Rob Burrow a hit for me here. I'll presume I'm not alone. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/articles/c2qqwvwzp5zo

Well, Rob Burrow not on my team I assume. Was he on yours?
-
Well that. is a bugger. I nip out to the shops and come back to this. Needless to say, he was on my Poker Team, so in comes a sub and I'll pick another. RIP Rob, inevitable though it was.
-
Cool, no rush of course. Game doesn't start until 1 July. You may want to hang on to see if any low hanging fruit suddenly appears on the trees of the woodlands surrounding the Casino!
-
May the fours be with you!

As a former champ, it will be great to have you back.

Harry van Hoof, prominent Dutch composer who conducted the orchestra at Eurovision many times for the Netherlands, reportedly dead: https://nos-nl.translate.goog/artikel/2522863-componist-en-songfestival-dirigent-harry-van-hoof-81-overleden?_x_tr_sl=nl&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc&_x_tr_hist=true And here he is with Teach-In for their winning 1975 entry:

Here is my team, to be revealed at commencement of game: 1. 6, 7 - 9 Clubs 2. 5, 5 - K Spades 3. 5, 5 - 10 Spades 4. 7, 5 - J Clubs 5. 7, 6 - 7 Spades 6. 6, 10 - K Hearts 7. 3, 6 - Q Hearts 8. 5, 3 - 4 Clubs 9. 3, 7 - 6 Hearts 10. 8, 6 - Q Clubs 11. 4, 3, 4 - 6 Clubs 12. 5, 8 - 5 Spades 13. 5, 6 - A Clubs 14. 4, 3 - 8 Spades 15. 3, 6 Rob Burrow (DNS) 5, 7 - K Clubs 16. 7, 9 - A Hearts 17. 4, 8 - 10 Clubs 18. 8, 9 - 10 Diamonds 19. 5, 4, 5 - 5 Hearts 20. 6, 6 - Black Joker 21. 3, 6 - 5 Clubs 22. 3, 6 - K Diamonds 23. 6, 6 - 4 Diamonds 24. 4, 7 - 4 Hearts 25. 7, 4 - 8 Diamonds Subs: William Russell A. 5, 7, 5 B. 6, 7 C. 4, 6. D. 4, 7 E. 4, 4. To show my honesty, here is the Random.org allocation of cards:
-
The Rules. Adrian Mateos gives you the side eye, so watch your step, ladies and gentlemen! You pick 25 names. That's it. Then the game runner allocates a playing card from Random.org to each of your picks in the order you list them. If your pick dies within the period of the game you gain 100 points. Bonuses are awarded for poker hands as follows: High Card (i.e. an Ace) - 5 Points Pair (Two cards of same value) - 10 Points Two Pair (Two Cards of same value plus two cards of a separate value) - 15 Points Three of a Kind (Three of same value) - 20 Points Straight (5 Cards of any suit forming a sequence e.g. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) - 30 Points Flush (5 Cards of any value of the same suit) - 40 Points Full House (Three cards of the same value, and two of another value) - 80 Points Four of a Kind (Four cards of the same value) - 100 Points Straight Flush including a Royal Flush (Five cards forming a sequence of the same suit) - 150 points. Bonuses are cumulative. So say early on you gain say, a pair. If you subsequently gain another pair you would get the bonus for the second pair (10 points) plus the bonus for two pair (15 Points). If you made a straight, say 5-6-7-8-9, then hit a sixth death with a 10 allocated, you would gain an additional straight bonus for 6-7-8-9-10. Winner has the most points at the end of the game. DDP Obit rules in force from time to time would apply (excepting Yahoo only obits). No Jokers or Uniques rules. I am including one Black Joker and one Red Joker in the possible cards you can draw. If you draw such a card in your main team, you will receive 50 Additional Bonus Points for the hit if your pick dies. You are able to nominate at any time during the game a card THAT YOU HAVE NOT DRAWN FOR ANY OTHER PICK as a substitute for a Joker, whose pick has died. You will still receive 50 points for a Joker in any event, but you can then use your substitute nominated card to make straights or flushes for example (you still need to have your Joker Pick die for it to count). Once you have nominated the substitute card, you cannot change the nomination again - only one substitute card per Joker. You must play your Joker, if you have a hit with one, by the end of St Andrews Day (30 November 2024). If you hit with a Joker after 30 November, you have 2 days or up until 31 December 2024 (whichever is earlier), to nominate your substitute card. Red Joker you pick a red card, Black Joker you pick a black card. Only persons notable in their own right, famous for a contribution of some kind are allowed. They must be aged 18 and over on or before 30 June 2024 and human. Members of the Illuminati considered reptilian will be deemed to be human for the purposes of this game. Entries must be received and validated by me by 11:59 pm (BST) on 30 June 2024. The bonuses are so valuable and cumulative that FFBI picks and persons with reflected fame only (PRF) will be excluded. FFBI and PRF are in the opinion of the game runner. The FFBI rule basically excludes anyone famous or infamous for their illness or anything consequential to their illness. This therefore in general excludes campaigners, fundraisers, bloggers, authors of books on their illness and the like. PRF excludes family members, hangers on and the like who in the opinion of the game runner has fame as a result of someone else's fame, but does not exclude such persons if they have a claim to fame themselves separate and distinct from any additional reflected fame (for example, the murderer of a famous person would not fall foul of the PRF rule). So for example Marian Shields Robinson would have been excluded, because being famous for nothing except sticking her foot in the Whitehouse simply isn't enough. Consideration will be given on a case by case basis, but competitors are actively discouraged from giving the game runner a hard time! Do not actively seek loopholes! If one is found, the game runner will be sole arbiter. Death row inmates or anyone under sentence of death whether at the start of the game or for its duration are excluded completely. With regard to terrorists of any hue, confirmation in a qualifying obit of their death by the terrorist organisation to which they belong will suffice. The Strickland/Lucan Rule excludes anyone missing as at the start of the game, or anyone who might be dead and who is officially declared to be dead during the game by judicial or other authority under presumption of death laws. For the avoidance of doubt, someone who famous simply for their longevity (e.g. supercentenarian, oldest person in a country) is included, but they must still obviously garner a qualifying obit. At the end of each month, all players will be invited over to the Card Roulette Table. As host I will draw an equivalent number of cards from Random.org IN ONE GO from one pack to the number of teams participating. That draw will be posted on the thread and players will receive a number of points based on their position in the field. For example, I will always get the first card, as my team shall be first to be posted, second team in gets card 2 and so on. The value attributed to each card will be the same as those for a substitute outlined below (Ace high = 14 points, King = 13 points, etc etc down to a deuce = 2 Points). So if there are 30 teams, 30 cards are drawn and allocated, so your timing of putting your team in may be crucial. The game will open on 1 July 2024 and deaths on 1 July according to official sources up to and including 31 December 2024 will count. Therefore a pick who is subsequently found to have died before commencement but after the game has started is excluded and a substitute will be inserted in place of that person (if a sub has been provided by the player). The game will be terminated at midnight on the turn between 5/6 January 2025, to allow time for news of death to be published (the Dietz-Werner Steck rule). It is recommended that you consider up to 5 substitutes along with your team. If a substitute dies without making it into your main team for any reason, the game runner will draw a card from Random.org on being notified of their death and gaining a qualifying obit and you will gain additional points equivalent to the value of that card (Ace high = 14 points, King = 13 points, etc etc down to a deuce = 2 Points). Your sub card will not count towards bonuses however, and it does not gain the 100 point death award. The game runner will be allowed to enter a team. That team will be published in the thread at commencement of opening entries, but to avoid influence (the Toast Rule) a numerical value equal to the length of name will be given, but the cards allocated will be revealed, for example: 5, 6 - 5 Spades would be revealed at the start of the game as Jimmy Carter - 5 Spades. Good Luck!

