Congrats WEP!

Congrats Daredevil! Well played. I'm pleasantly surprised with my 4th place. Didn't expect to rank that high, seeing as I only managed to predict three newcomers correctly and had just MacGowan on correct place.

Congrats MariNisia! Well played.

Bit of a boring Top 10. I like that they brought Woodward, Nelson, Nolan and Ono back. Harris, Sakamoto and Rollins are decent additions. I'm surprised Roberta Flack wasn't included. Whale, Kaczynski and Hurd are risky drops, I also think Attenborough should've been kept. Pleased they dropped Akihito, but Cheney making it again is a bit baffling.

The drops: David Attenborough Emperor Akihito Ted Kaczynski James Whale Denis Law Noam Chomsky David Crosby Michael Gambon Douglas Hurd Silvio Berlusconi Linda Ronstadt

Might as well post this here, too: Henry Kissinger Bob Barker Jimmy Carter Rolf Harris Jacques Delors Tony Bennett James Watson Joanne Woodward Giorgio Napolitano Bobby Charlton Yoko Ono Rosalynn Carter Dick Van Dyke Alan Greenspan Harry Belafonte Jean-Marie Le Pen Burt Bacharach Patricia Routledge Roberta Flack King Constantine II of Greece Mel Brooks Norman Tebbit Gianluca Vialli Martti Ahtisaari Ryuichi Sakamoto Willie Nelson Mohamed Al-Fayed James Earl Jones Fay Weldon David Attenborough Prunella Scales Buzz Aldrin Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Noam Chomsky Pope Francis Ted Turner Don King Sandra Day O’Connor Douglas Hurd Ozzy Osbourne Bob Newhart Imelda Marcos Liza Minnelli Marianne Faithfull Roy Clarke General Pervez Musharraf Ted Kaczynski Jean Marsh Tina Turner Steve Halliwell

Yeah, 14/50 is a decent score and the list had several big name hits.

Pelé and Barbara Walters were hits #22 and #23, meaning the record is now broken.

Come on Benedict, just a couple of more days.

Congrats Arghton!

Congrats Summer!

Congrats Biblio!

Already edited to 7th, though I'm not sure if I got there before Clarence. Oh well, 10th December then.

5th December, same date as Dole, Mandela and King Michael. Edit: Scratch that, ninja'd by Summer in Transylvania. I'll take 7th December then. 10 December.

Napolitano again
