Either something is going to happen in the next day or two OR the bowel movement I was sensing was actually my own lucky good run last week in the Derby Dead Pool were 2 of my unique picks and joker picks in 2 of my teams died within days of each other. In other words I could have been sensing my own glorious bowel movement rather than the committees bowel movement! However I do think it is highly likely the committee is going to get very busy with toilet roll and the flush rather soon! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miranda lass 105 Posted May 31, 2021 I've noticed for a lot who die, they were on the deathlist every year until they died. At least mine is a reboot in the sense it includes nobody from the last 3 years. Okay, I admit it caused me to miss some hits i could have had by keeping them as ppl from previous years have died this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gooseberry Crumble 5,356 Posted June 6, 2021 @drol @Banana I think you can expect much more action and release in June... I don't think its going to be a quiet summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,356 Posted June 16, 2021 I am stating to sense another bowel movement like I did a few weeks ago. What I am unsure of is whether it means like it did a few weeks ago a raft of my derby deadpool picks particularly uniques are about to die eg Christina Crawford, Erin Pizzey, Johnny Gold, Ronnie Knight etc or whether we are about to have an 8th or even 9th hit on the official deathlist. But some significant activity is due before the end of the month of June that I am sensing for sure. A plop and splash in the toilet bowl of some kind and noteworthiness is semi imminent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,830 Posted June 24, 2021 56 minutes ago, Deathrace said: June feels very quiet so far. Kenneth Kaunda, Milkha Singh, Enrique Bolanos, Lucinda Riley, de Bono, Douglas Cramer, Benigno Aquino III, McAfee and some more quite famous people have died this month. Much more happening than in May. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's still a week to go and big hits have often occurred in the last days of the month but I also refer you to @arghton post which makes a good case for some of the names that have passed away in June making it arguably not a super quiet month.

Lists all those politicians, forgets to list Ned Beatty who was properly famous. I accept he might have been slightly better known worldwide than Damaris Hayman. McAfee is behind the "popular" antivirus computer software, which, like everything else in his life, is complete shit and useless. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,206 Posted June 25, 2021 May definitely had more notable deaths than Arghtons list with only a few I've heard of. But Kenny K is quite a famous name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,773 Posted July 27, 2021 A month after us all complaining that nobody’s dying… nobody is dying. Pretty bad year tbh. 5 months left. Can see there being 3 more DL hits max. Maybe a couple of “global household names” but the likes of Carter, Pope BVI, Gorbachev, Tutu, Chomsky etc will likely see 2022. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm keeping the faith but naturally respect your opinion. I definitely think the Derby Dead Pool ithough s going to end up with a phenomenally impressive total. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
