All right. So Dan's just bitten the dust. And we got three hours of show left this season. I highly doubt there will be no more deaths.
So here's how it's gonna work. You all get 10 betting chips. And you can place them on whoever you like. You can place all ten on one person, or all ten on different people.
I haven't looked up a single spoiler. I have no idea who's going to die; if anyone at all - though I'm sure at least SOMEONE will. So for those of us who don't read spoilers, you can spend your 'chips' on whichever character(s) you please, the odds of whom dying are given below. Yeah, it's kind of biased cause I basically plucked these numbers out of the air ... but obviously some people (e.g. Locke) seem much safer from death than someone like Ilana or Miles. With the recent deaths of Caesar and Dan though, it does seem that no one is safe.
What do you win? Well, nothing really. Fish biscuits, maybe. Or the knowledge that you're better than everyone else on this site.
It's not just about correctly guessing who's going to die; it's also about where you place your chips. If you place all ten on Locke, and he dies, then you get 3000 points. Whereas if you place 5 on Hurley and 5 on Sun and they both die, you'd only get 300 points. You with me? Okay, good.
Oh, and one final word: this applies to EVERYTHING shown in the next three episodes. Whether it's flashback, flash forward, or whatever. I'll discount dreams. But this does mean that someone like Radzinsky isn't necessarily safe; sure, we're almost certain he will survive the events of 1977. But what if we see a future scene of him killing himself in The Swan? etc.
Place your bets now ...

I guess I didn't include everyone; if you want to bid for someone who's not there then say so and I'll add them to the list.
Some of the odds I've chosen might be 'questionable' but who cares? That just makes it more fun.
