If Smith is unique, my final score is 28, but it's most certainly not a winning score. At least I guessed the exact position of one person correctly (Leslie Phillips)...

[YoungWillz 21,055]

Whilst the official result of this game has not been announced, Vic Damone is my first loss here.

[YoungWillz 21,055]

Billy Graham takes me to two hits here. Keeping up...

Congrats John Key for winning this.  

[Vaagheid 141]

Is someone willing to take this game over from me next year?

 

I just know next year is going to be an extra stressful year for me and i won't have the spare time too run this game.

 

So if someone wants to take it over for me, I would really apriciate it. (I will even give you the password for the mail-account)

Ah yes, but if the DL had followed my list, they'd have 4 hits already....

Same with mine, but easier said than done  My list (as seen in my signature) is in order from most likely to die to least likely to die, in my opinion - and #50 Grace Mugabe was more of a fun throw in because she has crazy eyes and I thought she might try and grab power. That's made me realise that it's not an exact science considering none of my top 10 have died yet (though if McCain and Bracknell don't die, I will be very surprised). 

[YoungWillz 21,055]

Jerry Maren's death takes me to 6 hits here.

 

YW - 6; DL - 5

[YoungWillz 21,055]

And I tie with DL on Carrington:

 

YW - 7; DL - 6

Same here.

But I thought I would be way ahead of the DL...

[YoungWillz 21,055]

Aretha Franklin's death means I take a two person lead over the DL!

 

YW - 8; DL - 6.

[YoungWillz 21,055]

And Stefan Karl's sad demise makes it a three person lead on the Committee. Astonished he wasn't picked.

 

YW - 9; DL - 6

Grim said fame issues.

 

Translation: he'd never heard of him.

Just now, msc said:

Well, even I had heard of him before the illness furore.

 

And once it was out there, difficult to refuse. Ah well, their list, my lead. (A three person lead over the Committee I've never had).

[Book 3,557]

Book 8 : DL 6

I hope I can expand the lead over the Committee!!!

 

Congrats, YW!

My shadowlist and this list are exactly the same, so I’m currently at ten.

If my shadow list would be my DL Prediction list, I would be at 12!

 

And if my 2 dead subs would count as one hit, then I would be at 9 DL Prediction hits, btw.
