The front page obits are up to date, and the trackers updated with Jill our new lead. And Reptile fixed the annoying big white blank bit at the top of the page (a broken menu, basically) because he is great. Last time I got up to date, the dam broke. What is that Gooseberry Reaper planning next...

Joey Russ 7,263 Posted May 18, 2020 Admittedly, the past four months have very busy so you’d expect some quieter times ahead. Although if Gooseberry is right the quiet state of affairs won’t last for long... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,536 Posted May 21, 2020 Vinegar Tits, Ethnic Cleansing and Wormer etc have all achieved their 100th DDP hits btw. Belated congratulations. Deathlist.net is on 99 so their next DDP hit is 100. And Maryport is on 98. Going Underground on 97. Put here so I remember. In theory. Also pointing it out as still quite a rare feat. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,263 Posted May 25, 2020 A couple of LOTM things I found: Former US senator Tom Coburn was picked all the way back in 2014 on a theme team. Jimmy Cobb was last picked in 2013. Also last picked in 2013, Roy Horn 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As your posts are showing up long after the fact you might want to @ one of the Cmme for queries. But in public, yes, I do not believe there is a home in the DDP for such cases much longer.

Yeah, that's why I PM'ed this discussion to you after posting it, having realised it would take a considerable delay for it to be noticed. I'm relieved to hear that Kervorkian Clinic might have to take a rather different tack next year although amazingly only one of their picks appears to have died, and she didn't obit. So it seems these rules might not be as necessary as first though; as the real low barrel stuff falls flat on it's face. @msc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
