    Nope. Only the Dead Cow, Death Impends and the ever advancing gcreptile.

    Dead Pop Stars

    Another profile of her cancer battle. Key info not mentioned before is that her cancer is now stage four, with tumors present in her lungs, liver, and lymph nodes... I think she's too fit to die any time soon, but she may well die around Christmas to become this year's Sadhana Shivdasani. Cancelling more gigs, this time due to pneumonia. At the risk of making one of the bigger understatements in Deathlist forum history, metastatic pancreatic cancer and pneumonia don't really mix that well... Dead, according to Rolling Stone. There's now some more action at the top, as Thomas Jefferson Survives had him (I'd be shocked if she doesn't get a QO)

    The Deathlist Christmas Special!

    you should have written down "a giant dildo" and seen where that would have taken you. Nothing would be funnier than a child wearing a giant lenis flopping side to side in a Christmas play. Clearly I can speak from experience that you have a massive cock. I'm no admin, but if I were you, I would recommend you to change that sentence. Just trying to help you there.

    The 2Nd Crowdsourced Deathlist (2017 Edition)

    Afterall nobody predicted Jackie Collins death on here I don't think and nor did many guess Cilla Black either I don't think. That was because she died unnaturally.

    The Hare's Death Pool

    Damn, elected by popular acclaim to caretaker! I'd say 1 December. Remember though that there's a lot of days until the end of 2016, which is snapping up celebs by the bucketload. Firstly a massive thanks to YDub for looking after while I was absent, far too efficiently as far as I'm concerned - (I mean daily updates ) but that's honestly not why I have returned. I'm going to apologise for passive aggressively throwing my toys out the pram, on reflection I might have overreacted a wee bit. Apparently Deathlist is a bit like Hotel California, you can check out but you can't leave. Secondly, the rules clearly state that the competition opens at 00:01 on the 1st December by default provided a game-runner exists and close at 2359 on December 31st - It's worth noting this gives you an extra day to submit entries compared to previous years. I will be running the 2017 competition and providing the end of year starts for 2016 on the 1st January (in a rare move for the Hares Death Pool I'm going to put a 100% guarantee on that efficiency coming to fruition*), and this has been agreed with YDub before being made public. *provided I still breathe, if not it seems you've appointed my successor... If anyone desperately wishes to send an early entry it will be treat as being entered on the 1st December, and will not be added to the master list until the 1st December at the earliest. The full rules are available in the first post of the thread - note for clarity, entries are accepted via PM (the encouraged but often neglected route to be frank, keep your DDP picks safe - although there's so many pools on here now the entire DDP are probably running a game and can see those picks anyway). Or for the serially lazy (shoutout to the serially lazy, you're great people) in the spoiler below: These rules were last updated on the 6th March and I can now clearly state they will not be updated for the remainder of this year and will not be changed during the 2017 competition in any way that effects the 2017 competition, the majority of updates were merely clarifications of unofficial rules that we're already being used. TL;DR: Thanks to YW but I'm back with my tairly firmly between my legs. I'll probably send my list at the beginning of opening time unlike other Deadpools.

    Leonard Cohen

    So he probably would've died in a year or so anyways.

    The Generation Game

    Who is John Smith? Don't know but I think he died.I'm sure I saw his obit on Wikipedia !I don't think he's dead. Looking at the year, I'm assuming it's the Welsh politician

    Have you found a QO for your two picks?As I said in another thread, Lupita Tovar got the daily mail obit: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-3935260/Mexican-film-actress-Lupita-Tovar-Dracula-dies-106.html

    Kanye West

    Kanye West didn't vote, but if he did, he would've vote Trump. There is another reason why I hate him now: http://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/celebrity/kanye-west-says-he-would-ve-voted-donald-trump-brands-n685741

    Please Let It Be... Paul McCartney

    Turns out Lennon wrote a bitter letter to McCartney after the band broke up: http://www.msn.com/en-us/music/news/read-john-lennon%E2%80%99s-bitter-letter-penned-to-paul-mccartney-after-beatles-split/ar-AAkkCAo?OCID=ansmsnnews11

    Leonard Cohen

    He was a unique pick on the DDP, does this open a regarding a possible unnatural death à la Cilla? Shit. That just makes it even sadder then

    We definitely know her life expectancy, but please don't say that this is the life expectancy for ALL albino buffalo.

    The 2Nd Crowdsourced Deathlist (2017 Edition)

    Norman Lloyd is in great shape but at 102 he could easily go next year.Liz Dawn I think is a must have for next year. Still think Leah Bracknell needs to be on next years list and Tony Booth. Tony Booth for sure but Leahs situation sadly sounds quite dire and tragic and I fear she may go before 2017 Another name that springs to mind is Ryan O'Neal. Other names to throw into the discussion - Norman Tebbit, Sumner Redstone, Michael Caine, Joan Plowright, Gerald Kaufman (Labour MP) Silvio berculusoni -former Italian pm but I'm sure I've spelt his name wrong! Jacques Chirac, Nicholas F Brady US Secretary of the Treasury under Reagan and Bush senior, Robert Wagner, Anne Douglas (actress Wife of Kirk Douglas) and Winnie Mandela Just to help jump start some discussion! Even if Leah Bracknell doesn't survive to 2017, someone ought to play her in the Advent Avalanche DP, I mean, she'll survive two weeks. And don't forget to discuss about Donald Trump Arr you think Trump is likely to be assassinated /killed sometime soon? I think a Halibut person might kill him if he pull through with his vetting policy. Only time will tell.

    Better to draft it on a Word doc and send me it when you're fully happy. When I turn it in, do I reserve the right to add a person who announces that they're in critical condition or so.

    The 2Nd Crowdsourced Deathlist (2017 Edition)

    Can I send you a draft with a few names on it and slowly expand until the full list is there.
