Re: The 2012 Celebrity Croakers Thread.
I suppose the point of picking new names is so that the player who's just made points still has the potential to make more with 5 nominations same as all other players. Thus success isn't punished, but rewarded. In football would you have a player who scores a goal sent off for the remainder of the game so his team can play shorthanded?

Re: The 2012 Celebrity Croakers Thread.
I was thinking of doing an entry at the start, glad I didn't now though.
Just don't agree with this pick another one thing, may as well have picked 100 names from the start, thought the whole idea was pick 6 (or whatever) and the one who gets the most from the original 6 wins.
Whats the point of picking new names.
Make a crap competition even more crap.

well then you're fine just carrying on as you are. It's not as if you do anything at work anyway.

Re: The 2012 Celebrity Croakers Thread.
For 2013 do we keep our existing picks .... Maybe there should some additional ruling along the lines of 1 person per decade so you can't pick 4 x 90 yr olds to increase your chances ... Or am I thinking into this too much?!

Re: The 2012 Celebrity Croakers Thread.
I refer you to the OP, 2013 will be a new thread and you can either retain or replace candidates for your new list. Re: rule 2 - 90 yr olds may be on deck but don't make a lot of points when subtracted from 100. They can also keep going a long, long time, (dear old Zsa Zsa for instance). I picked her without even knowing of the existance of those ghoul deathwatch sites on the internet (now I know where many of you got your picks). I took Justin Bieber as my spoiler just because he likes top end sports cars and he'll be worth megapoints should he experience a catastrophic mechanical failure.
