alt obits guy 3,371 Posted January 12, 2023 I guess she just doesn't make the starting line for me, as I've already exhausted my three sub picks on Pele, Benedict XVI and the disallowed Natalie Fornasier. Maybe a first in Deadpool history? Certainly a dubious distinction, if so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe a first in Deadpool history? Certainly a dubious distinction, if so. It has happened before, starting with less that 20 players. But your combination of disqualified/dead after submission/dead off the radar, but before the game is up, is unique. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 13, 2023 The starting gate? What the hell date do you think the starting gate is/was? Now don’t come at Sir Creep, he would be happy to allow a sub at any time of the year if you discover a person was dead. However, that is NOT the way it’s been run; you get a day or two tops. I played with 19 two years ago in a very similar situation. SC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WEP 888 Posted January 14, 2023 I am not sure, which topic is for a pick from 2021, who died in 2022, but in some kind, she is a candidate for the List of the Missed, I think? https://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2021/celebs_T.html#telandk021 Kajsa Telander, Swedish author, has died back in November 2022. https://www.dn.se/familj/dodsannonser/#/CaseInline/817524?query=Kajsa Telander Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
