Steve 608 Posted Wednesday at 03:36 I thought the DDP total last year was 312? So if we are at hit 297 surely there are only 16 hits to go. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good job someone was paying attention! You are correct; I think I misread last year's total as 317. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 8,001 Posted 21 hours ago So yeah, you're not done with me as DDP co-host yet. No one offered to take up the mantle, but doing slimmer obits has made things considerably easier and pretty much "TMIB redux"-proofed the front page. In fact I don't think there will be any changes for next year, rule or personnel wise, outside of acknowledging that The Times is a .com website now rather than .co.uk. The DDP 2025 thread and launch will be coming over the weekend. 9 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Yahoo issue seems to have sorted itself out since those local Oklahoma papers and whatnot can't seem to be UK-ified anymore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
