The Dictionary Deadpool Each participant must pick a 10 letter word reasonably valid in the Oxford English Dictionary and then for each letter of the word choose a ‘celebrity’ who’s first or last name matches with the corresponding letter (similar to the ABC deadpool). If your chosen word includes the same letter more than once, please choose different ‘celebrities' for each. Example - Strawberry Simon Cowell Terry Gilliam Ryan Reynolds Alan Alda William Shatner Barlow, Thelma Ewards, Huw Roberts, Eric Roberts, Julia Yuri Oganessian Scoring - Each death will be scored based on the value of the letter in the English language Scrabble so in the example above Thelma Barlow would be worth 3 points as B is worth 3 in Scrabble. There's no difference in points whether first or last name is used, however Alliterative Names, such as Alan Alda, will score double points. Unique picks are worth an extra point. Unique & Alliterative picks are worth triple points. General Rules - Entries close at midday (BST) August 4th and must be sent by private message. Usual deadpooling rules apply (have to be reasonably famous, no death row picks etc…). Make sure to clarify who you’ve chosen if necessary or else the first google result will be used. No need to pick subs, if one of your picks dies in the next week I'll PM you to ask for a replacement. I’m not particularly fussed about obituaries just as long as there’s enough proof to say they’re dead (a wikipedia edit won’t cut it but a reputable tweet might). The game will last until either someone has all ten of their picks die or until one year after starting (August 4th 2024). This is my first time creating a deadpool so if anything is unclear or you have any questions feel free to ask!

I trust the former barrister more to stand up for my civil rights than the party that were actively campaigning to leave the ECtHR.

I've been really struggling to focus on anything today, I keep getting distracted thinking about all those innocent people who have spent the past week fearing for their own safety because enough isn't being done to stop these violent and hateful riots, I dread to think what it is going to take before the government decides enough is enough and finally takes necessary action. I'm not a patriotic man at the best of times, but events these past few days have made me more than ever ashamed to call myself British.

Now closed for entries. Expect the team list up later, I'm just waiting on a response from someone about their team.

Well it's officially been a year, and I am ready to crown a champion. CONGRATULATIONS @ladyfiona our winner with 29 points. 54 hits in total across all players, with Zvi Zamir being the highest scoring giving 20 points to ladyfiona and runner up @polar duck. The team with the most hits was @DDI, having 8 deaths out of his chosen 10. Thank you all for playing and very good luck in round 2.

Just over 24hrs until entries close, for anyone who is yet to submit and wants to a list of the already chosen words (not teams) can be found above.

To by honest I agree with you, it is kinda pointless. A few years ago they did a similar thing for one of the Season Collection boxsets, a short Doctor Who sketch that appeared on Jim'll Fix It had Jimmy Saville edited out of it, at that point just don't include the sketch on the DVD. Edit: However I can also see with Doctor Who being one the BBC's biggest shows, and a family show at that, why they might want to remove him. Still think it's unnecessary.

For clarification they're not permanently removing the episode, they've temporarily taken it down whilst they rerecord his lines with someone else. In regards to the Queens death and other news moments the statement about the Doctor Who episode said that they won't and can't change those things, there might just be more of an unwillingness to show it as time goes on.

Since the event has now actually happened here's a short clip of it I saw on Instagram early today. Q&A was 2 hours long, he sounds great, clearly has no issues with his memory and from the video is quite stable on his feet. Could very easily make 100, safe drop in my opinion.

I agree that almost all of this list could go any day now but the problem is most of them have been in that condition for a year or more, and have just kept going and going and going.... They're a resilient bunch and I genuinely could see most of them lasting even longer. None of them are in a Derek Draper situation where things have been drastically getting worse and worse before finally reaching a peak a week before death, a lot of their conditions have been stable (critically or not) or without update for months to years.

Personally I don't think it's been that bad in recent months, it was a bit worrying at the start of the year but my DDP team is doing well and I'm on track to beat my shadow list from last year (I'm only 1 behind with 5 months to go). I agree with what others have said about the 'official' list, in that it has just been unlucky with a lot overdue, and a couple of misses (e.g. William Russell, Shannen Doherty). But overall I wouldn't say it's been the best, but it could very easily be worse. I'd also reserve judgement in full until December.

Earlier this week I dreamt that whilst on a walk with my father, a traditional town crier came out of a bush and announced that King Charles was dead. My father and I rushed to a pub, that was full of shocked pensioners, to watch the news coverage. I then opened my phone to check what was happening on here, then I woke up.

Good riddance, I've been waiting for this day since I studied the Vietnam war at school, I actually had him on my longlist of potential DDP uniques for next year, but as long as the scum is dead that's all I care about. Convicted of more murders than the likes of Bundy or Dahmer and yet only got 3 months of house arrest thanks to Nixon.
