Derby Dead Pool 2016

Also, child murderer Robert Black was on a team in 2012, might be for the list of the missed unless someone took a punt this year.

 

Ironically there will be a whole team of "Blacks" but no Robert...

A whole team of Blacks? You can't be Sirius.

 

 

I'm so sorry.

P sure Kitty Kallen was picked by someone here but surprisingly I can't find any UK obit for her yet (though her "Little Things Mean A Lot" was #1 on the UK singles chart, so surely should get her due eventually. But for now...)

Pierre Boulez

and cancer mums Kelly Morris and Sarah Jones for my theme team.

 

I haven't yet received a confirmation email, could be the time pressure you're under. But since I added an internet link to each of my cancer celebrities (because they are complete no-names and indistinguishable from a thousand other people except for their cancer), except for the more prominent ones like Kate Granger, it could be that my mail might have fallen into your spam folder. I guess there were about 16-17 internet links in that email. I have the confirmation that my email got sent though (on the 30th), and I've listed my three teams in this thread, albeit in 2016. Plus I posted the links to my cancer mum death notifications in this thread.

 

You should have got one, as I've sent it to everybody and have inputted your team...

Ah, no sorry, I didn't receive it as far as I can tell. I submitted three teams in that same mail. But your word is all I need!

Could it be that the confirmation e-mail is in your spam folder? I also thought I didn't get one and then found out it was filtered out as junk mail.

My word, you are a star TMIB! Right on the day expected. Good luck, hopefully I can start roundups now as and when the new deaths come in.

 

A whole load of new navigation for me. Here we go!!!!!

I can't help but notice six teams have Ed Drummond this year. Time for DDT to reveal his dastardly plan and revel in the greatest long con of all time?

Thank you TMIB, enjoy a well earned couple of days off!

 

Pleased to see I've managed to score with a unique pick for the seventh year in a row.

Three teams - Who? ; Poisoned Pens ; Dead and Dusted 3 have got 19 uniques each, surely a joint record at the least?

I notice that Cobble to Coffin have Geralnd Sim in their team. Didn't he die at the end of 2014?

Nice to see Golden Slumbers and Star Dust are still in the competition. Thought they might've tailed off given their forum silence...

 

EDIT: 2016 continues my tradition of two uniques a year, it seems, w/ Wicks and Wright. Would've been nice if Chocolate were unique, but I'll live (even if he doesn't...)

 

Speaking of uniques, from the ones I had last year Harry Beitzel seems to have become a cult pick like Ed Drummond. Ralph V. Whitworth has been picked as well, on a team where 19/20 of the names appeared on the last year's top three (there always is one like that!)
