If you died

Who would let The Cellar know?
Aliantha • Apr 19, 2011 11:23 pm
No one.
monster • Apr 19, 2011 11:25 pm
So you could be dead right now?

I dream of playing for the redwings. At least I did last night.
TheMercenary • Apr 19, 2011 11:34 pm
I doubt my wife would take the time. She hates the Cellar.
monster • Apr 19, 2011 11:35 pm
that's funny.
TheMercenary • Apr 19, 2011 11:39 pm
Well she knows that Bri and I are secret lovers, so she is not going to tell her when I am dead. But if you send me your mailing address I will try to leave you in my will.
BrianR • Apr 19, 2011 11:45 pm
My wife will let friends know. Some are here and will pass on the news, not that anyone will fail to miss the flags at half-staff, the schools and courts closing and the national day of mourning.

who will you leave me to?
TheMercenary • Apr 19, 2011 11:52 pm
Well I will leave you in my Safety Deposit Box until I am reincarnated and can come back and pay you for the time you were stuck there.
Tulip • Apr 19, 2011 11:54 pm
No one. Would anyone miss me if I just disappear one day?
monster • Apr 19, 2011 11:57 pm
If I died, beest would tell you. Maybe not straight away. Maybe after 6 months or so. In a thread where people got so pissed off at me in my absence they mentioned paintball.

Would he put bits of your ashes in little paint ball orbs and fire them at various random people across the city? I think that would be a cool way to go....


My family knows I want to be cremated and my ashes spread on the local rugby pitch right before a match. I participated in that one time and thought it was so very cool.
Clodfobble • Apr 20, 2011 12:06 am
What would happen is Mr. Clod would be checking my email account after my death, since tons of important crap about the kids goes through there. And sooner or later he would see something come in from Bruce, and then he would probably reply and let Bruce know, and figure Bruce would take care of letting the rest of you know.

Y'all did? Aww....I don't remember. My memory is failing me. :blush:
DanaC • Apr 20, 2011 6:20 am
I suspect J would bob on and let y'all know.
morethanpretty • Apr 20, 2011 6:43 am
Hmm, I doubt any one would think to do so. One of the cellarites on my facebook might see it on there and tell the rest of y'all. That is, if someone posts my death on facebook. Maybe I should leave a request in my will. Just in case, never know whats gonna happen.

I died 3 years ago and STILL no one has noticed!

(FYI, Hell only has dial-up)

Mum is uber-organised about death.
She passed it on to me.
There were raised eyebrows in my previous job about who should be contacted on the occasion of injury/ death. I listed about five different people. But I didn't live with a partner, and my parents were often away.

Anyway, I am super-organised too.
My bro knows my Cellar username and password, but knows he could contact UT.
He also has Bruce's email address, and Dani's mobile.

To be fair, this partly comes from a conversation we had when we went on a coach holiday to Spain. Ste was 15, I was 18. I've no idea how or why Mum allowed me to take him across the Continent! But we agreed that should we go on an optional excursion (our passports held by the hotel) we would be hard to identify. I had no driving licence, credit or debit card (I had a cashpoint card which I left at home as it wouldn't work in Spain) and no dental history.

Ste had had lost of dental work, but what if his skull was pulverised?

Bugged us both for years.
So he doesn't think it's weird to have to come here in the event of my death.
I think he's just grateful I haven't given him a calling list of furriners.
Sheldonrs • Apr 20, 2011 1:43 pm
I won't need to have anyone contact the Cellar when i die. Just check the news. The headline will read something like:
"Matt Damon arrested for manslaughter after being sexually assaulted in his home by a maniac wearing a jock strap and bunny slippers".

:D

If Emma died (FSM forbid) would one of her sock puppets let us know?

Yeah maybe, but it'd probably end up on FB anyway, and there are quite a number of cellar dwellars there as friends on my list.
pensive pam • Apr 20, 2011 7:34 pm
Interesting post. I have been on other wesites like this where people have died. They stop posting. That is all that happens.
Believe me, it is very creepy when that happens...

:lol2: Same here.

When I die, I'll be lucky if anyone even gives a shit. But, given the way I've lived my life, that won't really be a surprise. I won't know anyway, so I ain't fretting over it.

I hate when that happens. I remember a gamer friend and guildmate suddenly vanished back in my UO days. He was in his late 60s and he and his wife were having some issues. So it could be that he had decided to focus on his marriage. But he also had a heart condition. I never did find out what happened to him.

Well, by posting this, I risk my identity, but 'Ah S*it' died on that other site. I found out through other people. I do not wish bad things on anyone, but he was not nice to me. But then again, most people are not. For some reason, I do like you as a poster on here.

BrianR • Apr 20, 2011 8:50 pm
We have had a user here die and it was quite a while until we found out. As I recall, it was UT who shared the news about Richh's passing. I'm ashamed to say he was my friend and I didn't know he had moved, much less moved on!
Rhianne • Apr 20, 2011 8:51 pm
If?

I don't want to worry you folks unduly but it's not a question of 'if'.
Rhianne • Apr 20, 2011 8:52 pm
The user who introduced me to The Cellar passed away about two years back.

Also, syc shared about ladysycamore's passing as well.
monster • Apr 21, 2011 1:06 pm
A guy on my old forum died of testicular cancer. His wife let us know, even though she had never posted there before. It was a bit of a shock because we had all thought he was in long-term remission, but it had metastasized to the brain which was not discovered until it was way too late and the end was very soon after that. We were very grateful she took the time to let us know.

Ya know...

I'm not someone who gets grossed out easily, and it's extremely hard to offend me.

But this...

This is way over the line.

I am utterly disgusted.

There are some things that just should never be said.

And YOU, Sheldon, should be ashamed of yourself.

I would think that a grown man would be more aware of the offense that a statement like that would cause.

I mean, really.

For fucks sake.

BUNNY SLIPPERS?!?!!!

Won't someone PLEASE think of the children!!!

Wait...

What color slippers?

That does make a difference... :D

In my final instructions with my will, there are instructions to notify the cellar. Also, a member of the collective knows me well & she can post an update
TheMercenary • Apr 28, 2011 8:33 pm
Maybe we should start a pool.

Each person takes out a nominal life insurance policy on another person.

100k ea. Should be cheap. We pool the people who get the pay off. Every time one of us kicks it we all get a bit of cash.
Clodfobble • Apr 28, 2011 11:35 pm
Sadly enough, that would be illegal. You can't take out an insurance policy on someone unless you have an "insurable interest;" that is, a demonstrable reason to want them to stay alive. Basically, only family members.

BUT, we could all take out a policy on a close elder relative, and every time one of them kicks the bucket...
TheMercenary • Apr 28, 2011 11:40 pm
There has to be a way around that. It should not be to hard to show that I have an insurable interest in other Cellar Dwellars if we set up a Corp or LLC.
kerosene • Apr 29, 2011 10:25 am
But then wouldn't you have to pay us all a salary? That wouldn't be so bad.
