6 pointsThe Tennessee Two became the Tennessee Three in 1960 when WS Holland joined it, however, he's dead at 85, taking it down to the Tennessee Two. EDIT: Actually it's the Tennessee None because Marshall Grant and Luther Perkins are dead.

4 pointsFirst off, congrates. Second, 205th hit of 2020 (confirmed). Here's the numbers to start keeping an eye on: > 2020 - 205 > 2019 - 253 > 2018 - 247 > 2017 - 254 > 2016 - 275 > 2015 - 239 > 2014 - 247 > 2013 - 219 2016 is the DDP record holder for most deaths and it reached 205th on the 28th September, so 2020 is currently 4 days ahead. These things don't have a pattern but I thought that'd interest the stats fans.

3 pointsYes 3396 is correct. Although it was actually about 8,000 unique spellings that had to be pared down to 3396 different picks.

1 pointWell the file on entrants I think must have every living candidate as it has over 13, 000 celebs on it, and this year we have 487 teams so can only have 9740 different celebs at most. (And obviously don't, just see the Drop 40...) Ah ok, xls confuses me (I'm the words guy not the programmer) but it looks like 3396 different picks, of which 2322 are unique. The third question is beyond my knowledge.

1 pointOut of curiosity how many different names were entered by deadpoolers in 2020 in total in the DDP and secondly how many of them are unique and is the proportion of uniques rising year on year ? Thanks @msc

The first was Andre's team from 1988, which impressively has five dead wrestlers, two dead managers and a dead pre-match interviewer as seen from this photo:

1 pointLucille Starr, the first female Canadian country music singer to sell one million records, the first Canadian woman to be inducted into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame and the first Canadian woman to perform at Nashville's famous Grand Ole Opry, has died. She was 82. I suppose the epitaph writes itself. (In Kenny Rogers voice: "You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.") https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/lucille-starr-country-music-manitoba-1.5714448

1 pointGood spot. Courier in April: "Heather keeps in contact with Quant but admits the designer is now “quite frail”. “It’s funny but most people think she’s younger than she actually is. We celebrated her 90th birthday in February. “She chopped four years off her age when she and Alexander got together...because he was younger than her. In those days, that sort of thing mattered.” DLy and worthy of a thread imo.
