Nah, Gazza and Ronnie Wood are easily worse picks than Mitchell. She's not that bad of a bet tbh.

From what I read on Masekela, he's still doing alright at the moment. But I think a turn for the worse is plausible...

YES!!!! YOU'RE BACK!!!

I had Cryne, and my initials aren't by his names. Although I do like to see I took a unique name away from Death Impends.

Just realized I made a similar decision with Al-Baghdadi this year. Oh well, c'est la vie. Failure #2, here I come...

I think they'll probably break double digits, cause there are still a fair few certs on the list. But I can't see them breaking the record this year.

No Nobby and Chirac not returning. While it's certainly an interesting list, I doubt it'll break 17 hits this year.

Interesting addition for sure. Certainly has been somewhat ill for sure.

It's up!

Considering the three celebrities that are mentioned on the url are already dead, nope.

And Anna Holmlund.

I actually tried going into other chats. I think it might have to do with the computer itself, which I have no control to change instead of not being able to log in, which means I can't view any chats on Xat.

I tried it out. No dice unfortunately.

*David Bowie cues in*

Oh, if you're accepting entries now, I'm in.

@Death Impends Do you have an update on the Xat situation?

Well, I’m certain that there will be at least 1 person under the age of 100, as they’ve done so every year...

With Death Impends saying that he knows who a few of the new debutants are, it’s probably a good idea to lock this thread now, as any new suggestions are going to be useless.

Not at all, in fact, the vast majority of the picks aren’t unique.

I know, but I didn't count that cause Castro, who only had 3 previous appearances in 2007, was number 1 then. That's why I started with 2008.

It happened since 2008. I originally thought it started in 2006, but I forgot that Castro (and he was nowhere close to having his huge 13 appearances then) was #1 in 2007, and he was thought to be very ill then. As for the list 2008: Charlton Heston (he's more alzheimer's, but I'm counting him) 2009: Ronnie Biggs 2010: Abdelbaset Al-Megrahi 2011: Ronnie Biggs 2012: Etta James 2013: Ronnie Biggs 2014: Wilko Johnson 2015: Zsa Zsa Gabor 2016: Martin Crowe 2017: Kirk Douglas So I also suspect it'll be a new terminally ill case, most likely Bracknell or McCain...

Surely you mean from January 1st 2018 to December 31st 2018.

Can I make a request for people who made their list public to put their list in a spoiler so those that don’t want to read it have to go through 2018 names? Just to make reading this page easier.

Mine has been sent as well.
