Boxing champion Miguel De Oliveira is dead, as posted by drol. Next obit gamble for me.

 

Shortlist getting its annual gubbing so badly I'll be down to Linda Nolan and the Pope by January 1st.

Do the obits have to be in english here, because I could offer:

I'm pretty sure I've scored off a non-English MSN source if that's any consolation

Finally, Alan Igglesden is kind enough to add WS points to the totals of Cap'n Cho (4 pts at the A spot), and msc/gcreptile/theoldlady/Death Impends/MariNisia (5 pts each at the I spot).

 

@Wormfarmer... Alan Igglesden is a hit for @Banana at the I spot too.

Thanks to MariNisia for both following the obits and double checking my scoring accuracy.  She should be running this thing!

First up, media mogul Jana Bennett (5/4) gets the WS bonus for 2 folks at the B spot and 2 folks at the J spot. 

 

2 folks + 2 folks = 4 folks.

In my village... 2 plus 2 is always 4.

Why Jana Bennett is a duo?

5/4 or 4/3?

Because if first name and last name are independent... then Sarah Harding was a solo hit for @Great Uncle Bulgaria at the S spot and Terry Lubbock was a solo hit for @Banana at the T spot.

However, neither the one nor the other was what happened.

And my apologies if I'm wrong about this.
