  2. As posted in the shadow list thread, I'll be away from home for a week or so to visit (some of) my partner's family. Looking forward to the time in Finland, I'm not sure if I'll be online/posting in the meantime. So I'd like to wish all of you a happy new year in advance, all the best to my fellow forum users :)

  6. Thanks for hosting this game again. I'll be participating for the second year in a row: this year's game has gone alright for me, sitting currently at #17. For 2024 I'll continue my own arbitrary rule from last year: no selections who were born in 1945 or before.

    Hi Diego, just a friendly note. Your post is in Portugese: this happens to be the native tongue of 230 million people worldwide, but won't get you very far on an English internet forum :)

    I know there are some here who'd sooner chew their own fingers off and then claw their eyes out with the bloody stumps than look at The Guardian website, but if you're not one of those, the Thursday quiz this week is on notable figures we've lost (sic) this year.

    Managed to get 9/15, with multiple ones I had to guess. Could've been 10 but tricked myself by overthinking the Charlton question.


  15. To add to the discussion, it's quite rare in modern times for the last living US secretary of an administration to be this well known. Mainly due to important government posts usually going to older / experienced folks.

     

    Johnson's last secretary Ramsey Clark was more well known for his career as an attorney. Meanwhile, last survivors Willard Wirtz (Kennedy) and William P. Rogers (Eisenhower) don't stand out for their work in their respective administrations.

    The 2013 Deathlist is now the fastest to become extinct (10 years).

    Out of the years after that, I'd say 2017 and 2019 could break this record. The 2020-2022 list possibly could as well but there's still a couple of names there I'm not confident about.
