HOW IT WORKS A short explanation is... Each player has a roster of eight of celebrities. Money is collected to build a "Pot" ($10 to start then $6 every two weeks). The player that has a celebrity die first wins whatever is in the pot. The pot is then rebuilt, and the game continues.                 NEW BUSINESS *3/2/09 UPDATE* - Legendary Radio Broadcaster Paul Harvey died on Saturday February 28, 2009. With his death Ed Reilly (Me!) wins $350! - Ed has chosen former Heavyweight Champion and cannibal Mike Tyson to add to his roster. - $10 will now be due on Friday 3/13. Remember, if someone should die before midnight on Saturday 3/14 you will win nothing! *1/31/09* - Danny Rios has added former Guns n' Roses drummer and smack addict Steven Adler to his roster. Danny got to add a new celebrity due to the death of Paul Newman. *1/18/09 UPDATE* - Khan Noonien Singh, the genetically engineered superhuman tyrant who once controled more than one quarter of the Earth during the Eugenics Wars of the 1990's (he was also known as Mr. Roarke and Ricardo Montalban) has died. Khan spent the last years of his life in exile on the uncolonized world Ceti Alpha V. - That means Mike Shea has won $70! Mike gets to add a new celebrity to his roster that is under 50 years old. Considering Mike never got around to adding anybody the last time he won (almost 2 years ago) I doubt he will be adding anyone soon. *12/27/08 UPDATE* - The money in the pot has been donated to Athena and her family. This upcoming Friday 1/2/09 only $6 will be due. Until midnight EST on Saturday 1/3/09 the pot will be at $0. *12/23/08 UPDATE* - Tim McFeeters has added Howard Stern Wack Packer Lester "Beetlejuice" Green to his roster. Tim gets to add someone new due to the death of Pro Football Hall of Famer Sammy Baugh. *12/20/08 UPDATE* - W. Mark "Deep Throat" Felt died on Thursday 12/18/08. Since the pot was at $0 Ed Reilly wins nothing. Ed has chosen to add Actor Harry Morgan of Dragnet and M*A*S*H fame to his roster. Since Ed did not win any money with Felt's death the "Under 50 Years Old Rule" does not apply. *12/17/08 UPDATE* - Tim McFeeters has won $290 with the death of Pro Football Hall of Famer Sammy Baugh. Tim now gets to add a celebrity that is under 50 years old to his roster. - With this latest death $10 will now be due this Friday 12/19/08. Remember, if you should have someone die between now and midnight EST on Saturday 12/20/08 you will win nothing! Check out news updates from the past here The MacGuffin Dead Pool is over three years old now. Here are some interesting facts about the game so far... 1) 15 different people have won money totaling $9,070. 2) There are 7 original players remaining, and they have all won at least twice. 3) Amy Krohn & Mike Shea are tied for having won the most times (4). 4) Danny Rios has won the most money ($1,380). 5) The largest pot won was when Danny Rios won $630 with Paul Newman on September 26, 2008. 6) The longest streak without winning a pot is held by Ed Reilly (2 years 276 days). Thanks for Dead Pooling, Ed
