Johnny - Sometimes you're an okay poster (other times not) and I have a weird soft spot for you. I'm assuming your long list of famous people was mostly non-poker people?
That almost certainly doesn't belong in BBV as best I can tell.
OOT has some pretty strict guidelines there as I believe you have already found out the hard way (I believe I saw some bad poker-content posts you made in there a long time ago).
If you aren't sure whether your 'list' is good enough for OOT (they tend to frown on list posts) then you can either run it by a mod there via PM or you can post it in their monthly garbage thread which they just started.
It's less moderated and you can get away with posting much more varied stuff (within reason) and you can even ask for feedback from others if they think your topic would make a worthwhile thread in there.
Here's the link for the OOT-garbage thread:
