I probably will have missed a couple, but let me know and I'll update this list if I need to.
In first place with 33 points is Jsc810. Jsc had Don Ho and he died in April at the age of 77. Jsc nailed the cause of death as being a heart attack. So, 100-77=23...plus 10 pt. bonus for c.o.d. and he's in at 33. He does have Ariel Sharon in the coma on standby.
In second place is Mister Bushice. Bushy actually had 3 people on his list die, but one of them was Gerald Ford but he died on Dec. 26th and he was a non counter. Bushy did select Tom Poston and Tom died in April at the age of 85. 100-85=15. Bushy had his c.o.d. as heart failure but Tom bit the big one with respiratory failure. Bushy also had a nice pick in Kurt Vonnegut and he kicked in February at the age of 84. 100-84=16 Bushy had his c.o.d. as heart failure but his death was caused by a fall. Bushy totals of 15+16=31 points. Nice work.
In third place is Red Herring. Red grabbed Charles Nelson Reilly who died at 76 years old. 100-76=24. Red, being funny, had his death being due to Anally Inflicted Death Sentence.
And in fourth place is jiminphilly. Jim grabbed the wino Ernest Gallo who died of old age at 97. 100-97=3 points. I couldn't see anything that said he had a blood clot so there is no bonus here.
Honorable mention was L45b who picked James Brown, but "I feel good" didn't feel good enough to make it to 2007 and died with no points on Christmas day.
