    Knights of the Realm

    Ok comments noted, at least it stirred up a bit of interest non brits allowed.

    Knights of the Realm

    Too many people have been given titles with little merit, the foreign ones have many designations and people have collected them a bit like olympic pins.

    Knights of the Realm

    Excellent. I've been doing a bit of research I think it will be limited to British. Final rules to be posted after Easter, until then a chance to do some research.

    Where Will The Next School Massacre Be?

    I voted USA, It should have been limited to States of America, stupid, suicidal, corrupt, homophobic, intolerant and Texas.

    I was going to see what interest there was and then give it a months research time, I am a busy man.

    I'm new to this but I would like to see a mix of political, entertainers, business, sports and forces represented. Jokers allowed, as many of them will be, a decent time for research and an order based result points scoring system 25 points down 25 to 1, joker double points. 25 persons (Knights and Dames) so as to be politically correct, five from each of the categories. This is a starting point any suggestions welcome.

    Donald J Trump

    In my opinion I think he needs to think before he speaks, he is a leader of a democracy not a dictator (although he does no seem to appreciate this currently) the levels of stress that he is currently creating will hit him eventually. You can not be a leader of a major power and lead direct policy by misspelt comments on twitter. He will be judged.

    Death And The Scrabble Deficit

    With my real name I have exceeded my scrabble surplus with a factor of 150%. But there again with only two names, not long or posh, the sixties had no internet or fifteen minute "celebrities" to generate such long names. We would not have heard of the deaths of half of the people that we do now, especially those of the old Eastern Bloc nations as we relied on newsprint.

    Death And The Scrabble Deficit

    Dmytro Grabovskyy, 31, Ukrainian bicycle racer, heart attack with a scrabble score of 38 an ex junior world champion. The only thing that I would add to this thread is that Scrabble tiles in different countries have different distributions and values.

    Deathlist Awards

    From earlier this year. A award that has not been mentioned as yet. As previously stated my HR department is impressed by certificates we even have nice paper for printing the online ones off perhaps this could be a possibility. And with such little effort you made Spade take time to look that up (had to read EVERY one of your posts to do so!). In my book, Charlotte just won the 'Bee-in-Bonnet' award. SC.

    Paul Gascoigne

    For his own good he needs to be locked up it is almost criminal that this child has not been taken into care. So many people have ignored his state but will come out of the woodwork when he falls. So much for a caring society.

    Curse Of The Eurovision

    So if we vote to leave Europe does this mean no more Eurovision. I do hope so however the definition of Europe seems to have become a bit too lax of late. Australia!!!!

    Delayed Death Reaction

    You've made eight posts in six years, two of which were about your hatred of BBC organizational politics. Are you Noel Edmonds? And with such little effort you made Spade take time to look that up (had to read EVERY one of your posts to do so!). In my book, Charlotte just won the 'Bee-in-Bonnet' award. SC Its Charlottes 'Controller' which suggests that the poster is, maybe, a 52 year old unemployed alcoholic ( sacked by the BBC ) whos wife/partner Charlotte is subject to house arrest, no friends allowed, no phone and has been forced to cut off contact with her worried family.Or summat. Though that surprisingly describes me to a tee.... I have to deny..... I have to...... Oh fuck it. It's me. SC So I was wondering if the Bee in a Bonnet award came with a certificate I have space on my wall by my desk , my HR department is impressed by certificates (handing out sweets and grey blindness). Perhaps it could be a monthly award like we used to have at one of my previous jobs, "Comment of the month". Such gems as "Some fxxxxxg Sherlock Holmes you turned out to be" and "That is why murder is a crime" came from this. Also from the idiot of the month until it was won outright, "These envelopes taste funny and don't stick well!" the self seal ones often don't .

    Delayed Death Reaction

    You've made eight posts in six years, two of which were about your hatred of BBC organizational politics. Are you Noel Edmonds? No, but I have great respect for Mr Blobby one of their more intellectual correspondents. Are you Robert Peston? That is an insult, I will happily ignore anything that Peston puts forward post his involvement in the banking meltdown several years ago. His father of course, a faller this year, deserves more respect. Peston in my opinion is just a pretentious gobby upstart.
