I'm not surprised, stupid place to stand.

Hello This is my first ever post. I would like to nominate the former mercenary and British soldier Colonel 'Mad Mike' Hoare. He's led an extraordinary and fascinating life, you can read all about him on Wikipedia. We've all got to go sometime of course but Mike Hoare will celebrate his 101st birthday if he survives until March 17th 2020.

They'll be dead!

There's clearly something not right about Madonna. Be it illness or her rampant narcissism. Actually, that could be her killer blow, the fact shes not the person she thinks she was. Even my other half whose a massive fan thinks shes loosing the plot - Madame X is a clearly a cover up for something.

Oh that's demoralising. That's it, the campaign to get him on the 2021 list starts now. #Schaferknackered2021

All good Sean Here's how the battleground for the Crowdsource list is currently looking like 41. 321 42. 309 43. 297 44. 287 45. 285 46. 278 47. 277 48. 264 49. 255 50. 253 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 51. 244 52. 243 53. 241 54. 238 55. 235 56. 234 57. 234 58. 212 59. 211 60. 206 Anything is possible really, I'm just showing you that's kind of about where the margin is to qualify...

The one who knew Jeffrey Epstein. I put him and Ghislaine Maxwell on my list, because I think their lives are in danger. Happy new year!

Btw, if you aren’t submitting a list because you think your list will have 0 impact on the crowdsource, you couldn’t be further from the truth. Especially this year. Multiple names have made some major comebacks within the last few days. Which means there is still time to make a bit of a shakeup on the crowdsource list...

I know, I just added a bit to my comment above. Your English is fine!

There's more than 4k Indian MLAs, plus they tend to be on the older side to begin with. Not surprising imo.

Thank you! And thanks for joining this fine little game in 2019... and in 2020! Happy New Year everyone!!!

Since Alex Trebek has been suggested several times. I suggest Johnny Gilbert who has been the announcer for Jeopardy since 1984. At 95 no telling how long he will be with us. Perhaps his life in Jeopardy as much as Trebek's.

Submitted my team, which confessedly is fairly conventional. While I'm keeping hopeful of a top 10 spot, I doubt there's that extra oomph for an outright win. All I personally wanted is one DDP win, and with that likely to finally happen, and the way life is shifting meaning I likely won't have as much time for extensive research, I now shift to a more relaxed approach, largely picking the (competitive) names I want to pick, even if some others are better coldly logically. Good luck to all! (and of course, if I lose the lead within the remaining hours, then that's a sign from the deadpool Gods I shouldn't bother trying to win anyway... )

12 hours left to enter. 26 entrants in so far. Will we match last year's 30? The new submission format and my new Excel table work great. Thank you for making it easy.

PM sent.

Hi Book, I managed to remember the deadline this year! I'd like to submit my Shadow List with Hosni Mubarak as a sub.

Sarah Knauss, the second oldest person of history, died on this day 20 years ago, aged 119.

Loved the scene at the end of Rogue One when Darth Vader took Down all the rebels. One of the best moments in the franchise With Darth Vader

Andrew is coming by?
