Well how about that.  27 days, that's like 1.2 days per entry, and they're STILL Fd up lol.  I see I skipped a couple names, so don't fret, I have your PMs and will put the names in.  THEN we will get down to the business of marking some scores.

@Sir Creep I have sent a Mail concerning my list.   

[Banana 859]

Gc has hitchon twice on his team btw

[Sir Creep 7,070]

After five weeks, you would think we missed dozens of hits.
In fact I see three total: Bullett Bob Armstrong, Frankie Banali, and Dale Hawerchuk.  Surely I will be corrected and/or enlightened lol.
You would think a fair number of points.  In fact all I see is 4.

Sumner Redstone is a hit for me here. @Sir Creep Thank you.

Sumner Redstone is also a hit, and I need to see if Hume was picked at all

EDIT: he was

Thanks for all this! You seemed to have forgotten the bonus points for those who were born from 1940 or later. Also for my unique hit of Sumner Redstone for  2 + 3 solo.  Additionally, those who had Armstrong should receive the extra points for having the vowel A, in the last name.

There’s more points if you include the bonus points that you omitted.

Ah yeah, me, Death Impends, and GuyFromFuture needs another point for vowel hit. And the Banali and Hawerchuk pickers need the 1940 or later points.

Forrest Fenn obit. If it’s acceptable, I believe that’s worth 6 points (3 for alliteration, 3 for a solo).

Yikes! Great call! I had him on a list somewhere, then forgot!  
Hope this game gets updated soon! Hard to keep track of it. 

Needs to be updated for Lee Kerslake, Pat Smullen, Sumner Redstone, John Hume, Stanley Crouch, Forrest Fenn, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Tommy DeVito, Frank Windsor and Arthur Ashkin. NB! Also Eddie van Halen.

Additionally many should have solo/duo points, alliteration points, being born in 1940 or afterwards points, extra points for certain letters, etc.

[Joey Russ 7,220]

Some of us also picked Pat Smullen here

[gcreptile 10,963]

Oh, Stanley Crouch is also a hit for me, here.

[gcreptile 10,963]

Lots of people here picked RBG.

Tommy DeVito has died RIP

Believe the New York Times is a QO, in which case here it is. 
But will he be another Nobel prize snub in the UK? We’ll see...

Van Halen somehow a unique for me. Now I think it's about time for this pool to be properly updated

If this pool is still going, Roberta McCain is a hit for a few of us. My entry appears backward, but the play is on the R, so 1 point I believe.

On closer inspection, it may be a duo. 2 points then?

 

[gcreptile 10,963]

Conchata Ferrell a duo for Sir Creep and me after a QO. Maybe that might incite an update?

Updated - and we see gcreptile, on the strength of his unusual names becoming his usual solo hits, taking the lead as we round the 1/6th pole.  Upstart HDS having a strong start, and a few of the top regulars filtering in below him.  
As before, if you think points were missed, do please let me know.
