gcreptile 10,964 Posted January 22, 2021 Yeah, I'm slowly getting back on track. One of these DDP hits needs a change of person in the database. I'll do it this weekend. I think we've had 3 hits, maybe more. I haven't checked, was Peter Swan picked? I think he was at one point. I'll check it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess this breaks the Claudio Abbado record of earliest alphabetical death in DDP history. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eesti 151 Posted January 22, 2021 Luton Shelton. I strongly considered him, but eventually I only had him in my 50 names shortlist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dying Probably 578 Posted January 27, 2021 Considering how little people have been dying recently, I'd be lucky to get 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,220 Posted January 27, 2021 In terms of quantity of hits it actually has been extremely high (already at 30+ hits with still a few days to go in January). It’s just in the big household names there hasn’t been that many so far. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,576 Posted January 28, 2021 I noticed that Albert Wilkinson and Rusty Goffe both got snubbed in the picks. Wilkinson is 83 this year. And yet Jake Gyllenhaal is a pick? Got to wonder why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yet Jake Gyllenhaal is a pick? Got to wonder why. Nobody picked Vic Seixas this year so he is probably fecked! David de Keyser, Laurie Johnson, Monty Norman all strike as potential misses too. As TMIB once put, we only pick 3000 of them a year... Although I do see Toast picked DG Hessayon who came up in forum conversation last year! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
