ROUND TEN: the last round should have been nine, but I’m innumerate

Sherlock clinches it with Dan Schorr — though it was a week before anybody noticed. In the Dead Pool, I mean. I hope somebody in real life threw a sheet over him or something.

1. Pick a celebrity. Any celebrity — though I reserve the right to nix picks I never heard of.

2. We start from scratch every time. No matter who you had last time, or who you may have called between rounds, you have to turn up on this thread and stake your claim.

3. Poaching and other dirty tricks are positively encouraged.

4. Your first choice sticks. Don’t just blurt it out this time, m’kay?

5. It’s up to you to search the thread and make sure your choice is unique. Popular picks go fast.

6. The pool stays open until somebody on the list dies. Feel free to jump in any time. Noobs, strangers, drive-bys and one-comment-wonders — all are welcome.

7. If you want your fabulous prize, you have to entrust me with a mailing address. If you don’t want the fabulous prize, you’re smarter than you look. It takes me forever to put them in the mail, packages go by slow boat, typically take minimum eight to ten weeks and arrive looking beat all to shit.

8. The new DeadPool will begin 6pm WBT (Weasel’s Blog Time) the Friday after the last round is concluded.

The fabulous prize? Sweasel dot com’s unofficial sponsor, Aunty’s Spotted Dick! Mmmmm…it’s dickalicious!
