Joey Russ

This DDP has been so slow. January 3rd and only 8 DDP hits so far? Come on man, it should’ve been 12 at this point...

Guardian has him as dying today, so unless other info comes up about him he’s a 2021 death.

Just out of curiosity what is the difference between your pool and the crowdsource list? Cause from what I can tell it’s exactly the same thing

I said 16, so let’s see: Prince Philip Bob Dole Rush Limbaugh (Joker) Jimmy Carter Jacques Delors David Crosby Rosalyn Carter Harry Belafonte Bob Newhart Yoko Ono Linda Nolan Joanne Woodward Burt Bacharach Leon Spinks Frank Williams Captain Tom Moore

I saw a Facebook post that said he died today. Think we need to wait until we know an official date of death to know if he needs to be subbed or not.

Picked in the DDP in 2020, unfortunately that means he’s in no mans land...

Oh, that’s where that quote was.

Wait, that really happened 1819 years ago? Fuck I must be getting old now...

Right here's my list, which was no doubt helped by suggestions by over 40 other members over late November and December of this very to make this awesome list: Prince Philip Rush Limbaugh Bob Dole Jimmy Carter Pope Benedict Leslie Phillips Tom Parker Mikhail Gorbachev Leon Spinks Beverly Cleary James Whale Larry King Tom Smith Glynis Johns Linda Nolan Betty White Henry Kissinger Bob Barker Carlos Menem Yoko Ono Jimmy Greaves Dilip Kumar Captain Tom Moore Norman Lloyd Joanne Woodward Shannon Doherty Clarissa Eden Olivia Newton-John Rosalyn Carter David Gulpilil Murray Walker Sidney Poitier Jean Louis-Trintignant Sarah Harding Harry Belafonte George Alagiah Prunella Scales Barbara Walters Gerd Muller Monica Vitti June Spencer Dai Davies Angela Lansbury Queen Elizabeth Bill Turnbull Bob Newhart Eva Marie Saint Noam Chomsky Willie Nelson Imelda Marcos

Ah yes, I found you Necromicon Suh winner.

Also hopefully I got everyone who played last year an invite. There were a few other accounts that look to be there solely to pad the player count so hopefully I didn't overlook you by accident.

With that in mind, and with me being unsure if Skinny will come back onto the forums, I decided to make a pool up just for the deathlisters. Just a heads up though. If you want to get entered you are going to have to tell me your username because I made it invite only (just so I don't have to deal with a bunch of random nobodies trying to enter this pool). Those who played in last year's pool will receive an invite, so it's the new players that I would need their username in order to get an invite.

As expected, Mail Obit came

He got a Mail Obit anyways, so he’s fine regardless of whether that counts or not (which I believe it does count).

Multiple of us get to cash in our jokers with Floyd Little’s death on New Years Day

Jesus Christ that’s at least 5 DDP hits we know about now, and it’s only January 2nd...

Dropping McKevitt definitely looks stupid in hindsight (already 2 days into the year), but at least I do get points for Paul Westphal. Already shaping up to be quite the contest...

He’s a mail obit guaranteed, would be stunned if he didn’t get anything

Weirdly the Covid lockdown did seem to improve his span, but I still think he’s a good pick on the Deathlist

Already 2 days in Alt Obits and one of my dropped picks (Michael McKevitt) have already died. This is going well...

Well, there was a recent photo of Jimmy while he tried to get the vote out for the Georgia runoffs, and make of this what you will, but I don’t think he’s one for long:

Just a heads up for the future, I wouldn’t take Sir Creep’s rants too seriously.

Replacing Marian Cisovsky (NQO), Mark Naley (another NQO), Pat Smullen, and Doug Supernaw with Michael Caputo, Paul Cosford, Maria Farmer, and Miguel van Damme
