Deathray

She's the last living victorian and oldest person in Britain, you'd kind of expect the British press to make summat of it, yes.

If he's aware of death pooling he's almost certainly aware of this site... wonder if he's reading this? If you are Sam we're not picking you because we want you to die, (in fact as a simpsons fan, I'd prefer it if you were immortal) the fact is your young, have admitted you have cancer and are probably going to die and DDP rewards that kind of choice in teams. P.S of the thousands of mildly famous people who are potentially going to die next your, you're so well respected by a DDP team to be chosen as one of just 20 names they can through in a hat, that should be an accolade on your end. We love you Sam, may you do a Wilko on us please.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-30575063 Peruse the notable deaths to remind yourself of all the people you didn't get on the DDP this year,

On the basis that those 50 names are HIS choices and not names that he thinks should be on the official list then, no. If people want to have their own shadow list and post them up on this thread why shouldn't they? Its not like the board is going to be clogged up is it. But then there's already a thread they and he can use http://www.deathlist...?showtopic=8439 Perhaps they should be merged and renamed shadow lists by one of our kind mods/admins?

Shouldn't these threads be posts in the "Who should be on the 2015 Deathlist thread?", I can envisage a million shadow deathlist threads which seems pointless.

I've decided on my two themes, naturally won't reveal them until January. My main team was fully written up to send last night, until the computer shut itself down and I didn't utilise the save draft function. Edit: 2 ready just got to do the most research intensive one.

Cheers for the teams guys, I make that 4 entries so far. Make sure to keep an eye on your teams from this year, remember it ain't over until the fat scottish lady (so most of 'em) sings auld langs syne. P.S Next year should run slightly more smoothy *grits teeth*

how do I get on the committee? Thought you were banned, or is this a different moron taking up the mantle?

The fact that soap operas haven't been released in full on DVD (Corrie and Eastenders to be precise), that'd surely be good form-studying ground. Plus the fact that from the 10 or so early episodes of Corrie available on youtube, it just looks better in those days, why can't we have the entire lot to watch at our leisure? EDIT: So apparently most episodes of corrie from 1976-91 are available on YouTube with an intermittent splattering of episodes prior to, I'll take that.

Thank goodness that's all over now, we focus on the NYE DDP Team dash from henceforth...

My main team doing shit 482nd place and 4 points (1 hit - Chapman Pincher). Next years should be much more competitive. My Centenarians team fairing better at 90th place and 30 points (5 hits) Let's not talk about Serving Heads of State a theme team that will be being dropped this year...

They used to do it all the time for the Chancellor's birthday in the 1940s... I'll get my coat. I feel like a bad person for laughing at that joke...

What did you get kicked out for? Unless it's a case of mistaken identity?

Why has my score plummeted from 928 points to 99? Have I misunderstood the scoring system? Oh fuck, I've cocked up one side or the other. The most likely thing is because I've been use T for you and TE for the engineer on my master list some of your points have gone the_engineers way.

Please ignore this post.

*ahem* Gimme a break, The sun was blazing when you entered and I was confused about whether it was a late 2014 entry. It's still technically the first entry and as you're the forum pedant I would expect you to be as rigid with being correct in your own posting as you appear to be with others. In all seriousness I wish I'd been that organised with the Hares Death Pool... got some fucking horrid catching up to do. I am hoping to have the update out tonight.

*ahem*

Next question, who decided who the committee was?

The maths here seems a bit iffy.

That's less than one a day, slacker.

Am I okay to PM you my teams this year?
