    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    I've got him on the Not the List of the Missed theme team.

    Peter Sarstedt

    Lol. Sir Creep drops him from his DDP team and he dies. Sod's law. Just as well there's no one on this forum who pinpointed his death to 2017, then didn't put him in any of their teams. He's on my Advent Avalanche team, which is just a test to see who will die who got selected from the Advent Avalanche, so he's on one DDP team at least. I was more bemoaning my unerring ability to go "they're one for next year" and then watch them snuff it having forgotten to add them to my team. (Sarstedt was 1st sub for my 2nd XX.) It's been a long running talent of mine. Oh, and that bloody song is stuck in my head again - bloody Sarstedt. RIP too, I guess.

    Rolf Harris

    I was a big fan of Rolf as a kid - animal hospital, the art shows, etc. But meh, who cares, it was much worse for the actual victims, I say. Savile on the other hand always came across as a bit creepy.

    Deathrace 2017

    Well, the bad news for my chances is that Ricky Murderer Chap is still facing the death penalty in 9 days. The good news is that it's the England national team taking the penalty. Sorry, couldn't resist an old joke.

    What Ever Happened To?????????

    Option 1: He died. Option 2: He has real life issues which prevent him posting on here, or having the time to check up on everyone. He traveled between Holland and Scotland for work in the past, so he could have needed to travel out elsewhere at short notice. Option 3: An unexpected issue took him away from the forum, like the death of a parent, child, or he really loved Cruyff and lost the deadpooling heart after that. Option 4: He had a barney with other admin/mods and sodded off/was told to sod off, and Paul/Grim/whoever is quite pissed no one has taken their side in the better part of a year over it.

    Hospitalised!

    True enough. Still, at least Spade and the other usual suspects didn't go for her either.

    Hospitalised!

    FFS Didn't even shortlist her, thought longer term case. Still might be, of course.

    Bob Barker

    Overrated "comic" actor.

    Oh I forgot he was in Happy Gilmore. You're right, that is a really good film, even with Adam Sandler in it.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Got my confirmation. Awesome, thanks. After the 2011 debacle I always double check I send the things to the right email, and then worry about it like a neurotic... Aye, though I can't be the only person viewing the quiet first week of 2017 with suspicion. 2016 - bar a few ambulance chasing DDP points - started with a quiet first week or so in terms of notable deaths and then...chaos.

    No problems, glad you liked it. So tempted to put this on my writer's CV...

    Inverse Dead Pool 2017

    Probably not. If anything, I guess there would be more non dead certs due to the increase of teams. Yes, a lot of us have a bunch of dead certs on our team, but remember, we only make up like 5% of the teams. And most people would be choosing more household names. So more Kirk Douglas and less Joey Feek if you know what I mean. Cough Joey Feek cough I do agree with your general point, but I do find it interesting what terminal cases break into the more general conscience, as it were.

    Gerald Sinstadt, that's another who vanished, but apparently he does a weekly column in The Sentinel. Err, presumably not about cinemas...

    What Ever Happened To?????????

    Christopher Brocklebank-Fowler was once notable by MP standards - only Tory to jump ship to the SDP in the early 80s - but like many ex-MPs, fallen right out of the spotlight. I was going to say Des O'Connor, but apparently he's touring. GLITZ: Where as yours is a simple case of sociopathy, Dibber, my malaise is much more complex. A deep-rooted maladjustment, my psychiatrist said. Brought on by an infantile inability to come to terms with the more pertinent, concrete aspects of life. DIBBER: That sounds more like an insult than a diagnosis, Mister Glitz. GLITZ: You're right there, my lad. Mind you, I had just attempted to kill him.

    Dambusters

    My own great-grandfather won medals in the First World War, but no one's ever heard of him because he died in the 1940s when there was millions of them walking about.

    Next Music Shock Death!

    I've heard several reports of Cliff's back-stage antics over the years. Nothing actually illegal, at least under today's laws, mind, but he's not as squeaky clean as he's made out to be. I have zero respect for him. "Celibate", my arse. Er .... Well, that's blatantly part of the whole being in the closet thing.

    The Hartlepool Deadlypool

    My top two dead by January 7th. (Well, Soares, and Alvarez who wound up being subbed out, but it still sort of counts!) I apologise for being far more competent at this than I usually am, it'll be down to the usual bottom of the pack before too long.

    Ah I do like the Inverse Deadpool.

    He'll still be on about a dozen teams at least due to a certain side having him in 2015.

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    While I'm happy that I'm about to get my first hit, I'm also kind of sad as well. It's a shame someone like him is going to die at such a young age. To be brutally honest he's done brilliantly well to get this far. Two years this month, he was given 18 months as the upper most limit, and nearly everyone in the first clinic with the same illness spread were dead within six months tops.
  24. I suspect you're not the only person.

    Mario was my joker iirc. So half way there now if my maths is anywhere near right.
