The use of the replacement period was surprisingly rare. Anyway, the masterlist on the first page is updated. Georg Ratzinger has already become a hit since then. And there was Carl Reiner. Bernardino Pinera is probably a lost cause for an obit. Rank Team Points 1 Death Impends 771 2 gcreptile 661 3 RadGuy 626 4 Banana 608 5 msc 605 6 Cpt.

Exciting times..... ... I briefly thought about picking Jeffrey Epstein for last year's 5-4-3-2-1 pool in the month he actually died. It was just too obvious. They can't let her live, can they?

So they tried to wake up Derek Draper from coma, but he remains unconscious: https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/kate-garraway-leaning-pal-myleene-22288389 What kind of state is this?

Minimalists (and other classical composers/musicians)

Ah sad, every newspaper of note will give her an obit. -
I don't think I ever had such a high "has a wikipedia page" quota. Only Tim Bilton on my team has none. There just wasn't a lot around in the fringey department. @YoungWillz: My pick Stanley Crouch is not a convict, but a critic.
-
Yes! The subs are in effect (if posted) since July 1st, 00:01 so to say.
-
We're a bit unlucky this year with a few non-picks, i.e. Ratzinger, or John Prine. It's getting more likely that we miss the hit record, again.
-
Ratzinger already a substitution hit. Obviously, if you still pick your replacements today, those already dead today can't be picked.
-
I thought he didn't look THAT close to death, so it had to be something more than general weakness, i.e. cancer. Let's see. I can't check german sources right now, but maybe later.

The Corona layoff wave is now fully underway. Airbus decided to lay off 15.000 people yesterday... I also find it interesting how economic crises reveal frauds - Enron after the dot.com bubble, Bernie Madoff after the Financial Crisis, now Wirecard.
-
Unless they're also "Slovenia's Elvis Presley" or something like that - it's relatively unlikely.
-
For some reason, I had a feeling it would be over quickly.
-
RIP... makes me wonder how Mel Brooks deals with it.
-
Lol... if Carl Reiner died before Johnny Mandel then I technically had a 2nd unique hit.... so I didn't fail quite as much as the official scoreboard suggests.
-
Congratulations Rover!
-
Heh, well I see that the original intent to allow replacements only on replacement day is unenforceable. There were already problems last year. Well, I guess I will just go with it. The replacements will only come into play with the month of July though. You can still wait until 1st of July to replace though.
-
Replacement day is the 1st of July. Up to 5 names. Either pm me or post here!
-
Ugghh... thanks Joey for reminding me. Today was a stressful work day... I promised to post my two replacements publicly today, so here they are: Out: Mark Allen Kerri Parker In: Alex Zanardi Derek Draper

Yoo Sang-Chul can do outdoor activities again but is not yet cancer-free: https://m-en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN20200629004600315

Songs that would never be made today?

Sounds like the song almost didn't get made back then.. -

So in 1980, Benny Mardones was 33 years old and the girl was 16: -
Well.... neither did Benny Mardones.
-
Team submitted... good luck everyone! I guess, except for about 4 names, my team is relatively predictable.

Marian Cisovsky's day of death was ill-chosen. Too many football decisions elsewhere - all the pent-up games of the Corona break. I wonder if he's the second obit victim after Ed Genson.
