Thanks to ongoing help from Willz, Joey and DI... theme team standing, List of the Lost, List of the Missed all updated. 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...

 

Here's one for the list of the missed - died on 30 April

Should Have Been Eurovision. Instead It Is Eurovirus And Death. Round Up #9

 

Hutton Gibson: Awaiting Obit.

Monique Mercure: Awaiting Obit.

Sad state of affairs... the competition comes to a screeching halt with 7 hits in 18 days. Though we are kind of unlucky in who we did and didn't pick, I guess.

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...

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.

No shit, hadn't bothered counting from one year to the next!

 

Some talent still breathes on my 2020 line up - a ton by Christmas seems doable :rolleyes:

Think I'm on 84,  if we leave out non QOs and theme team hits.

Yup, that's correct. At some point the full list should be updated, none of the stats are compiled automatically by the system.

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

In spite of his huge prominence in here, Balbir Singh is a apparently a unique hit.

Michael Angelis is one for the List of the Missed. He was in my Carla Lane theme two years ago.

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.

Redmond was one of my subs, so I am relieved she has not obitted yet. I don't know who else chose her. I am still not over  relegating Heather Couper to the subs bench.

Maybe not obscure enough.

 

They are neither the daughter of a micronation's founder with a doubtful royal title

 

http://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2020/celebs_M.html#manganr020

 

Nor the octogenarian mother of a controversial not-very-known artist

Not Gone Yet But Still Forgotten indicates they were known at some point which I'd be doubtful of with that line up...
