Handle id #2115 : Gollum

"Date of Death :
17 October 2014"

I hope this is not a bad joke! Rest in peace Gollum!!!
Sad news, that another well known scener left this world.
You was one of my heroes back in the golden days!

This is really sad news, if true. His early LFK cracks were common around here and inspired me a lot.

Lynx: Since you edited his entry, would you mind sharing what happened?

The only source to this is some guy called Jan Kirchoff Gyldenlykke. He posted info about this yesterday at 22:03 on the Dominators facebook page (!?). He had no sources, but said he knew some friends of a "swedish dude" called "Goolum" (he did spell Gollum wrong every time he wrote it). I asked if he meant "Gollum/Fairlight" and he said yes. I have no clue why this Jan outed this on the Dominators facebook page. I asked for sources, but only got this answer: "it will come out just wait a bit.."

That's about it. Nothing more is known. Lynx got the info there, and I am sure he don't know more than this. Don't change Gollum's entry on CSDb before there are other sources, please.

It is now confirmed by The Sarge (he called Gollum) as a false rumour, and can now be seen as a good example of why we must confirm rumours like this with reliable sources before changing information in this database and freak out online.

I still wonder why this Jan trolled people. And if it's true that some swedish "Goolum" passed away, I wonder who that was. There is some Amiga scener called Goolum.

Sorry for spreading false news (rumours). I believed this changed entry! I am happy now on the other hand, that Gollum is ok!!!
