Again, Angela Lansbury.

The Queen tagged as dead doesn't look right somehow...

Sad. R.I.P.

Angela Lansbury

Angela Lansbury again.

Finally a hit

The game was never officially declared over. Players who stopped playing did so voluntarily. Others continued playing voluntarily. There are some games that players continue to play at random even though they are not accompanied by the host throughout, 40:40 or 50:50 for example.

I think you should end this round a month earlier than planned, i.e. on 31.08.2022 or 30.09.2022. Thus, there is a greater distance to the DDP, for which participants save their best choices. I can't decide between 10 or 20 picks right now; I think the "3 subs rule" is better than the current rule. I would give fewer extra points and rework the selection again as this is the most work and very confusing. There should be a concrete solution to the current round and a declared and official winner, because this game did not initially run as a test version but as a regular game. Note: If a host runs out of time to host their game (for whatever reason), another player can certainly take over. Just ask

Betty White would actually be the DL No. 1 for 2022 had she not died before then. So Dick Van Dyke just moved up.

I'm going through this to the bitter end

Oh, that was quick. https://dcgary.org/bishop-dale-melczek?_ga=2.215122519.1123925666.1661359898-1881817699.1661359898 Sinisa Mihajlovic in.

The internationally renowned German jazz musician Rolf Kühn is dead. The clarinetist died on August 18 at the age of 92 in Berlin. Kühn was considered one of the few internationally successful German jazz musicians and played in the USA in the 1950s with Benny Goodman, John Coltrane and Chick Corea, among others. https://www.zeit.de/kultur/musik/2022-08/rolf-kuehn-jazzmusiker-tot

I've never been a huge fan of his Hollywood blockbusters, but there's one movie that really hit me personally and emotionally when I watched it as a young guy in the mid-nineties: Die Konsequenz (The Consequence) (1977). The original version of the film was censored due to its perceived incendiary content (homosexuality, two men planning to live together, a kiss between them) in the first television broadcast on ARD and regional affiliate Bayerischer Rundfunk refused to relay the transmission signal. The film was very well received by the critics and received several awards, but once again conveyed the image that gay life cannot be happy, that society is not ready for it and that outside pressure is difficult to bear. That in turn made me very sad and I am grateful to have grown up in different times.

After Egidius Braun (16.03.2022) and Margot Eskens (29.07.2022), Rolf Eden (11.08.2022) seems to be my third contribution to this year's LOTL. Do you know which team has ever produced the most LOTL cases in one year?

Dead. https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/local/jeff-burton-co-host-of-the-rizzuto-show-st-louis-105-7-the-point-dies-of-cancer/63-5349ee6e-a57e-4e06-9a45-766be953801e Len Dawson enters the game.

Yes, that's a big one

At the moment I can only listen to Olivia, also the really bad trash from the 90s and 00s, I don't care

@Death Impends Thank you for a really great obituary for Olivia Newton-John, very dignified and kind of heartbreaking too. Reading the obituary while listening to her music gave me goosebumps as I am still a little saddened by her death. You hit the right words.

And the next hit for the Italian DL, which surpasses its entire previous year's result http://dpseggi.altervista.org/DeathList/X2022.html
