NEW GAME! Boxing Kangaroo 13/07 Deadline 2:15pm
First topic message reminder :
Anyone ever play sheep? Basically I'll ask a series of "mainly boxing" related questions and the aim is to answer with the most popular answer. So for example if I asked name a heavyweight champion and 7 people said Ali they would get 7 points. If 5 said Louis they would get 5 points and so on. Whoever gets the most points wins. You would PM me your answers. I've seen it played on other forums and it seems to work well and passes some time.
Seems to be a bit of interest so we'll go again.
I have included the odd non boxing question to jazz it up a bit
NOTE THIS IS KANGAROO. In kangaroo answers must be incorrect. Incorrect answers score the same as in sheep, while correct answers score 0. Highest score wins. Again I have recycled some questions as there is a different dynamic to this game again
THIS GAME IS JUST FOR FUN.
Name a boxer who fought and lost to Ricky hatton
Name a current British boxer who holds a World Title
Name and English boxer who was born in London
Name a British boxer who has never been KO'd
Name a British HW who is fighting at Upton Park this weekend
Name a character from the Simpsons whos surname is Simpson
Name a British actor who hasn't won an Oscar
Name an English city
Name a country that uses the Euro
Name a football team that retained its premier league status in the 20011/2012 season
Everyone welcome please PM me your answers in an unnumbered list by 2:15Pm if you want to play. Remember you are looking for the most popular answer
Can you please PM your answers on their own in an unnumbered list. So without the questions or numbers beside them. Thanks it makes the calculating much easier

Everyone welcome please PM me your answers in an unnumbered list by 2:15Pm if you want to play. Remember you are looking for the most popular answer
- rules:
- Normal sheep - there are no wrong answers and internet use is permitted. You are looking for the most popular answer and score points depending on how many others guess the same answer
Reverse sheep - you are looking for the most unique answer. Incorrect answers are penalised. Incorrect answers score 1.5 times the highest correct score (rounded up). So if the highest correct score was 7, incorrects would receive 11. Internet use is not permitted.
I will be running short seasons consisting of 10 games. Points will be awarded to the first 5 players in each game no matter how many players.
1st -10
2nd-7
3rd-5
4th-3
5th-1
If there is a tie for a position players will get equal full points for their position, eg if 3 people tie for 1st then all 3 will get 10 points each. Games must have a minimum of 10 players. The winner of each season will be the person with most points after the 10 games. If level after 10 games the winner will be decided by how many 1st places a person had and so on.
I am running this in a way that makes it as easy as possible for myself. Reverse sheep won't be a regular occurrence but I will try fit it in when I can.
In reverse sheep I will always try and give the player the benefit of the doubt and will only mark answers incorrect when I have to. I have no preferences as to who wins. My decision is final.

You believe everything you read on Wikipedia?? Born in Ireland = Irish ethinicity, even if he uprooted early in life.

I'm allowing McLarnin. He was born on the island of Ireland and lived there till he was 3. If you disagree that is fine.

Union is right. It does say Irish boxer not Canadian boxer born in Ireland

Nonsense.
By your logic if the question was "Name an English super middleweight champion" then Joe Calzaghe would be correct.

Born in Ireland to Irish parents, think that makes him Irish as far as I'm concerned or do we class mcguigan as British not Irish?

If a cow gave birth to you, in a barn, a raised you in a herd of cows I would call you a cow. He was born in Ireland, to Irish parents, raised by an Irish family, but moved to Canada aged 3.
Were his parents not Irish because they moved part way through their lives also?

They weren't irish as they didn't wear green tights, like potatoes or have ginger hair.

He was later awarded dual nationality, that doesn't answer the question. His original citizenship before emigrating was British and he never gave this up.

Ok, but McLarnin clearly considered himself to be Canadian, which is an entirely different scenario.
Irrelevant anyway, P-Bag has decided and his word is final.

I consider myself to be both handsome and intelligent, unfortunately not everybody agrees.

Can't see me catching up much on the last question, as I could only think of two 'W's in the IBHOF and they're both bleeding obvious JJ Walcott and Sweet Pea!

Guys I'm heading out of the office for a few hours. I've kept the same questions for Normal sheep. Deadline is 2pm. Union if you could do the table and scores for game 4 I'd be much obliged.

Damn, I was pushing the top five before the last question!! He was the only well known boxer I could think of with a surname beginning W and I hoped he was in there. At least it was better than having an incorrect answer. Thanks for this

and he got away with Jimbo, that as an incorrect answer was at least 12 points!
I would have beaten him, and thats saying something. I hate reverse sheep. But I know a couple of members who love it.

Don't let his being born in Ireland to Irish parents fool you, Wikipedia says he's Canadian so he's Canadian.

Ok, Wikipedia is discredited, how about this list of the greatest Canadian fighters?

Same questions as game 4, but it's a normal game rather than reverse.
