Vaagheid 141 Posted December 23, 2016 Don't call it off. I think many of us are waiting for Boxing Day for that to happen. Sorry, should have been clearer... I would only call it off if by the deadline of December 30th i wont have atleast 2 entries... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,076 Posted December 23, 2016 You'll be fine, probably Christmas Day/Boxing Day and I'll pm my entry as promised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,076 Posted December 26, 2016 Ok, so I have sent you 50 names (plus one sub if needed) which I predict will be on next year's Deathlist. To be honest, I think a podium finish might not happen - I'd be amazed if I even get the 21/50 I got last year. Hopefully several players will enter this game, my credibility as a pretty poor predictor was almost ruined by coming third last year! (Mind you, my entry here is just ahead of the current Deathlist in terms of hits - how'd that happen?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,483 Posted December 26, 2016 Entered a team for the hell of it. An automatic 7 point deduction will swiftly follow due to my long held faith in the Committee's ability to pick Robert Hardy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted December 27, 2016 I just like trying to guess who will be #1 and #50. I'd really like to say Glen Campbell but that's not the way the Committee thinks. So let's try this: 1. Reverand Billy Graham . . . 50. Ginger Baker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted December 30, 2016 I've submitted the first 50 names that came to my head. I can't remember who those people are, but if they're not on the DL next year, the committee ought to be ashamed. As long as I do better than Morbidkid then I'll be reasonably happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted January 1, 2017 Here's what I sent to Vaagheid earlier. Kirk Douglas Michael I of Romania Billy Graham Olivia de Havilland Herman Wouk Tony Booth Peter Sallis Vera Lynn Peter Carrington Clive James Queen Elizabeth II Prince Philip Jake Lamotta Glen Campbell Nobby Stiles Leslie Phillips Javier Perez de Cuellar Prunella Scales George Bush Senior Robert Mugabe I.M Pei Denis Norden Joost van der Westhuizen Doris Day Jimmy Snuka Valerie Harper Bruce Forsyth Queen Sirikit Fats Domino Henry Kissinger Chuck Berry Leah Bracknell June Brown Bill Maynard Gord Downie Juan Carlos I of Spain Cleo Laine Yoko Ono Mary Tyler Moore Gordon Banks Buzz Aldrin Gary Player John Noakes Bob Dole Judith Kerr Colin Meads Ian Brady Nicholas Parsons Betty White Paul Gascoigne I think that totals up to 175 points, but I may have miscalculated. I doubt that'll be a winning score, but it should be better than Morbidkid's score. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
