Here's a possible way of working age into the equation:
Start at 100, and subtract the decedent's age from it to get your points. If the selected person dies at 85, the player receives 15 points. If the player selects a 40 year old, he or she would receive 60 points.
For selections over the age of 100, we should deduct points in the same manner if they last the year. If they die, they should yield only one point.
Have a daily double, in which the player receives double points for two picks, who die within 4 days of each other. Perhaps, we should have designated days, i.e, holidays or the birthdays of the participating board members, where points would be tripled.
I have other ideas, but it's starting to get a little morbid.

Then everyone will pick Lindsay Lohan for the big score. Now THAT'S morbid.

I'm thinking about listing several members of the Rolling Stones (not Mick Jagger) ... one of them is due. Keith Richards has looked the part for years, but hey, he'll probably outlive us all. TIS

TIS keith richards will start a band with abe vigoda Abe Vigoda, is he still making movies? Last time I saw him was in low budget comedy, he was running around as a mental patient.. I don't remember if it was a movie or TV show? Don't remember but I'm sure it was him, from the credits..

Oral Roberts bought the farm today. A few of us had picked Roberts; there is no substantial change in the standings. Geoff will do anything to not give away a free poster ~ he remains in the lead. YOUR LIST FOR THE 2010 GAME MUST BE SUBMITTED IN 16 DAYS (or earlier)

Mignon gets a kill (on her birthday, no less). Actress Jennifer Jones died at age 90. A birthday death. As I posted earlier, she should get triple credit for that! klyd, if Mig got a triple credit, she'd be in second place ahead of you.
