QAnons compiled list of dead celebrities/politicians/CEOs, as of July 27 2020
gcreptile replied to Rosemurray's topic in Dead Pools
Because of QAnon's circular logic? lol... -
Denounced for crimes against humanity, good to know for this or that deadpool: https://pendect.com/categories/politics/american/brazil/jair-bolsonaro-is-denounced-in-the-hague-for-genocide-and-crimes-against-humanity

Ah, my points for Kieran O'Connor are missing.
-
They could put Norman Lloyd on there. But it would be a little contrived.

This year seems to mark the end of a generation for the List. The committee has to come up with something new next year.
-
Well, going down the poll options, Bob Barker first caught my attention.
-
That was fast!
-
My buffer is used up. But if I count correctly, I'm still leading, tied with DI. Well, somewhere between RBG and Leon Spinks I will be getting an undesired differential "hit", I think. Edit: Its very crowded now in the 15-17 point range, with DI and me, The Quim Reaper, Newjack, drol, Joey, theoldcrem... the players at the top remain the same, but it's so much closer now.

Oh I bet the committee waited for Bob Barker to die - so that Regis could take his place - now he never will.

Biz Markie has been hospitalised for weeks now, probably because of complications arising from diabetes: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-8559749/Rapper-Biz-Markie-hospitalized-WEEKS-battling-illness.html

Sad... While I like the Buckingham period very much, the Green Era was always on my list still to check out. Maybe now is a good time.

Okay, so the 100pt barrier was broken wih David Hagen's death. I think we were faster before? On the other hand, we rarely had so many still contending teams at the top. My 7/8-point lead, for example, would still be overcome by Susan Bayh or Jana Bennett, the picks I am most afraid of dying (Joey would be ahead by 1, Rad would have the tiebreaker - me vs. DI...that would depend on the age tiebreaker). I still need another 10-pointer to get some comfortable distance - which is why Ady Barkan is now the most important person on my team. Although a Lee Kerslake / Tim Bilton combo would also be good for that - it's less likely though, and Tim Bilton looks like a dicey November/December death now.

Sorry! The Italian sources are more detailed, I guess. I didn't research much in the past week and was still on last week's info, like here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/53438302

I think he hasn't become conscious again since being out of intensive care. The brain is probably fucked, and so the rest of the body as well.
-
Heh.. Usually my last-minute changes only make things worse. My hardest decision was putting Pete Felton on. Again, seemingly a mistake. Though my last decision this time, if I recall correctly, was the Sultan of Oman. I wonder if I would have picked John Lewis, if he had announced his illness a day earlier... Anyway, David Hagen's death, about 8 months after news of him being in hospice, is eerily similar to Fernando Ricksen's timeline. Spade asked how long Ricksen lasted in hospice... it was 8 months.

Two painters have always stood out for me, Claude Monet with his waterlilies and Wassily Kandinsky: -
Mel Gibson was hospitalized with it in April: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/jul/24/mel-gibson-hospitalised-coronavirus- Maybe that explains the slow reveal of Hutton Gibson's death.
-
Well, I think his final decline will be rapid. But first, we'd need to see some articles of the "hospitalised after a fall" category. He bounced back from all the previous health setbacks, so he's still got some resistance and strength.

Melvin Theuma, Maltese crown witness in the murder case of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-53497739 Remember, Caruana Galizia was a journalist who revealed the mafia structures of the Maltese state, including international tax evasion. Then she got killed. Now crown witness Theuma is hospitalized for a suicide attempt (or is it "suicide")?

Last Rivonia trialist Andrew Mlangeni in hospital: https://www.timeslive.co.za/politics/2020-07-21-anc-veteran-andrew-mlangeni-95-in-hospital/ I guess there was a interesting poll option once, Civil Rights Big Six vs. Rivonia trialists.
