Putting everyone's list together (finally!)
Late entries always welcome, only 1 person has scored so far, so big disadvantage!
There following entered last year but not this, if you resubmit, any that you have rolled over from last year will still get the points if they die within the week. This includes @Fowlers God , who has asked me who he had on his last entry in 2019!
And if I've got the name change correct, @Captain Willard

Damn, I realised one of mine died in the summer and I missed it, thought I had a surprise podium finish!
-
Should get onto it next week, and if anyone still wants to enter please do, you can join mid-game

Haven't had a chance to go through anyone's list yet, work is busy and the wife has had covid for the last week and isolating, so I've had to do every bloody school run, shop run, lunch, dinner, evening kids club etc...
But here's my list
Shannen Doherty Nigel Starmer-Smith Jimmy Carter Rosalynn Carter Linda Nolan Tom Parker Jerry Lee Lewis Bill Treacher June Brown Pele -
If you haven’t played before please get involved. Rules listed below.
1. Each contestant much pick 10 celebrities who they think will die between 00:01, 24th January 2022 and 23:59 31st December 2022. Lists are final as of the starting time.
I will accept late entries, perhaps someone finds this thread half way through the year and would like to enter, however if someone dies within 1 week you won't get the points for it.
2. When the death has been confirmed, points will be awarded, and the people who had them chosen may choose a new celebrity for their list.
3. A celebrity is defined as a person who lives their life in the public domain. If we have not heard of them, then we can reject them. A good rule of thumb is if they have a Wikipedia page that you didn't just make.
4. Death row prisoners and people in public 'right to die' cases are not permitted.
5. Your picks can be any age at all. No minimum or maximum for the categories, but points will be awarded like this:
50+ - 10 points
35-49 - 20 points
Under 35 - 30 points
6. You will get fewer points if it is one of your replacements which dies. This is because the new pick may be based on more recent news, so is not 'as skilled' as an original pick.
50+ - 9 points
35-49 - 15 points
Under 35 - 20 points
Please PM me your lists, and I will begin the spreadsheet. Even if you want your list carried over from last year, please PM me to let me know so that I can 1. confirm your list, and 2. keep track in one place who has entered. This also stops people copying your lists. Once the game begins, I will post the lists here. When you're sending your lists in, please put in the categories of your entrants in order like this...
1. John 50+
2. Mike 50+
3. Steve 50+
4. Sam 50+
5. Arnold 50+
6. Peter 50+
7. David 35-49
8. Liam 35-49
9. Tom U35
10. Paul U35
Please don't use nicknames!
I will not open the PM until my list is posted.
Good luck everyone!

AND NEW DEALTHLIST CHAMPION OF TLW IS.....
@littletedwest obviously!
Congrats mate, and a cracking score too, I think my top score was 90, so you've beat that, and I don't know if anyone has had 8 deaths before either. I am glad to pass over the title of the forum's grim reaper, it has been a heavy burden for the past 5 years!
littletedwest - 94 points
Rush Limburgh
Prince Philip
Leon Spinks
Jimmy Greaves
Dustin Diamond
Capt Tom Moore
DMX
Sarah Harding
Evelyn Intentions - 49 points
Desmond Tutu
Prince Philip
Hal Holbrook
Christopher Plummer
Betty White
Strontium Dog, Bjornebye and Redheart all on 39 points
All with Prince Philip, Cap Tom Moore and DMX.
Stronts had Rush Limbaugh
Stig had Murray Walker
Redheart made a late charge on to the podium with Betty White
The Rest
The Woolster, Atticus Finch & No2 - 29 points
Vladimirllyich, Red_or_Dead & Gruntfuttock - 20 points
Bruce Spanner - 19 points
Alles ist Gut, Harry's Lad, Tokyo Joe & Colonel Kurtz (RIP) - 10 points

Overall, pretty good scoring, usually there is a fair few more with zero deaths.

On 02/02/2021 at 12:28, Evelyn Tentions said:I'll replace Hal Holbrook with Bobby Charlton.
Ok, this could be controversial...
According to Wiki, Hal Holbrook actually died on 23rd January, and the competition started from 1st February, however, his death was not announced by his family until 2nd February. Unless Evelyn admits otherwise, I presume he did not have inside info on this, so I am going to give him the points!
This does however change the leaderboard...

Soon!

I had it 11-1. Masterclass

Just watched it and avoided the result.
Porter is one of my favourite fighters in recent times, love his heart, love the interactions in the corner with his dad, and he seems like the most decent, respectful man in boxing. He's really really good fighter, just not quite great.
I had it 3-3 after 6, but had Crawford winning the next 3. Stopped early, but don't think there was any chance of him winning after the 2 knockdowns, don't think not helped that he got so angry after the 2nd one.

Sounds ace!
Great work Bruce, sounds more time consuming than some of the laborious crap I've done on here!
(would like to get the Bang the Drum thread going again, just don't know if I have the time!)
I'm not on the forum much, I might need a poke when it gets going or its my turn to pick

Never played footy manager, what do I need to do?
I mean, I'll be in whatever the answer is, but would be good to know!

Err, soz, seems like I've not been on the thread since April... not getting on the site much since I've been WFH!
Don't know if anyone has taken it upon themselves to add it up, if not, I will try to find the time soon(ish)
