For your chance to win a piece of original Mike Collins 'Daily Star Dredd' artwork and a signed print donated by Jock all you have to do is -

Guess how many deaths will take place in Prog 1336.

Post your entries as replies in this thread. Closing date is the Friday the 11th of April. Closest answer wins. One entry per person. No two people can enter with the same number. In the event of a tie, the person with the lowest guess wins. Answer announced when the Prog arrives through my door. Deaths in the comic must be seen. An explosion that takes out a block will count as one death unless the death toll is announced or a number of bodies is seen. My word is final. I am the law.

3 fatalities.

18.

I am going to go for 5 fatalities

fourteen.

15 deaths.

I'll have 7 I reckon

I predict no deaths at all.

Going out a limb there, but what the hell...

- Trout

Two.

Thank you that will be all.

James

I've changed my mind.

Fourteen.

Thank you that WILL be all now.

James

Reckon I'll go for nine.

You can't have fourteen, James- it's already gone.

Don't worry though- I bet my Dad's still dumber than your Dad...

Matt

Shit! Alright thirteen, and that's my final offer.

I say 27

203 deaths.

I'm gonna say 2, just to really piss James off if I win.

I'm nice like that...

One Million

"I'm gonna say 2, just to really piss James off if I win."

Thanks for that:(

zero

Twelvety

Joolz

A few, can't be more specific than that.

im up for
4 deaths this prog.
does MIA count as death?

why well in canotanese four sounds like DIE.so i think its a fair bet.

Has anybody said eight? If not I'll say it. Or should I go for six? Ooh! I don't know now, I'm all confused. I mean obviously a lot of life is going to be lost in the V.C.s and the double length Dredd, but are the artists going to be too lazy too draw all those deaths?

I mean why draw hundreds of figures when one or two flying bodies will do, right? Ah what the hell, I think I'll go for sixteen no seventeen...Nah, I think I'll have thirty two. Yeah thirty two definitely, no ones chose that already have they?

Got a feeling in my water that says 17.

"I mean obviously a lot of life is going to be lost in the V.C.s and the double length Dredd."

1336 he said, 1336.

Still you've got ABC warriors and that tiger thing starting so you never know...

SHAKOS return
 was going to be the big surprise, but no you had to say something didnt you.

8, on the nose

could be good call 8= prosperity in chinese.

so you may well be on the money there.

23, which I'm going to call my lucky number for 'cos of a recent win on a roulette table

I admit I've seen some big noses in my time, but eight dead bodies balanced on there all at once?

I've seen 15 men on a dead man's chest before, but not 8 dead men on one guys nose.

6

I'll go for 83, but only if deaths include robots, animals and other sentient beings.

Wake

twelvty nah just kidding i can i can't

"Thanks for that:( "

You're welcome >;p

I suppose a 'few' doesn't really quantify though I always thought of it being more than four but less than seven..

'Going to pitch in with my old house number of  55.

46

tum tee tum.... 45 then.

Thanks for that Oddboy. Most helpfull.

Bollocks. How about 70. If anyone has blagged this then please tell me - I'm still working (at 1am on a Friday!) and have popped onto the board while folk are out the room

37

Mornington Crescent?

69

So did anybody win?

Somebody WILL win, whoever gets closest to the correct answer. However as I'm, yet again, waiting for my prog the announcement will be delayed. Soon as I know you all will.

Oh, the tension!
Let it be 7, let it be 7! :)

As I thought we were voting on last weeks prog can I change my vote to three?

No.

Grr! I'm going to visit you in your dreams tonight DXB...and I'll be bringing the monkey in a FEZ!

I fear neither man, monkey or meanie. In that order.

So you fear no man eh DXB? Then how about...



"You an me are gonna be makin' sweet love tonight DXB...Mmmm! Cheap as chips."

Actually I am cheap as chips. That's why I'm still turning tricks on the street and not living as a toy boy in some luxury pad in Brighton.

Ah, but do you fear being propositioned by the Tango (TM) Man?

No, he's a good tipper.

Right, prog got (and it's a goodie) so here's my tally of the deaths. I've done it twice, so this is the official number. If you disagree you can run your own chuffing competitions in future.

Flashbacks don't count in my book.

Dredd - No deaths. There's a shock.

A.B.C. Warriers - 4 guards, 7 Dogs of Gore, 5 bodies seen on the battlefield (last page). 16 fatalities in total.

Snow/Tiger - 3 terrorists, 1 T.A.C.T.I.C. agent. 4 fatalities in total.

GRAND DEATH TOTAL FOR PROG 1336 - 20.

So, with the closest guess of 18 the winner is....
WoD. Send me an e-mail with your adress and I'll get your prize off as soon as I can be bothered.

DXB,

Many, many thanks.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank my parents, my colleagues and of course my wife for their continued support in my efforts to guess right numbers when it counts.

Thank you all.

Blub, blub....


Seriously though, I am well chuffed.  This really perked up me day.  

Cheers again,

Wod

only 20?

bit low still well done WOD.

are we going soft these days? best we bring back ennis i think, he always finds a way to get the body count up in the tens of thousands.he is never one to let himself get limited to a good script or such rubbish.

Now, now, DD. You know there is a special thread for this kind of post...

ILL GO FOR....

37.

Hum. Like Ill win... I never win anything! Sob....

Ill get me coat.

Blimey - I thought Karne had returned for a moment there. Bugger off Darryl, yer bloody necro-poster!

Darryl - it might help if you enter *THIS YEAR'S* competition, rather then 2003's!

37s free in this year's comp, so I've added you anyway.

Good luck!
