Vegas wins A and gets first choice with score of 35
shadow wins B and gets second choice with score of 30
Blue wins C and gets third choice with score of 25
Ds winner has already won....so combined totals come in (but not for vegas, blue or shadow who have already won)

Gkun totals 45
sorrow totals 40 (and didnt do D...)
Ian totals 35



So Vegas>shadow>blue>gkun

My stats come from the "101 crazy ways to die" book from matt roper, available at most good NZ bookshops

Thanks for the book title. I am going to try to buy it if I can find it. In my search, I came across a book which I want to order called Final Exits. Statistics on the deaths in your list (the ones I could find) vary from site to site. I can only imagine the variations are due to differences in dates and region covered by each specific website (some only dealt with those deaths which happened in the USA, or Africa, or India, etc)

I know what to try to watch out for now in order to avoid a precipitated death. rofl Not really.

@vegas, Yep I think the book is based on international reports...And stats come from all over

I.e most puffer deaths are in japan

Most man hole deaths are in poor countrys where people steal them to sell for scrap

most obviously stupid how could anyone kill them that sort of way type deaths...happen in America

Etc

@sorrow, its still being decided in main forum
