Death Impends 7,975 Posted November 6, 2018 Only Hare's 2017 survivor I dropped because I thought he'd be a late 2017/early 2018 death. Instead makes it all the way to November '18, a funny game, deadpooling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted November 6, 2018 I dismissed Mack as not having a great chance at a QO -- which of course came across in minutes -- so I clearly haven't a handle on the type of person the UK publications are drawn to. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, but remember what happened when, barring a number of DDP shortlisters, the last 6 weeks of 2015 brought Jimmy Hill and William McIlvanney as the only massively notable deaths. 2016 came next. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greville Janner died the same weekend as Jimmy Hill. It rang a bell so I had to check it out. My work game in 2015 had no hits between 3rd August and 2nd October when Denis Healey died.

True. 2018 really wasn't the most "exciting" year. But then 2016 was hard to top, and 2017 was slow-burning but quite hard-hitting. It had to happen eventually.

drol 11,946 Posted November 11, 2018 Ok, from what I understand there won't be any notable death from now on as the Reaper himself has copped it. So we have to organize: *msc goes to Chandigarh and Balbir Singh will be only a bad memory *Sir Creep goes to Managua and lights a candle for Violeta Chamorro *joeyruss has a difficult task: he has to go to New Dehli and send Dilip Kumar out of space *DI goes to Bejing and puts away Li Rui *gcreptile visits Siddaganga Mutt *I go for the most difficult mission: take out General Anh. I can show you a clip which illustrates how I will work. If everyone has understood you can start now! P.S. For police officers, *THAT'S A JOKE* THAT'S A JOKE* THAT'S A JOKE* It was completely unpredictable they would all be killed on the same day, officer! 1 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
