As for Wujick, I'd say his UK obit chances are quite slim

I expect his obituary coverage to be a lesson to myself. I think in mid December we all go through some frenzy of unlimited possibilities and since I knew Wujcik wasn't going to be alive by the end of the year, I took a gamble.

 

It's a shame I didn't spot Yo-Sam Choi instead.

 

Considering Wujick hasn't got a full obituary full-stop in ANY press outlet, it's looking pretty slim already for a UK obit.

 

Banshees, if I recall correctly, wasn't Wujick a last minute rethink by yourself?

Cooksey is my fault that passed me by. I only had a couple of hours sleep last night so I'll update tomorrow, thanks for pointing it out.

[maryportfuncity 10,657]

Chill guys, the above brace of blinking stiffs are now added to the deceased of the master list. I too, had little sleep as the Marycopter hurled itself north after the Neil Young gig.

And I've updated the site

[maryportfuncity 10,657]

Snow's added, does nowt to the top two mind, since we both had him.

[Handrejka 1,904]

Site updated for Snow.

[maryportfuncity 10,657]

Taken the liberty of adding Pancreatic Pausch on the basis of reports starting to emerge, by the time it's official I might well be on my hols. I'll add more skulls as required in a fortnight.

Drug smuggling judge murderer, Jameal "Jimmy" Chagra, has died of cancer aged 63. UK obit.

The Unknown Man, have you ever thought of taking the plunge and actually joining DL? You'd still be the unknown man and you could have a nicely mysterious avatar. And you could vote in polls.

MPFC, you forgot to add a skull to Dr Sheela Basrur.

[maryportfuncity 10,657]

Sorted now, keen competition for such a small deadpool eh?

[Handrejka 1,904]

Sorry for delay, should be up to date now. Also just to let you know once this finishes I'll be taking a break from it until Jan 2010

[maryportfuncity 10,657]

Stunning, not one of us had Paul Newman. I logged in to update the list and find it hard to believe we all missed out, but we did.

I think it was much like Sydney Pollack with last year's CPDP; at the time of the competition, everything was just tabloid rumours. Whereas by the time the next competition came around, you had to have been a pretty strong optimist to believe that they were false.

The PoolOfDeath needs to be updated for Eddie Thompson and Levi Stubbs.

Sorted, we're fast approaching twenty stiffs. Might be low number of entries by - by heck - those competing can pick some winners, eh?
