    Hares Death Pool 2020

    The inaccurate DNS claim has caused me a great deal of mental distress and anguish. As consolation, I request a bonus of 100 points minimum.

    Deathlisters who are dead

    I'm sorry about your sister, 43 is no age. I guess for me it would be the whole deadpool competition aspect of the forum that would bother me. The off-topic threads are probably great support if you've developed long-lasting friendships here.

    Deathlisters who are dead

    There was this one new member from an Asian country whom I was told by Charon in 2016 that they might've died around that time. It was just specultion, though. Not certain. Glad to hear about Magere. Maybe there was death in his family and he got sad to the point of not even wanting to visit this morbid site. I can tell you right now that I would most likely stop deadpooling if any of my closest died + limit my visits here enormously.

    Hmm. You'd think he would move on to the afterlife by now, rather than still performing here among us mortals as a ghost... https://whisnews21.com/2016/06/19/slim-andrews-85-never-too-old-to-be-a-country-star/ Please double-check that the Slim Andrews I submitted is the musician born in 1931. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slim_Andrews Edit: You really think I'd be daft enough to believe that someone born in bloody 1906 was still alive in Dec 2019? https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0028852/

    Olivia De Havilland

    What if she's not really in need of a wheelchair but has a fondness of rebuses and want us to solve it? Let's see here...wheelchair... hmm...we'll cheer...I GOT IT. WE'LL CHEER WHEN OLIVIA TURNS 110 YEARS OLD. It's happening, boys and girls! Edited to add: Also, there are 4 pictures from that occasion. 110 divided by 4 = 27.5. She was 27 in 1943. One of the films she was in that year was Thank Your Lucky Stars. It was a cameo appearance. It's a good omen that the stars of the universe will bless Olivia in the future as well.

    Olivia De Havilland

    What about Ruby Muhammed in DL 07? Not only is Olivia among the oldest DeathList names ever, but she wasn't just thrown in there when she was 100+. She has been predicted to die by the committee for three consecutive decades now. Her survival is like a metaphorical fuck you to all those committee members. Who knows, maybe she's already outlived most of them, cuz let's face it, if you've been adult since since 1987, you're not exactly a youngster no more. I bet in the most recent years, the "committee" has been just Welshman and Paul Bearer at this point, lolol.

    Derby Dead Pool 2020

    Well, I wanted to fill the "glorified Beach Boys groupie" quota on my team, and John Stamos apparently stopped aging in the 19-freaking-80s so Foskett it is! Are there any recent health updates regarding him? Solo or not, if he survives 2020, then that's a wasted pick...

    Hares Death Pool 2020

    I think unique bonuses make more sense when there's a large amount of contestants. That wasn't the case in the first Hares Death Pool, so I don't think Deathray really considered it in the beginning. I mean, when you're like 10 participants, even Alex Trebek or George Alagiah could be a unique pick with some luck.

    RIP to him. Just to clarify, there are no bonus points for unique hits, right? My whole list is filled with obscure celebrities who are on very few people's radar, so I'm actually surprised that you managed to find out about his death so soon after the fact.

    Hard to say. I think that ABBA is a case of the whole being greater than the sum of its part, at least from a star quality perspective. What I mean by that is that ABBA doesn't have any members that are iconic to the point of their death being talked for days. A big deal, yes, but there are no Bonos or Mick Jaggers or Freddie Mercuries in the group. It's spread out very evenly in the quartet, even though the gals did most of the singing. Not to mention, the sequential order will have an impact. When the first one goes, it will be a greater deal than than when the second and third one does. The fourth one, however, will likely get the most attention of them all, for being the last surviving ABBA member. Circumstances also play a part: Their ages at the time of their deaths, cause of death, whether it was unexpected or not, etc.
