I was just waiting for an opportunity to drop that line...

Anyone think 20 hits no problem can actually get 20 hits? I don't know, Clegg and Ricksen are by no means certs in any way, plus old people can linger for a while...

No, beyond those 2, I don't think Rev Billy G, Redstone, Francis or Alcock are certs to go either and could all be alive in 2019.

Which forum reader is "20 hits - no problem"? :). He/She read one of my posts.

 

Do you mean the "I think I found my first sub" post?

@Spade_Cooley forgot to tell you what an awesome job you're doing. It's certainly a full-time job unto itself.

I appreciate you correcting the entry for Nick Clifford. For bio purposes, he was born 5th July 1921 in Pierre, South Dakota.

Are you still processing scores? Cause I don't like to still be at zero with a score.

Banana's Peel Slippers is another forum reader, maybe one of the disappeared? (other comments will be edited into this post).

 

Diana Rots now reborn as Nicked, but not dead. Well, glad to see people picking Andrew Fairlie. A classy pick.

 

Need to check on People who I think might die in 2018 united.

Also Sovereign Reaper, Dead Ends, Dead Wait, Bucket of Blood. Wormer! Marmalard, etc..., ZsaZsa etc...

I think this is him (he made a post in the thread before).

Funnily enough, they had Thuy Thanh Truong on their masterlist, though I knew about her case long before that...

Eric Sun also has been dead before New Years day, and I mentioned that fact beforehand...

Yes, i think I was the only mug who picked him.

cheers

I’m laughing at the team names The Right To Die (just look at the team) and Sex Ed On How To Ruin Your Career. Those are some golden names right there...

There seems to be more Weinstein inspired theme teams than even expenses teams from back in the day.

FWIW, Laura Bush's mum Jenna Welch, a Details to Follow name, already has an existing bio under Jenna Hawkins. Picked by the same team this year and last so definitely the same one. http://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2017/celebs_H.html#hawkij

 

I remember writing her bio back in 2016, where she was listed under W as Jenna Hawkins Welch. Now I see why her bio page has leaped around, she was first picked way back in 2006 (as Jenna Hawkins) but it hadn't been twigged in 2016 she was picked before.

Oh how utterly petty of you to bring that up. If she's a bio who gives of a fuck. Have you nothing better to do with your miserable little life than comb the pages of ancient DDP pages? Fucking hell, jesus wept at the sad pathetic incompetent loneliness you must feel! Wanker.

Ah, Cpt. Chorizo's annual cancer mum is Julie Shaw this time. Would have been on Shameless 3.0.

 

In my calculations I had Noel Conway, paradoxically both with a low chance of being a unique hit, and a low chance of making the Drop 40. A bit silly....

My expected scores are now above 160 for the top. I think new score records are up this year.

Bradford Dillman got his Guardian obit.

 

Woop. Woop. Woop.

 

Somebody nobody in the UK with actual life to live and time on their fucking hands has ever fucking heard of got an obit in a national newspaper on a fucking spurious claim to fame, from many years ago. All the sad low-life vultures on the DDP these days can scurry there little party popper collection and have at it like the truly sad, pathetic bastards that they are. Woop. Woop. Fucking Whoop.
