Do you put the most famous people in the top spots or your rank them by likelihood to die ? I list them by chronological birth date order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's good though imho to have plenty to choose from than not enough. Good luck though on your final selections but you will do fab I'm sure. Hopefully.. I guess I feel I have a good possibility that 2025 can only go up from 2024 considering I only got 8 hits this past year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have only been around here for a few years, so I can't be sure of this. Some of the older members may be able to confirm. I think the "committee" meets up in a pub on December 31st, and drunkenly scrawls down names on whatever they can find. At approximately 11.30pm they pick 50 of them, ranking them on how legible the names are on the beer-mats.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
