  1. last night I posted that he was deteroriating and there was no hope for his recovery.why was that post removed? are guests not welcome on the forum anymore?

     

    Yes, guests are still welcome. Was it a duplicate post? The same one that was posted on the 17th August per chance?


  2. Founder of Unification Church, Rev. Sun Myung Moon, 93, is being treated for pneumonia in South Korea. His family is at his side and he's pretty much on deathwatch.

     

    Damn - I was going to include him for 2013.

     

    But it ain't over until Adele....

     

    Guess shes singing away now.


  3. Watched a bit on Myra Hindley tonight on Ch5. I swear the announcer said "And now, after the death of Ian Bradey last week, we show the story of Myra Hindley"

     

    Did we all miss something?

    Nope. http://www.channel5....indley#comments thats what they said......but as they also have up a picture of Beverly Allitt instead of Hindley I think we can assume that is just the standard of CH5.....

     

    They apologised at the end of the programme telling us there was confusion over a news article. Oh well. I'll just watch horizon on bbc4 now.

  5. I assume you mean the 43 people were born and are alive and living in the U.K?

    I'm afraid not PB, only three are born and reside in the UK, Grace Jones and Ethel Lang are both 112 years old and Irene Pearce is 111 years old.

    Amelia England at 112 years old was born in the UK but now resides in the US.

    I included all 43 worldwide supercentenarians (born before the death of Quenn Vic) to give the thread longevity, but accept by defination that they are not Victorians in the truer sense, although we did rule two thirds of the world's land mass back then.

     

    Wow, Really? Only 43 people in the world are survivors of the Victorian era? I suppose thinking about it, that must be a correct (ish?) figure.


  6. OK, post 5000. Neil Armstrong dies. Deepest sympathies and My Apollo-gies go to his family. Buzz Aldrin released a statment which read "Well, I'm glad that bastard went first this time."

     

    I could make a joke about Neil Armstrong dying, but that's just one small step too far.

  7. http://www.guardian....afi-trial-libya

     

    The decision has been made to defy ICC demands and hold his trial in Libya.

     

    Bet they're building the gallows already.

     

    I put saif forward for this years deathlist but forgot to include him on my DDP d'oh . Still i think there is a more than 50% chance of him being executed next year rather than this year . But i don't think you can include people on death row on your DDP , though im not 100% sure on that.

     

    If I remember the DDP policy on death-row inmates correctly:

     

    -If you put the person on your team before the trial starts, and they are executed in the same day, you get points but no unnatural bonus points.

    -If the person is already sentenced to death, you can still put them on your team, but if they die by execution you get no points. Full points will be rewarded if they die of a disease/natural causes/suicide/murdered by other inmates.

     

    I forget the rules for if they're imprisoned, but not yet sentenced which is Gaddafi's case.

     

    Hopefully paul bearer can answer the last part about being imprisoned but not yet sentenced, before i put him on my list .

     

    Best person to check with would be The Man in Black as its his rules. Strictly speaking, IMO, Saif is in detention awaiting trial, so he can go on to any death list, (Hell, he may eventually be found innocent and freed). So, bearing that in mind, there should be no point deduction if he does go to trial and is excetuted.

     

    I hope all that made sense, but, as I said, TMiB would be the person to ask.
