    I didn't pick him either - thought he'd shamble on for a bit yet. Sad. End of an era.

    The Deathlist Howto

    Have a browse through the threads in the Dead Pools section. Most of the deadpools have rules, scoring etc outlined in the first few posts on the thread. Most games start early in the year, but there are a few you can join at any point. Also keep an eye out for any new competitions.

    The Dead of 2018

    Doesn't matter if it's posted a bit later. My thinking is that people might want to read through the thread at a later date. Yes, there's Wiki, but nothing wrong with having an in-house one-stop shop. I don't understand why people are so eager to sneer. Fine to point out a duplication when it appears almost directly below the first announcement, but I really don't see the harm in deaths being recorded in all appropriate threads. Many people don't have the time or inclination to search out and read every single thread.

    The Dead of 2018

    But as I always point out, this is the Dead of (Year) thread, and it should serve as a useful reference source. Therefore ideally every death of note should be listed here, even when the deceased is mentioned in more specific threads.

    Derby Dead Pool 2018

    Really? I am currently here courtesy of Vodafone broadband without let or hindrance. It doesn't, however, allow me to view any images hosted on imgur.

    Strangely no mention of Peppa Pig's resemblance to a cock and ball sac.

    Suicidal Celebs

  11. This was it. It was on cassette (ask your parents, kids), hence I no longer have it. Used to play it in the car, no car CD players then, not in my old banger anyway. Ah, memories. https://www.discogs.com/Various-This-Are-Two-Tone/master/8415

    Suicidal Celebs

    Oh she has aristocratic connections, sure, but that's all going back such a long way that the genes will be massively watered down. The further you go back, the more you are likely to find that you are related to yourself
  13. Oh, that is a superb performance from Rhoda Dakar, but it's not something you want to hear twice! Traumatising. I used to have an album with that on, might have been a 2-Tone compilation.
  14. I think the point is that there seem to be more and more stupid snowflakes looking for imaginary offensiveness, and wanting to ban everything where their own perverse little minds find it. There was a thread on Mumsnet the other day: To wonder why this song is still ok to play on the radio Jealous Guy Written and performed by a man who admitted he was violent towards women. Just that really. She went on to say: I agree that lots of musicians will have committed crimes. That wasn't my point. It is that the song seems to be excusing domestic violence because it wasn't his fault, he was just jealous, poor guy, AND was written and performed by a man who admitted being violent to women. It's the combination iyswim. Not everyone agreed with her, but I didn't have the heart to read on.

    Name Shame?

    Didn't there used to be a thingy on people's profiles that you could click on to see their former names?

    Five4Three2One Deadpool - 2018

    You know the Derby Dead Pool isn't itself a source of obituaries? It has a clear list of acceptable obit sources which can be found on the rules and scoring page. Nothing wrong with using it as a template for a deadpool - others have much less stringent QO standards (eg Death Race). FYI here is the QO for Rayya Elias http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5238127/Eat-Pray-Love-author-mourns-death-partner.html
