This one was more on me for not seeking out an opera thread. Do wish to say that though I may be new to the Deathlist, my online trail for obit postings goes back a good 18 years to Google Groups / deja news / usenet / whatever you want to call it. But, yes, must learn threads and continue to look in search engine to find most appropriate one for each obit. Got it.

Would seem to be a case of posting it in a relevant thread instead of in a more relevant thread. Had not previously come across the university presidents thread but will remember.

The litmus test is whether anyone else gets added to either the 'hits' list or the 'Strikeouts' list beforehand. Otherwise, do your best to remain patient and not think about it. Since Hulka took over the AO Deadpool, I've not noticed any discernible pattern in when hits are scored. I guess most frequently I've noticed he will do morning updates...sometimes wee hour of the morning updates (Eastern Time). I've not found a source better than the one you've listed here, but will refrain from saying anything else and let things play out. Best of luck.
