Thats a very polished way of saying “I got it wrong all the other years so just as well the DL committee ignored me”.

A remake of the old one which died out as rounds kept being triggered and it was just very messy and had no clear end date.I have a way of fixing it though by amending the objective and setting a clear finishing line. -Pick 50 names of famous people born in the 1950s. -First person who has a full 50 dead names wins. -Picks must have either a national or international BBC news article.The picks death must be the subject of the article not just mentioned within an article.To put it more simply no local regional BBC articles. -If a pick does not get the QO they can be replaced 6 months after they have been deceased -All entries must be PM'd to me or placed on this thread by 23:59 on Sunday 6th October 2019.The game will start at 00:00 Monday 7th October 2019 until we have a winner. -Once an entry has been submitted there can be no ammendments. Good Luck

My name is purely a tribute to the great man in my picture. It's not even an area of personal interest for me.

I did drag for a laugh when I was 15 (don't ask). Wasn't a fan of the name I was assigned for the night. Like with everything, I spent way too long after the fact brainstorming drag names. So if my flapper girl persona ever emerges again, I'll be Clorox.

Well played old chap.

I assume the family haven't taken her to see the movie!

He is immortal then !

I'm basically with the reply above - well enough known to a generation of rock fans to be nailed-on obitable and likely mentioned in almost all our major daily papers and main television news bulletins (unless he carks the day we leave the EU)

Nope he is a household name in Britain.

I’ll get my prediction in early for NZ-Namibia (scheduled for 6th Oct): NZ by 1,425.

Austrian pianist Paul Badura-Skoda dead at 91: https://www.gramophone.co.uk/classical-music-news/pianist-paul-badura-skoda-has-died-at-the-age-of-91 Hmm, my 54321 team draft is now so depleted I currently have Donald Trump on it.

Eh, okay... I've been wearing the name "reptile" on the internet for years... in fact, it must be 15-16 years now since I began using this alias as a young player of the Civilization strategy games on the internet. The origin is the song "Reptile" by American industrial band Nine Inch Nails. The "gc" was my former "guild" tag. Yes we had guilds even then, before World of Warcraft.

And now Jimmy Spicer has died: So we wait...

Cheers. I was just poking fun. I actually like it for its simplicity, but hearing your explanation adds a couple of layers for sure. Me, I'm just a skinny guy that wears a kilt when I race. And no, I don't go regimental, before someone cracks wise.

Says Toast. If you are interested, the story of my name is as follows. I originally attempted to register as Brown Bread (rhyming slang for dead), but there was already someone registered with that name. So I came up with Toast as an alternative, because: 1. Toast is bread which has become brown. 2. It is another slang term for death. 3. It's also a cheerful expression involving drinking

Honestly though, watch it be someone with 0 votes for maximum surprise.

I remember the fake news calling the French cowards and taking the piss out of Chirac at that time. History will speak fondly of him, same won't be said about the evil twats Blair and Bush.

Yes was No. An awful band. I'm glad it's gone. Perhaps there is God after all

Can I have my name changed to Deathray? I hear it's available...

The metropolis of Maryport situated on the west Cumbrian coast is a hub of fun and good times, and the seat of generations of my clan.

I used to own a Holden (General Motors Australia) Commodore which had SV5000 along the side panels, for it was indeed a special vehicle and verily had an engine of five litres. I left it parked outside a friend's house to find the next morning some clown had written "GUNJAMAN" across the doors, ending right where the 5000 started, which I'm sure was meant to be "GANGAMAN". After getting over the cost of a respray and being stopped twice a day by the local constabulary, I found a funny(ish) side and insisted I be called by the name 'sent by God'. It didn't catch on. Beats Rodney though.
