Wormfarmer 429 Posted March 8, 2021 I may be jumping the gun if you are updating soon, but I believe Sylvain Sylvain, Leon Spinks and Rush Limbaugh will add 436 to my total and make it 1691. If not for the Killer Tim Brooks fiasco (a non obit choice at 450 pts), I might be doing pretty well here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torva Messor 282 Posted March 27, 2021 https://www.cbc.ca/books/beverly-cleary-beloved-children-s-book-author-dead-at-104-1.5966390 Beverly Cleary is my 8th place pick, she died 24 Mar 2021. 225 additional points. My subtotal is 2290 points for ten "strikes". From the last posted subtotal of 1950 points for me, I bet the missing 115 points are from dissident decedents George Shultz - 16th - 70 points, and 19th pick Murray Walker with 45 points. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
