Haha. Busted. Thread closed.

You sad, sad cheating little shits.

Well hello there...

Before that, let's remember him with a great quote, shall we?

Just waiting to see all the regulars waking up to this...

Oh, I just heard he was stiff and thought "no change there, then"

Remember when we all thought Bin Laden was the 1,000th DDP hit, and then it turned out to be a fucking snooker commentator? In a similar vein, I think the Queen should die then we find out that Sandy Gall actually carked it four hours earlier.

Well nobody can say he's gone to a better place

Katherine Johnson, Mathematician who helped NASA during the Space Race, and the woman portrayed in the movie Hidden Figures. She's 99 years old and in a wheelchair. Worthy candidate for 2018?

Given the list still has three names (Leah, Gord, Mihai) everyone would've thought have died by now, if the list doesn't further the score yet then "14 hits max" surely has to be as etched into stone as "never finishing at 11 hits".

Those who thought Jake LaMotta would punch his way through another year will be raging 'bull!' when they see the scoreboard, as the death of LaMortta leaves a few teams on the ropes. Here are the scores! 1st - Drol - 21 points 2nd - Grim Up North - 31 points 3rd - The Unknown Man - 37 points =4th - Bibliogryphon - 40 points =4th - Dr_T - 40 points 6th - msc - 41 points =7th - Bert Trautmann - 44 points =7th - Shaun of the Dead - 44 points =7th - The Mad Hatter - 44 points =10th - Book - 48 points =10th - Death Impends - 48 points 12th - CaptainChorizo - 49 points =13th - gcreptile - 51 points =13th - GraveDanger - 51 points 15th - Phantom of the Midway - 53 points 16th - Garn2 - 54 points 17th - YoungWillz - 56 points 18th - CharonsCrew - 62 points =19th - Joeyruss - 63 points =19th - WednesdayAddams - 63 points 21st - Deathray - 68 points 22nd - Switch - 73 points 23rd - Toast - 76 points 24th - Dead Cow - 77 points 25th - rockhopperpenguin - 82 points =26th - Pedro67 - 87 points =26th - esher - 87 points 28th - Angels - 119 points

I took a photo of the moment when 4 years are tied for the record, so I will post it as a piece of time before a new record is likely...

Looking back at that "good analysis": 1. Peter Sallis: I thought he was a goner in 2016, I certainly do in 2017. One year I might be right... 2. Tony Booth: Falling to pieces, if he makes 2018, give him a medal. 3. Jake Lamotta – Not sure how he made his 96th year. 4. Hugh Hefner – Old. 5. Joost van der Westhuizen – Frail at Christmas, lasted 6 years with ALS now. 6. Mary Tyler Moore – Her again! 7. Errol Christie – “Year to live” sometime pre-May 2016. A cert. 8. Ian Brady – Says he is terminally ill. I say he’s a scumbag liar, but a hit here would be lovely. 9. Glen Campbell – A must for 2017, surely. 10. Liz Dawn – First time on the Deathlist, despite many years of folk asking for her. The Ali gambit once more? 11. John Noakes – Said to be very poorly with dementia when he disappeared in Summer 2015. He was found, and survived 2016, but it suggests 2017 might be a tough one for him. 12. Bruce Forsyth – Probably a banker, imo. 13. Jerry Lewis – Oh, he’s back. 14. David Rockefeller – Very old. About 9/14 there. On those numbers, a look back at those still living I suggested were in trouble: Kirk Douglas: A decent shot on age. Vera Lynn: Reportedly in frail health and unable to attend things now. A solid pick. Herman Wouk: Quite old. Leah Bracknell: Stage IV cancer and reliant on shamans. Fucked. Gord Downie: terminal glioblastoma. A cert. Leslie Phillips – Not only quiet since those strokes, but pics of him in the Mail were hideous last year. On the road out. King Michael – leukaemia in a 95 year old is probably trouble. Nobby Stiles – Said to be “gravely ill”. Jill Gascoine – Husband said she was in the final stages of dementia. Difficult to judge these things in time. Ian St John – bladder cancer spreading after surgery. Fecked. Pope Benedict XVI – Said to be in very frail health. Fats Domino – Still no idea how he’s outlived most of his contemporaries. His healthier contemporaries. Akihito – General view? If the Japanese government committee are suggesting he can abdicate, in Japan, then he’s fucked. Valerie Harper – Well she is still terminal, just how slowly terminal? Not quite the Sean list of the dead, but if there are further hits, I still expect them to come from that list above.

Did Billy Graham die and nobody tell me?

which lucky lady was he on the job with at the time. They probably had a sweepstake going

Thread locked. But while I have your attention Mad Hatter, post any more porn, even in cartoon format and you're gone, permanently. Starting threads like this won't do your long term prospects much good either. We really don't like banning people and you are capable of being halfway amusing on rare occasions, but that seems to be the exception rather than the rule these days and all this attention seeking twattery is starting to grate a bit.

Alf was played by a Jew.

Well that's me with another post-Hefner, so much better than last year, but the Committee are still the best: DL - 14; YW - 9.

How about Chubby Checker?

Wooooooooo

Bring it! Although I think this year it might be even more difficult to predict, there's a heck of a lot of good candidates this year if they make the top 50.
