Spade_Cooley 9,536 Posted June 30, 2015 So as the board's resident guinea, I'm always keen to check up on any potential DDP picks from the old country. I was doing a little googling for Pietro Ingrao, recently centenarianed Italian communist politician, and came across this site: http://dpseggi.altervista.org/DeathList/X2015.html Discuss. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadGuy 1,614 Posted June 30, 2015 Wow! That's suprising, actually. Reminds me of something. Me and some friends use a chatting website called xat. On xat, you can buy powers using xats and days. Powers are basically things that make your username colorful or give you extra smilies, xats are the currency, and days is how many days you can use your powers for (but they can also be used as a currency). Anyways, we found out about a rip-off website of xat where you can get powers for free, but it just wasn't the same... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,476 Posted June 30, 2015 Incredible. Christopher Lee is no longer here. True enough. Fair enough, "From blues to soul" as headline for BB King amuses. Seems a bit obsessed with old cardinals, so I'll assume this is Francis's private deadpool. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathray 2,940 Posted June 30, 2015 I wonder if the owner of the UK Deathlist or the original coder could sue them copyrighting their material? Slightly bizarre to seemingly take or list and bad it out with 50 cardinals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,330 Posted June 30, 2015 100 names is too many to memorize 50 is better .Way too many cardinals and obscure people as well as supercentenarians which in my view is lazy.If you want a Deathlist base it on fame not age.I think Winton is probably the oldest person alive who is famous enough for the Deathlist. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mad Hatter 1,092 Posted June 30, 2015 So there's an Italian death list wow also they have a fetish for old cardinals and they defiantly ripped off this site the design and the obituaries of people we had and they had are very similar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted June 30, 2015 Meh. They've been at it since 2011 and someone JUST found it. Nuf Ced. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoverAndOut 4,746 Posted June 30, 2015 Also notable that Wilko Johnson makes it into 22nd place on their list. Apparently they take a more fatalistic view of his all-clear prognosis. Or maybe they know something we don't. Alternatively, maybe news just travels very slowly to Italy and they're wondering why there haven't been any new albums from that Pavarotti fellow in a few years...

Death Impends 7,979 Posted July 1, 2015 I checked the rest of the website out and there's DDP entry pages too, rather unsurprisingly given the focus of the DeathLists this is the same person who entered the DDP theme team "The Pope" a couple of times which got a bunch of deaths but only one or two obits. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulh85 101 Posted July 1, 2015 not a fan of picking supercentarians, not famous are they? i suppose the only one who might qualify would be the oldest person in the world.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted July 1, 2015 not a fan of picking supercentarians, not famous are they? i suppose the only one who might qualify would be the oldest person in the world.. I think Supercentarians are I think ideal for the DDP where the scoring rules penalise you or the Deathrace where the lower the fruit is hanging the better. The main list should stick to really famous people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good gods, they're as ancient as the members of the Politburo in the days of Brezhnev. Average age is 91.93 years (or 91.67 if you ignore Emma Morano).

Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) So it looks like George Kennedy is not dead in Italy yet? http://dpseggi.altervista.org/DeathList/X2015.html That was a deathlist from 2015. He died in February 2016. You really should check these things before posting shit. (Troll) The curse of the turned page strikes again.
