Niemeyer was 94 years old when he first appeared in 2002 on the list and ten years later he died 104 years old in 2012. In total he had 9 appearences before he went. so between 2002 and 2012 he was taken nearly in every year on the list.

Happy Birthday Ieoh Ming Pei, probably the most notable living Architect ! It is a riddle to me why he has not been considered on official DL like O. Niemeyer some years ago. However, he remains on my personal DL. https://www.usatoday.com/picture-gallery/travel/2017/04/26/world-famous-architect-im-pei-turns-100/100911514/

Well, to be honest I didnt really expect an OBIT for Zhou Youguang and thats how I didnt consider him in my personnel DL. Maybe thats the same reason why the comittee did never consider him? It`s bloody difficult, like a bet you have to place, cause you never know before if People like Zhou Youguang are really obitable.

I could be wrong but I'm sure someone said on the forums years ago the deathlist committee limit the amount of people over a 100 on the list. Yes, that could be right. I have analyzed the average Age of all 50 People in official deathlist in the past years. The average is constant at about 88 years. By the way, I follow the same approach regarding my own shadow list. Of course I could reach a lot more hits if I would adjust the year-average upwards and put some more centenarians in my list. but this is not particularly challenging in my point of view.

The new Number One is now Zoltan Sarosy, a hungarian chess master. He is 110 years old
