Masterlist

Scoreboard and Dead-log

Note for early submissions: You can edit your list before 1st of January no problem. I will check and compile and put all the lists into the "ShadowList Table" on January 1st, so any edits in 2025 just let us know. All edits should be done in good faith, and no one has taken advantage of this leniency yet. Do you consider yourself a champion DeathLister who can do better than the DeathList Committee? Here are the rules & guidelines: Have a list of 50 celebrities chosen by yourself, for their likelihood to die in 2025. Include up to five subs. Submit your list neatly. A numbered list of correctly spelled names would be great. Extra details would only be needed if there's another celebrity with that name. Try not to include funny formatting as it makes pasting it more painful. Type your numbers rather than have them automatically formatted in gives me one less job Candidates must be famous enough that their death is confidently expected to be reported by any countries media I will usually provide a judgement call or ask for some opinions in the forum. We won't challenge names until after their death. Candidates cannot be famous solely for the fact they are likely to die imminently - this includes people famous only for their advanced age, or for being the oldest survivor of something. If you think your name doesn't apply to this, just have a convincing argument. Names on the scoreboard will only count AFTER you submit your list. If you submitted your list on the main Shadow Lists Forum or another similar forum late this may be taken into consideration. Late submissions and private messages to me are also considered Play, participate, and comment in good faith Don't be a dick Being reminded more than once of a rule may result in being sent to Siberia There's no deadline on submitting a list, posting your list here is preferred. No late submissions should be using information from 2025 that wasn't available to those who submitted their list in 2024 (good faith). (You can post your list on January 3rd and I couldn't give a heck - but if it includes someone whose cancer diagnosis was announced on January 2nd or who died on January 2nd, that might be brought into question) Private messages: Private message lists will be publicly posted on or after the 1st of January for transparency. If you send it through direct message, I and others running this pool may open and see your list before the 1st of January - this isn't to steal or borrow ideas, but to paste your list onto my own masterlist of entries. If this bothers you, then just delay sending it until the 1st of January, or just post your own list onto this forum publicly on the 1st of Jan. Things to keep in mind about any person you choose: Are they likely to obit in a major newspaper? Are they a well known celebrity? Do they have a Wikipedia page in any language (that clearly wasn't made just for DeathListing) You will not be asked to prove any of these when you post your list, but upon your candidates death you may need to meet some of these criteria. Scoring System: One Death = One Point All lists, comments, and discussions should be made in good faith, I will try and act in good faith as well. Please feel free to announce deaths, especially obscure ones! I pick up names of everyone who dies in the Derby Dead Pool through Who's Dead So Far so if they're already on there your message may be redundant I make mistakes and am human, but will keep a log of everything as I score it through commenting and on the first page. Please feel comfortable to point out any mistakes I make along the way Last year this tournament was kept alive by dimreaper and polar duck in both public posts and private messages, their understanding of the rules is pristine. Any post or amendment made by them is pretty official Happy DeathListing

Just been waiting for Jimmy Carter to die so that I don't get a million revisions

He's gonna be on the deathlist til the day he dies, whether he dies tomorrow or lives another 10 years. Pope Benedict was 85 (3 years younger than Francis) when he abdicated.

Now is the perfect time to check your scoreboard and the names on it - is the amount of the points matching up adding up? We can figure it out together if there's a discrepancy Feel free to private message if public humiliation might make you blush, but a public message means there can be more eyes on it to figure out the problem.

Thanks for letting us know - spelling names correctly is important or else they will be missed, a friendly reminder if you enter this (and other deathlist competitions) again But easily fixed when you remind us I see we already tracked you for Fujimori (also spelled incorrectly based on the most common english spelling) but in a revised version it got fixed back down from 9 to 8, but that's an easy fix. Apologies for that mistake - part of why I manually track the score changes so that mistakes can be identified and remedied Alberto Fujimori* theoldlady 8+1 Jane Godley theoldlady 9+1 Scoreboard gcreptile 21/50 Book 19/50 BuffaloPhil 17/50 Prophet 17/50 Max_bossetti 16/50 CaptainChorizo 16/50 The Immortal 16/50 Wannamaker 15/50 Philip 15/20 Nick 15/50 MariNisia 15/50 Thatcher 15/50 six feet blunder 14/50 jonnythegamemaster 14/50 Sean 13/50 Charles De Gaulle 13/50 St3ve 13/50 Torva Messor 12/50 Salmon Mousse 12/50 Steve 12/50 Markb4 12/50 polar duck 12/50 Ladyfiona 12/50 Diego 12/50 MrShadrak 12/50 Joltin Joe 11/50 Death Duke 11/50 Bibliogryphon 11/50 Heiheiheihei 11/50 LWCZ 11/50 DeathBecomesThem 11/50 John Key 10/50 ThereWillBeDeaths7 10/50 Etushispushingupdaisies 10/50 The Daredevil 10/50 Perhaps 10/50 LizLemon 10/50 theoldlady 10/50 Superstar 9/50 Imelda 9/50 TQR 9/50 dimreaper 9/50 Windsor 9/50 Brad252 9/50 livingbygrace 8/50 Grimgrass 8/50 The Old Crem 8/50 Hell 7/50 Zsa Zsa's leg 7/50 Earl 6/50 Redrumours 6/50 Arghton 5/50 Pop_Zeus 5/50 Main Deathlist 5/50 Morrisey 5/50 Tomtomtelekom 5/50 Trome 5/50 Johnnas 4/50 Khthonia 4/50 Gooseberry Crumble 2/50 Kissofdeath 1/50 Nasquacker 1/50
