Rayya Elias dead. This is a People obit right now so there will probably be multiple Brit obits for her in a couple hours. Anyway, if she does get the requisite obit (if People and HuffPost aren't enough right now, anyway), shes a hit for multiple teams including mine (and a joker on my team!)

This is where my January deaths will be: Thomas S Monson, name 244. Rayya Elias, name 534. Asghar Khan, name 691. Jerry Van Dyke, name 653 Ray Thomas, name 291 Denise LaSalle, name 1754 David Fisher, name 422 (awaiting legit obit? only has doctor who blog obits) Bobby Zarin, name 464 Dan Gurney, name 385 Dolores O'Riordan, name 646 Laura Saull, name 461

Ah, didn't have Rayya but had Thomas S. Monson on my team. I was thinking of putting her but thought to put more oldies on my team

I've gotta admit, that was quite fast. R.I.P. Qualifying obits from Daily Mail will probably come within a couple of hours if I stand correct, although she does have a "mourning"-type obit from People.

I agree, his drawings are very neat and I've become a big fan of Delays, a band I may have or may not have heard of if it weren't for deadpooling.

People who like British soap operas

Yeah I guess so, didn't really know where else to put it (I guess internet celebs?) incase anyone wanted a gamble punt on one of the DP's that will be accepting entries soon like The Joker DP

Agreed, that was the funniest thing in the "article" imo.

I agree soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much

I personally think Logan Paul might be on suicide watch for the future, he's gotten himself into quite a controversy (go to "suicide video controversy" on the wiki article.) He's 22 btw. He also has a brother named Jake who was a big viral star on YouTube in 2017. Jake is 20.

Diagnosed with early onset alzheimers at age 56, sad case.

Yes #MeToo

LadBible mention ... " The site's choices are selected by users on the deathlist.net forum. To be honest, it's as surprising that people are still using forums in 2018 as the amount of effort they put into drawing up the list. " Also the comments are extremely stupid, especially this one: " I just had a gander and they don’t follow their own rules. 2018s list is basically the same as 2017s and 2016. So there’s people that’s been on there at least 3 times now. I didn’t bother to go any further back. It’s aload of crap. of course these people are going to pass soon, they’re all getting on. "

Cool I'll be entering this. Just to make sure, can we enter now? Thanks for bringing this back =)

We don't need a seperate topic for every obscurity you can find, this is why the Ideas and Possibilities for 2019 thread exists...

The only person that didn't get through on my OG list was Jackie Stallone, not really suprised I guess. Wolde-Giorgis replaced her.

I think Toto toured Africa once...

Maybe next year I'll go for the younger types. Wood, Ronnie (guitarist of Rolling Stones that isn't Keith Richards)

I've had 3 names die before 2018: Doreen Keogh Carmen Franco Rose Marie My first hit is with Thomas S Monson as well.

1920. Wayne Thiebaud, Clarissa Eden 1921. Aaron T. Beck, Alicia Alonso 1922. Stan Lee, Rachel Robinson 1923. Bob Barker, Glynis Johns 1924. George HW Bush, Joyce Randolph 1925: Dick Van Dyke, Barbara Bush 1926: James Lipton, Julie Adams 1927: Harry Belafonte, Rosalynn Carter 1928: Joe Jackson, Estelle Harris 1929: Bob Newhart, June Squibb replaced Monson with Poitier this time around edit of Jan 7th: I just realised Sean had sydney poitier but he hadn't entered this time around, however I wanna be fair and change it... I'll change him to Belafonte

Don't we all?

Well, I'd just like to say for '17s list who I have met because I don't think I said last year: Gord Downie. Met him in '15, the second last time I saw The Hip live (last time being during their last tour, of course) For this year, I'd probably say Olivia De Havilland or Betty White. Olivia seems pretty badass even now and Betty White seems pretty sweet and both are still kicking at ripe old ages!

Hey, maybe I could do a theme team of people who have worked with Glen Campbell with Hal in it sometime? -jots down in theme team ideas notes-

Oh, sorry I didn't understand that at first lol

Hey Deathray, apologies if this is a stupid question or not but... I had Doreen Keogh on my list and she died December 31st, 2017 but it seems the obits started coming in Jan 1st. Does that count as a hit or do I have to bring in yet another sub? Thanks alot.
