Yancey had him for several years about a decade ago. Finally decided it was a sucker bet and let him go.

Okay... CNN came up with a new 2017 obit page and it still sucks. A 66 person slideshow.

How do we judge in 2018?

Just needs to be reported by CNN? Or maybe they have to hit CNN, FOX, and BBC? So far all the names off our list that I've checked have made all three. But maybe that's too loose a standard.

What does everyone think?

Has wikipedia page is the absolute minimum. Also you could use sources to determine notoriety.
Heracles. Fists. Pantheon.

Wikipedia, sure. But how do you determine notoriety? Does making it into the MLB Hall of Fame count? Some people say yes. But others point out that there are tons of hall of famers from half a century ago that were only known among sports enthusiasts of the time and that none of us have heard of. Who makes the final decision?

We've tried pre-approval of celebrities and majority rule, and both methods are super-problematic.

I like Kyle's suggestion of 2 of the following reporting it: ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CNN, BBC

Now get me some lists!

Garrison Keillor seems to be quite alive. Otherwise, would be all over on news.

Congratulations Kyle!

Excellent game. You take home the Nerd Pride Deadpool Pryor Cup for the next year. You should be proud.

Oh my gosh! What a surprise. Oh my goodness! I didn't even prepare anything. First and foremost, I want to thank God Above for this win. Without him, this wouldn't be possible. I want to thank my wife and family. Your support is what keeps me going everyday to keep striving and fighting for the deadpool victories. I want to thank my entire team. My agent, Jessie Painter. My manager, Lance Poiret, and my publicist Terri Snorlsson. The entire crew over at CAA. Oh man, I know I'm forgetting someone. I don't know... OH! All of you! You were great competitors and it was an honor just playing in the same sandbox with y'all. Thank you all so, so much! I love you!
