Lroy Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 It's what you've all been waiting for; who is going to be the first "notable person" to succumb to life in the 20's? The way it works is simple; you guess a name, if they die first, you win. Your guess must be made before 1st Jan, you can't change your mind after that. If your horse falls before 1st Jan, nae luck. If you don't think someone's guess is notable enough, mention it in December, don't wait until it wins before you start complaining. 1 guess per user, no doubles. On 1st Jan, the thread becomes an obituary column for people who don't deserve their own thread. Happy hunting.
