorrow with the first update of the year. Five people picked someone who's already dead. One person picked three of them.

I was coming here to post him. Look at the state of his hair.

If you send something after this it won't count. Happy death everyone

I just remember being so proud of them on the telly in their suits. Grant in his kilt. What a year 2013 ended up being.

Congrats on learning how to crop images.

I think this just means you're old, not that Hogmanay's losing its lustre.

I have outlived my usefulness for the evening. If you've sent me a message and not got a reply, I'll get to you by the end of the weekend. If you're still to send a message in the next two hours, same. I'm not going to name names but remember to have a look at your picks, there might be someone else with the same name and it's a lot easier for me if they just get fired straight into the spreadsheet without checking.

Why do tin openers have bottle openers on them?

I am still going through messages but I'm also about to begin my evening's imbibing, so I don't know how much further I'll get.

I've never had someone PM me a replacement to a death I'd not seen while I was still in the process of going through entries before.

The first year I ran the Dead Pool was the year Prince Phillip flipped his Range Rover a few days into January. Him as the first death of the year in an accident would have been an interesting one.

I've PM'd everyone who picked Betty White to tell them their sub is in or to send me a new name.

lousy bitch

When I discovered Hogmanay steak pie - 6 years ago - I figured it was a con manufactured by the supermarkets.
