Lemonade Posted May 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 When my wife told me Ian Brady had died I thought it was the guy from The Lightning Seeds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted May 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) That's a sad one. I was a really big fan of Soundgarden in my teens, they were really influential on me musically and one of the first alternative / rock bands I ever got in to. Spoonman was one of the first songs I ever learned to play. I never cared for Audioslave that much but there are some bangers on that first album. Sad I never got to see him live. Soundgarden played here about 5 years ago but the tickets were way too expensive for me. Edited May 18, 2017 by Lemonade 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubbs Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 I saw him om his solo tour a few years ago in Glasgow and it was a really enjoyable gig - very chilled and just him basically pissing about inbetween songs. Shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroopy121 Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Roger Ailes. Gutted I didn't have this piece of shit in my team as the only thing that could make me happier than seeing him die is getting points from it. xx http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39963887 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wikipedia still has him down as being alive, described the page as "This biography of a living person". Also says reports of his death cannot be confirmed. Too many question marks on this to award points IMO. I'll keep checking for updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted May 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) Seems like a particularly insensitive time to do a points update, but also the only evening in a while I don't have any other plans so here goes. Emma Morano Age 117 3 points No bonuses 6 points for @Improved Thinker who also scores a 3 point Unique Pick Ian Brady Age 79 7 points No bonuses 7 points each for @Delboy1969 @James Broonbreed @Lemonade and 14 for @Scubby who had him as joker. Roger Moore Age 89 No bonuses 6 points 9 points for @Scubby who picks up a Unique Pick. With that double whammy from Scubby we have a new runaway leader! Player - Points. / Number of picks / Average Age 1 . Scubby - 30 3 82 2 . colb - 13 1 45 3 . James Broonbreed - 12 2 85 4 . Bigsby - 10 1 73 5 . ca_gere - 7 1 77 6 . Delboy1969 - 7 1 79 7 .
