And Mary Midgley. Double on the same day.

 

I'll wait for the Midge's QO to come through....:)

Mary Midgley is the sort of person I would expect on Last Word.

While I'm about.

 

Midgley hasn't got a fairly swift obit as yet. Bibliogryphon awaits a hit with her to boost him up the board, meantime, the chairman of the board Doug Ellis gives him a nice hit. No bonuses, leaderboard updated.

Yeah, and this moron did a better job than you of running your own pool,.

 

So what are you?

Oh yeah but was too much of a mong to put his hand up and say "do you want this back" until he'd decided to throw a hissy fit and faux quit the forum despite saying he'd hated  doing it for ages. All you had to do was send a fucking PM you daft git....

How about fucking no? Maybe you should go back to the laid back approach to moderation this place thrives on rather than being the DL fucking stazi. You know that allows people to say what they want, one of the things that makes this site one of the last bastions of true free speech on the web. You're in danger of becoming reddit or twitter - presume your going to start banning people left right and centre for sneezing soon?

And by the way your blocking facilities are the shittest I've ever come across. It took me minutes to bypass them...

Is the Deathray account banned for one week or one eternity? Keep that in mind if you think I'm some sort of Nazi hardliner ;)

Hmm, for a newbie you have some inside info. Ha!

 

A. I never said I didn't enjoy caretaking the Hare's. I rather liked it.

B. I never said I was quitting the Forum. I won't and can't be around as much (health reasons) and there are issues I have with some posters. Never the Deathray though, I have always liked him. Despite appearances. ;) 

C. I did send a PM. Told DR to take it back. DR grabbed with both hands.

 

Here's some excerpts from the exchange:

 

YW: Regain your pool for fear it will fall into the pit of despond......

YW: Stay busy, stay well and thank you for letting me be temporary custodian of your game. ;)

DR: I hope your not leaving the forum, it's only going to get worse losing the decent posters like yourself.

YW: I'll still be about, but I'm going to be a bit more selfish (like many on this forum).

 

I don't mind posting the whole exchange, for I simply have lost interest in the office politics.

 

Consider yourself factually corrected.

 

Now if anyone has anything actually valuable to add to this thread like missing obits or a death I've missed, let's get back on track. :sleep:

I’m still waiting for that Lindy Remigino obit. Not like it’d really help me much, but still. :tantrum:

The lack of a Remigino obit is maddening, but got me to thinking who are a few names we kick around as celebs who may not get a QO after all.  One I am thinking of is Sacheen Littlefeather.  You would THINK her a lock for a QO, but really apart from her one claim to fame she is nobody (See: Remigino).  She seems terribly tabloid though so should be ok.  I mean -- Barys Kit no QO?  Absurd....if I had told you you'd have had me put away.

Remigino should have got a QO and still might - year end sporting deaths in year?

 

Littlefeather will in my opinion because her story remains current and interesting and relevant and linked to the entertainment industry that seems to find QOs easy to come by - but we will see - as far as my Windy City team is concerned hopefully before April 30th 2019.

I think even if people don't know the name most people know the story about Brando rejecting the Oscars ceremony and sending a Native American lady to speak instead.

This is officially slow going, there doesn't seem to have been an obitable hit for weeks. Last year the game didn't go a fortnight without one.

 

I'm beginning to think I've missed someone.

 

Is the dam (situated to the North just above the Casino) about to burst?

The Mack shall never return to the casino, thanks to Ted's death.

 

FujimoriNoMorey and Captain Chorizo score hits, thus closing the gap on the lead.

 

No bonuses, leaderboard updated.

 

A crack appearing in that dam about to burst?

Additionally, special mentions must go to @Death Impends; @Joey Russ; and @gcreptile, who will all be added to the Hall of Cardblunts in the lavatories, as they all dropped Ted Mack this year. :D

I think that's the first time all of the teams without exception (apart from solo picks - and I'm not sure that's happened) who picked a name last year dropped the same name and that name is a scorer this year for more than one completely different team. It's quite astonishing. An achievement...of sorts. ;)
