600 points per death divided amongst the competitors who
have chosen them. For example if Fred Bloggs dies and 3 competitors
have him on their list then they would be rewarded with 200 points
each. If only 1 competitor had Fred on their list then they would
collect the full 600 points. Jokers score double
600 points is also available to the person who correctly predicts
how many deaths we will have during the game. It will be shared if more
than 1 person gets it right. If no one guesses correctly then it will go the
closest estimate again shared if there is more than 1 competitor the closest
In the event of a tie for any placing that is in the money the
following will determine rankings; number of deaths predicted, closest
guess at number of deaths during the game, who predicted the earliest
death, who predicted the latest death, share the bloody money
Mark and I will try to keep an eye on people's list, but ultimately it is your own responsibility to keep track of things. So Heath you will have to keep a close eye.