Remember Tony Blair and Labour had Things Can Only Get Better as their theme for the 97 election? Well, with rumours of the Tories being predicted to be reduced to a minimal number of seats and Sunak heading for California, I thought Sunak could have this appropriate election campaign choon.

Boo-ed in Bury. Sunak hands out ice creams to the Tory journos. Bypassing some kids who were present. He promises Harry Cole ice cream, he promises those kids National Service.

Well, you are assuming it's just prison, guards and prisoners. The show was a little wider than that - obviously there are the escape efforts, new arrivals, associated people of the town and the ultimate liberation of the camp.

Report of the death of Al Barnett (aka Alan Barnett), costume designer on the entire second series of Colditz, aged 92: http://www.ex-bbc.net/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1716979271 Other notable costume roles include Survivors, Juliet Bravo, Howard's Way and....Boys From The Blackstuff. He was also a costume assistant on Braveheart.

Right I have seen some chatter on here about what constitutes a Portillo moment. For me, it's the look of astonishment on a challenger's face at winning (Stephen Twigg), and the brave petted lip of a sitting MP who has just had their balls cut off and handed to them as second prize (Portillo). There will be Portillo moments of different shades - remember Anna Soubry just hanging on and in absolute tears at the slashing of her majority? Feel free to enjoy those at your leisure. But that's not the point of this game. It is to pick a name (no uniques - spoils can be shared) of a sitting MP who will lose their seat by the largest margin on election night. Wooden spoon is traditionally awarded to the person who names the MP who retains their seat with the largest majority. Entries will open say 8th June - we should know all the candidates by then. You can have 2 or 3 picks, the danger being you might end up with a dishonourable mention or even the spoon the more you pick. Entries will close at 01:00 hours BST on election day - July 4th. You can still enjoy general chit chat about it, otherwise.

I've just seen Ed Davey in a chef's hat making a cake. I think the truth is out. He's not really running a campaign, he's having a staycation! But I do note he's probably the only one talking about what directly impacts on voters. Can't forget coalition though. So he's onto a winner, Tory voters can vote for him, because they got the Tories with him in 2010! I say enjoy your summer holidays Ed! Then once the election is over, enjoy your summer holidays Ed!
-
Good long life and a legacy carried on. He will rest well now his work is done. Condolences on your loss.
