Summer in Transylvania 1,954 Posted January 8 Erwin Schild, perennial Arghton pick and one of just two names to have been selected in every round thus far, is the third hit of the game, bringing us one step closer to a winner being crowned. Please let me know if I have missed any hits. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Summer in Transylvania 1,954 Posted June 19 Willie Mays, noted American baseball player and this round the pick of Tracy, has succumbed to heart failure aged 93, giving us hit number 6 and bringing the game just two steps from completion. His death also is the thirteenth since this round began in November of someone played in any round, almost equalising the board 6-7 ahead of Chomsky's, who was selected in both previous rounds, probable demise. Please let me know if I have missed any hits. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Daredevil 1,162 Posted August 18 Delon was born on 8th November. He died aged 88 on the 18th of the 8th month of the year. Now, Delon is number eight. If he was on my Shadowlist (he so nearly was), he would have been my 8th hit too! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I will always be a great Delon fan (think of all those times I have mentioned him on the forum), I feel it is quite fitting for me to have this win.

Summer in Transylvania 1,954 Posted August 18 One thing that I find curious is that all three winning picks of this pool so far, despite the broad range of names eligible for selection, have been DL-worthy, two of them having been selected by the committee.
