Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted March 28, 2017 Ebony Banks, who would undoubtedly have been a popular pick for the Deathlist Cup had she made it another week, has died aged 18. BBC obituary based on her having one Facetime conversation with Beyonce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted March 28, 2017 Unsurprisingly, Ebony Banks is also the name of a porn star, so be glad you didn't make the mistake of researching her as a potential pick during your work lunch hour. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBC obituary based on her having one Facetime conversation with Beyonce. I saw the Beyoncé face cam thing while searching for potential picks for the Windy City Dead Pool, but didn't really bother cause there was another celebrity that was mentioned in news back in December who met a celebrity that I didn't been know there last name, let alone expect a mention from a QO when she dies (she was mentioned in the mail iirc). I forgot who it was now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,964 Posted April 8, 2017 I would guess the Sun/Mirror take a day or two to pick up the local stories, so the obit will come on Monday/Tuesday. The obit for the Cup is there. Bad miss on my part. Meanwhile, pick of the Love Boat Connie Johnson has decided to end all treatment.... tick tock... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4393098/Connie-Johnson-makes-decision-end-cancer-treatment.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,964 Posted April 19, 2017 That's incredible 18pts for Shameless (and probably the achievement of one of my goals in deadpooling for this year, being player of the month). Shameless is now at 78pts with 5 hits. A triple-digit score is in sight (on January 2nd I predictedca score of 105pts, see the DDP thread.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
