Wurtzel's cancer was known and it's a common strategy in this game to pick cancer sufferers

from my list: Trebek, Genesis P-Orridge, RBG

Tom Smith (rugby union, born 1971)
this is a curious entry from your list!
I was thinking of adding Connery this year, flush with the success of getting Roger Moore right a few years back. But I had him down as a centenarian

Every year I look for minor celebrities with cancer. Also dwarfs, I've had success with dwarfs.

I think my only "win" this year is Nicholas Parsons and I swear the BBC must have a shitload of pre-recorded eps of Just A Minute because it still seems to be on R4 every day ffs.

In 2021, you need to have a "live pool", where you get points for the oldest people who survive the year. Less nihilistic.
― Halfway there but for you, Tuesday, 24 November 2020 15:04 (three years ago) link
I can still make it nihilistic by nominating Donald Trump.
― 好 now 烧烤 (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Tuesday, 24 November 2020 15:05 (three years ago) link
I can still make it nihilistic by nominating Donald Barron Trump.
― calzino, Tuesday, 24 November 2020 15:21 (three years ago) link
suggesting that, instead of a dead pool 2021 you guys do a first trump out of the pool pool

unperson in the 6th post

― ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Friday, 1 January 2021 19:28 (three years ago) link
As explained in the first post of every thread tho you score 100-n points for a correct prediction, Douglas would have got you -3 points

yeah, it would be done in order to mock the game and also death.
