Next year is gonna be tough on this front. If all major candidates die (Prince Phil, Bob Dole, Henry Kissinger, Pierre Cardin, Dick Van Dyke, Leslie Phillips, Jimmy Carter, Desmond Tutu, Prunella Scales, Bob Barker, Betty White) then you will only reach 73 points.

Update to Bucket Kicker's stats: with 104 more days this year, and being 4 deaths short of a record 18, the required rate for a new record would now be a pretty average one death every 26 days.  (The rate so far this year having been one death every 19 days).  Imho, once you factor in winter mortality and the COVID effect, the odds on a new record have shifted to better than even.

 

Update to this with our 15th death: 62 days left in the year, average of one death every 20.7 days needed to get a new record. Seems unlikely, but winter ❄️ mortality plus second wave of COVID means probably not that unlikely.

 

Oh, and the "total years on Death List of those that have died in the year" record is now thoroughly broken with a full two winter months to go.

Just out of interest, what are all of the rank names someone can achieve in DL forum?

 

I know it starts:

 

Spammer - 1 post

Pointless ranter -3 posts

Morbid interest - 5

Hatchet man - 15

Sniper - 75

Shipman - 250

Executioner - 500

Assassin - 750

Post Twunt - 1000

I need to get a life - 1500

I REALLY need to get a life - 2000

I have no life - 2500

Twunt master - 3000

Uber Twunt - 4000

...

 

Is there a maximum rank or does it just keep going?

 

 

If there's a maximum nobody's ever told me, and - fuck knows - they might have had to!  Tbh I can't recall at what number of posts I became a Dedicated Cumbrian Corpse Hound, or Summat

 

But, I can't see them awarding that moniker to anyone else in reward for long-service and copious posting.

Am I right in my (30-second google) belief that Tanzania is the world's largest country that lacks a DDP hit?

Interesting! 

Wikipedia has a nice helpful list:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Tanzanians

 

They also count Freddie Mercury, by the way.

 

If I had to guess, Tanzania's status is going to change relatively soon.

Even checking for colonial babbies who were born there when it was called Zanzibar, no names come up. April Olrich, ballerina and character actress who died in 2014, wasn't a DDP pick, neither was Rob-Roy-actor-turned-Labour MP Andrew Faulds, who went in 2000.

Looking back I have a feeling 8000 = zombie

 

Can anyone confirm?

Of course there's already a topic for it. *sigh*

Statistics I've found that people, knowing my luck, already know:

  • The closest we've come to a full knock-out of the top 5 is in 2013, 2016 and 2020, with 4/5 deaths.
  • The largest "red rows" (consecutive listings all dying) were in 2017, with the deaths of the bottom 4, Joost van der Westhuisen, Mary Tyler Moore, Errol Christie and Ian Brady, as well as 2-5 dying this year.

 

Time for a bit of an expansion to this, albeit late.

  • A new "red row" record is once again from this year, 24-27 (Stiles, Mubarak, P-Orridge, Moss)
  • The longest time between two deaths is from 1990-1992, with 676 days between Jill Ireland and Jim Joel.
  • The longest time between two deaths in one year is 2011, with 153 days between Betty Ford and Harry Morgan.

Obviously, the last one could be wrong as we lost the 1988 deathlist.

1991 and 2011 were stand out poor years on this display. Will 2021 fail to meet expectations?

So, I was a bit bored, and was trying to think of ideas. Then something popped into my head. Why not make a list of names that were picked by the winning team of each year. Doesn’t matter if they died that year, lived, didn’t get a QO, or (in one case) die before ddp action but wasn’t known until afterwards. As long as they appear on the winning team as mentioned on the ddp site (so no Mark Crispin, for example), they’re fine. So the list goes as follows...

 

1. John Andretti 

2. Frankie Banali 

 

Kidding. You mean, I can’t have a little bit of fun every now and then? Ah well, he’s the actual list compiled then, from 2003 to 2020:

I wonder if anyone might make a theme team from the surviving members.

Added names from Reptile’s winning team to the list except Doleman and Kerslake (who already was on the list due to TJS). I guess I was half right on the names above I joked around that would make the list...

2003 champ Otis, You Want A Treat? still has three survivors with Menzies Campbell, Lee Starkey, and Norman Tebbit.
