RULES  Pick a film with at least three (or four) remaining cast members and submit the name of the film and the three selected cast members on this forum  The first player to have all three of their cast members die wins the round. No two players can pick the same film but are allowed to duplicate cast members  If two players end up with their single remaining pick being the same performer then they are obliged to add a tie breaker to their team this can be any member of their film's cast or crew.   At the end of the round entries are wiped and everyone picks again. All films in the previous rounds are out of bounds (though could be reintroduced in the subsequent round). Winning films will go into the Hall of Fame and are out of bounds for the whole game.  The Game will start on Sunday 22nd November 2020 but late entries will be permitted. However late entries may not duplicate actors. Those that have already sent me teams via PM will be included on the masterlist other wise post below but check the first game as no duplicates films are allowed.

Today the world lost a nasty brutal man who spread nothing but fear and misery and whom everyone despised.But enough a bout Dominic Cummings departure. Peter Sutcliffe also died !

I'll say.

TL;DR. You’re not entering. So piss off.

https://m.lenta.ru/news/2020/11/14/djgarhanyan/amp/. Legendary Armenian-Russian actor Armen Dzhigarkhanyan has died at age of 85. He was my pick in Doug Stanhope Deadpool, AO DP and a few other pools.

Peter Sutcliffe the infamous Yorkshire Ripper has died. West Yorkshire Police are looking to bury a man with a Geordie Accent.

Not my business OoO, (or toast) but for the avoidance of bad feeling amongst people I respect I rather think Toasty was referring to the (mis)use of the word 'decimates' than any demeaning of the position you sadly seem to have been put in.

The Hall of Fame Time Bandits as played by @gcreptile

Indeed, a pretty big name. He had health issues in the past, documented on here, too. Someone I would like to have picked somewhere.

What's with the last 10 days or so? Trump going, Cummings gone, vaccine on its way, Sutcliffe dead. Has 2020 decided to be nice for a change or is it saving up for something truly horrific?

50th Anniversary of the television report by Paul Linnman, who stood on a beach in Florence, Oregon, reporting on the dead 45-foot 8-ton sperm whale that had washed up on shore. The Oregon Highway Division had decided the best way to remove the dead 8-ton sperm whale that had washed ashore was to stuff it with 24 cases of dynamite and blow it up. The idea was that the rotting whale would be nearly disintegrated by the blast, and that any smaller pieces left over would be taken care of by seagulls or other scavengers. But it didn’t go as planned. Enjoy the video. SC

Quite high. 9 of the last 16 years have had at least 2 hits after Nov 11.It has to be said that only one year before 2004 did though.

I keep thinking he is dead for some reason. Same with 80 year old Roy Walker.

Sutcliffe’s Deathlist obit is definitely one of the better modern deathlist obits for sure. Alas, the typos on Stiles’ and Trebek’s obit remain...

Death Notice for Captain John Vivian Ritchie, Guy Ritchie's father, aged 92: http://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/deaths/245619/ritchie Edit: Actually see his death was referenced in the Mail: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-8938325/Guy-Ritchie-pays-moving-tribute-late-father-grandfather-Remembrance-Day.html

ya got me, I'm converted !

His nextdoor neighbour was interviewed and said "He was a total cunt to live beside, every time I asked him for the lend of a hammer he said he didn't own any!"

DYING ON THESE LONG SUMNER NIGHTS 15/50 13th August 2020 Media magnate and well known lover of steaks Sumner Redstone has died at 97 to give the Crowdsourced list another hit. He began his career as a special assistant to US attorney general Tom C Clark. Afterwards he joined his father's theatre chain National Amusements, and in 1967 he became the CEO of that company. After suffering and recovering severe burns at a fire at the Copley Plaza, he set his eyes at Viacom, which he ended up getting after a four month hostile takeover in 1987. He next went to purchase Paramount Communications in 1994, and won after a bidding war with Barry Diller and John Malone. His biggest acquisition was that of CBS, however, which was the company that used to own Viacom before Redstone got it. He was executive chairman of both CBS and Viacom before he resigned in 2016. In recent years, he was more known for being one of the immortals that would never seemingly die, and was also known for his profound love of the tasty steak. He finally died at 97 to the surprise of everyone, who all thought he would live on forever, but just like Clive Dunn, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and Le Duc Anh, it is proven once again that immortals don't exist. He scores after two years of being off the list, in what I believe is the first successful boomerang pick (ie returning after being dropped off the previous year).

I've always said @BuffaloPhil was a man of impeccable decision making qualities. Ok, I understand his recent court case hasn't cast him in the greatest of lights, perhaps with damn good reason. But he doesn't strike me as the suicidal type because of it. Yet no less than 2 of our more esteemed colleagues pick him? What am I missing here? Long story short, Huh?

The economy? Fucked. Business? Fucked. Our standing in the world? Fucked. EU citizens in the UK? Fucked. UK citizens in the EU? Fucked. Rights and freedoms? Fucked. Democracy? Fucked. Response to Covid? Fucked. Honesty? Fucked. People’s confidence in government? Fucked. The whole country is fucked. And it’s largely thanks to this ball bag, who today gets to fuck off without facing the music. Completely unelected, he’s been the most powerful man in the country and has orchestrated its transition into a satire playing on a fuzzy old telly that’s burning away in a skip fire. Cummings is a horrendous little worm and I hope an overwhelming feeling of misery and dread gnaws incessantly at his brain for the rest of his life.

True, although his total share of the vote was less than Sutcliffe

OK , I lied. I don't have some sort of a life Alex Trebek was a hit for 26 out of the 43 players. That seems to be a record, beating Leah Bracknells record of 22 set last year. First up, he was a hit for the leader Grim Up North. This brings Grim up to 17 hits, which breaks the record for most hits in this game, set by MSC in 2018. It also brings Grim up to 2888 points - another record, beating John Keys 2805 set last year. He was also a hit for the next 5 players on the scoreboard, keeping them all in contention as the game hots up. Remarkably, the 10 players in positions 7-16 on the last scoreboard all had Trebek as their wildcard, instantly bringing them all closer to the leaders, and causing a major bottleneck in the fight for the minor places. Only 275 points, or 1 hit, separates Etush in 2nd from Banana in 16th. Ans as Grim continues to streak ahead, it is worth noting that there are now 5 players within 2 hits of the leader, with more likely to join that list as the days tick by. Spare a thought also for CaptainChorizo. With Alex Trebeks demise, he equalled the old record of 16 hits in the game.... and dropped from 3rd place to 9th in the process .

Saw this on Twitter, it’s a list of 23 words for things people feel but have difficulty explaining. I only knew a couple of these, and most of the rest I’ve been searching for for years.
