Wormfarmer 427 Posted July 1, 2019 Due to my surprise (and potential for a score) that bluegrass legend and member of The Seldom Scene, John Starling, has not yet gotten a creditable Obit, I did a short search and on MSN.com got several hits, including The Boston Globe, The Washington Post and Celebrity Access. I know those sites aren't listed as qualifying, but since I found them via msn.com, which IS a qualifying site, how do you determine from there if the obit is good or not? In other words, what is considered a good obit when found via msn.com? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the hit is an actual article written on msn it would count if it is msn.com/obitnotablepersonxyz,but it seems like msn is just linking to other websites.

Wormfarmer 427 Posted August 18, 2019 In addition to the big hit everyone just had with Kathleen Blanco, I believe I was missed when pts were being tallied for Beth Chapman. So without any credit for John Starling, I should be at 1245. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Des O'Connor Subs Richard Bonynge Vera Lynn Martin Peters Thanks for running, GUB Due to some incompetence on the transcription front I see I submitted a team with no 10 or 11. Due to further incompetence on the observation front it has taken me 4 months to notice this and yet further incompetence on the administrative front means I have lost my record of who I intended the lucky people to be anyway. I assume I am unable to promote subs to fill the gap and this is my own tough sh*t for being useless, but thought I would ask the question anyway (?) Thanks.
