Nine days to go, and only 4 entries received for the 2021 Deathlist game. Please would anyone wishing to take part please email me? Also, if you can persuade a friend to take part, that would be great

Another entry received - thanks Mol

Get your skates on, the rest of you!

Sorry. When's the deadline again?

This is harder to pick than it looks, over 50% of the names I've come up with had already pegged out...

Every Year I think of sending a list and then fail to get round too it.
Well this year I break my duck, List sent.

Hi TC - the deadline’s Midnight on December 31st, but I’ll be happy to extend to allow people to finish their lists if necessary - just let me know you’re playing before then.

List received, thanks Bald Bloke

I'll send mine through soon, I always have an ongoing paper list but crossed so many off this year, including today for Pierre Cardin.

A little over 24 hours to go, and I'm expecting lists from Coelacanth and TC.

I've had lists now from all other current players except Pink Paisley, who's gone off-radar.

Would anyone object if I submitted a list for the 2021 game? I haven't duplicated anyone else's picks to my knowledge.

List sent, plus two spare names. Thank you for organising it again!

Object is a strong word, but I'd have my reservations. Here's my What you're planning to submit is a list that you could guarantee is going to be 15 unique picks or, if not, then could be taking a unique pick away from another player. No other player gets that opportunity, but the picking process of trying to find the unique names - well that's part of the game too isn't it?

I recall a game controversy quite a few years ago when people submitted late lists after seeing who players had picked, and as I recall in the end this was deemed unfair, especially to players who had managed what had been unique picks.

So, how about you submit your list, because it's interesting to see other ones, but don't claim points?

ok, I'll declare my list at the start of the game, but I won't add it to the home page or scoreboard

Would anyone object if I submitted a list for the 2021 game? I haven't duplicated anyone else's picks to my knowledge.Think you should, I for one trust you not to have cheated and looked, besides unique picks are not confirmed money spinners, they have just as much chance of surviving as every other pick..

I’ll post one but not take part.

I’ve received TC’s list, so we have an undiminished game going into 2021

Any last-minute entries from new players - now’s your chance!

I now have time to compile the new game pages. I might even write a Mu Beta-style game intro - beware

Happy New Year!
