msc 17,740 Posted June 16, 2017 So, via Joey's post, the list distills into: Already Gone: 1. MTM 2. Joost 3. Rockefeller 4. Brady 5. Noakes 6. Sallis 7. Christie On the Clock (either terminally ill or so ill, news of death at any moment would not surprise*): 8. Liz Dawn 9. Jerry Lewis 10. Glen Campbell 11. Akihito 12. Ian St John 13. Bruce Forsyth 14. Nobby stiles 15. Gord Downie 16. Leah Bracknell 17. Tony Booth 18. King Michael of Romania (*Nor would they surviving into 2018, of course - vagaries of death...) 50/50rs - folk who could go this year or linger, but appear to be nearing the end: 19. Jill Gascoine (?) 20. George Bush Sr (?) 21. Gay Byrne (?) And the longterm Deathlist favourites, law of averages (and history) says two of these names will be pan breed by December 31st: 22. 2 of Kirk Douglas/Vera Lynn/Rev Billy G/Carrington/Philip/Norden/Olivia/Dole/lamotta/de Cuellar/Domino I think it'll average out to 13 or 14 out of 50. Now, watch Betty White keel over tomorrow while Booth and Downie soldier on to 2018! 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadpool 163 Posted June 19, 2017 Kirk Douglas: very old and frail, but sometimes I think he is inmortal... 70% chances he will die this year Billy Graham: mmm not so many updates about him... but he is very old... 50% Prince Phillip: Looks very frail.. from years ! and was hospitalized so many times a couple of years ago but still here! Undropable anyway... 75% Pierre Cardin: got a feeling about him 85% Stan Lee: too big to miss... just occasional health scare, he's doing fine... 20% Herman Wouk: Too old... got the feeling he is near to the end 90% Jimmy Carter: mmm old, frail and with cancer... but looks fine and still active... 60% Robert Mugabe: bad guys live longer... high chances he will see 2018... 20% Jake Lamotta: got a feeling he will not stay with us for longer 85% King Michael: still here?? Little chances to survive 2017... 90% Queen Elizabeth: still here :/ ... high chances to see 2018... 10%... for now on undroppable anyways George Bush Sr: with a lot of health issues, I think he can't make it to 31 december. 90% Bruce Forsyth: mmm very frail 75% Akihito: He must be a goner... but not this year... 15% Glen Campbell: He is a goner...2017 should be his year 90% Not sure about the others 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 8,624 Posted June 29, 2017 We are now running behind 2015. In 2008 the 10th death will be next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadpool 163 Posted July 10, 2017 So... it is one month of the last hit (the death of Errol Christie )... and half of the year it's gone as well... the question is... we are going to see another 7 hits in the next 6 months?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,119 Posted July 10, 2017 I'd say apart from Bob Dole, Betty White, the Queen and David Prowse, I can see death potential on the remaining survivors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 8,624 Posted July 12, 2017 Things seem to have gone awfully quiet. Not just on the list but on the other games. Will July be a dud month? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deadpool 163 Posted July 25, 2017 Got the feeling that we are going to have one hit (or two) in this week or in the following week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zsa Zsa's leg 749 Posted July 25, 2017 Looks like July is becoming the new April. Can't even find anybody to put down for the "Most significant death of each month". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mad Hatter 1,091 Posted July 25, 2017 Chester Bennington easily applies for that title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
