Qapik Attagutsiak has died. I see a Radio-Canada obituary for her in French https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/2036136/nunavut-deces-doyenne-qapik-attagutsiak?depuisRecherche=true the Hartlepool Deadlypool QO news sources list has the English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation but not its French-language service Radio-Canada. Both news sources share the same emblem. If I see the CBC QO tomorrow I'll post it here.

Charles T. Munger is a hit for me. [edited 20 hours later] as is Henry Kissinger I updated my December 25, 2022 post to reflect my 13th and 14th hits.

12/50 Ryuichi Sakamoto Rolf Harris Rosalynn Carter Tony Bennett Bob Barker Sir Bobby Charlton Frank Borman Ted Kaczynski Walter Mirisch Benjamin Ferencz Mangosuthu Buthelezi George Alagiah

Johnny Ruffo brings a bounty of points to over a dozen of us. Here's an obituary from abc.com.au

For the next, which may be either ultimate or penultimate update for 2023's Shadow Deathlist Competition: My #39 entry, Frank Borman, former NASA Astronaut, died November 7, 2023, reportedly. Obituaries from Bloomberg. MSN, Irish Times.

November 12

Following Dick Fosbury in "killed by Only Connect" phenomenon. Gambon was one of four acting Michaels on the Connecting Wall this week.

Mangosuthu Buthelezi updates my 2023 Shadowlist to 9/50 hits

Mangosuthu Buthelezi's no longer a bench warmer. Please put Shane MacGowan on my substitutes roster, thank you.

It took a few hours today, but a qualifying online obituary from The Independent, an allowed source for the Derby Dead Pool 2023 obituaries, for my unique Death By Numbers 2023 entry Peter C. Newman is published https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/ap-toronto-ontario-belleville-harpercollins-b2407580.html Peter C. Newman died 7 September 2023, aged 94. Birthdate is May 10, 1929

Thank you. I gnashed my teeth as I deliberately chose two supervocalic names aiming for that bonus, mused how I could have misparsed the bonus, and saw that "hit...all five vowels..." would have been more clear to me as "hits of five names [A,E,I,O,U]..." Hit is a verb, as used in the bonus description, but commonly it is also a singular noun on these forums.

My number one entry Bob Barker has come on down, or off, my list. Franz Beckenbauer to third substitute position please.

centenarian US jurist James L Buckley is my #20 list position. He should be replaced by my first sub, Frank Field, MP. New to the Substitutes Trio is the Zulu Prince, Mangosuthu Buthelezi
