NEW GAME! Boxing Kangaroo 13/07 Deadline 2:15pm

by paperbag_puncher Thu 05 Jul 2012, 10:20 am

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

rules:

MATHS!!!!

by TopHat24/7 Fri 13 Jul 2012, 10:23 am

fudge sake, changed maths to physics at the last second as I figured maths was a primary school subject too whereas Physics is only specifically taught at secondary. clearly over-thought matters......

Tell me about it.

Seriously though, English?? Pansy.

Points for the last round are as follows. I have no idea how to update the league table. I will give it a go though.

superflyweight -10
spencerclarke -7
Union Cane -7
owen10ozzy -5
JDizzle -3
bhb001 -1

by **owen10ozzy** Fri 13 Jul 2012, 10:30 am

Paperbag - League tables are a pain. If you are struggling just go into the OP...copy table out and send it my way in a PM. I will send an updated one back to you!...

Also I believe I have won!! WOOOOHOOOOO!

I shall celebrate on my own as I know a few people will be reluctant to accept me as Champion!!

I'm terrible at English as well. Would have to agree with your description of myself.

Congrats Owen, may your next victory be less tainted with obvious signs of google.

You certainly have won. I may take you up on your offer but I'll have a go first thanks.

Congrats (wouldn't it be a coincidence if I won OMPL season 2 ay Whistle

)

by **owen10ozzy** Fri 13 Jul 2012, 10:41 am

trottb - Cheers Pal. Yeh I think ill have to dumb myself down for a few of you next time round. I don't like too...but if it gives others a chance then hey ho!

Paperbag - That would be. Although at the moment I fear it may not be going ahead. I only have 14 odd predictions in...so 30+ have yet to predict!!

by Danny Fri 13 Jul 2012, 10:43 am

Just out of interest my answer to the initials CB was Colin Bell. Is this an actual boxer as I made it up? And PP thats the first time I been called a marvel so thanks Very Happy

Danny wrote:Just out of interest my answer to the initials CB was Colin Bell. Is this an actual boxer as I made it up? And PP thats the first time I been called a marvel so thanks

Yeah apparently there were a few Aussie boxers called Colin Bell. Not that it mattered as there are no wrong answers in sheep.

by paperbag_puncher Fri 13 Jul 2012, 10:49 am

With regards to the league table I am trying to update it but I am doing each player one by one so may take a while. I'll put up new questions first before trying to update it again..

by **owen10ozzy** Fri 13 Jul 2012, 10:55 am

Haha! Paperbag...I feel for you. Doing the tables the first few weeks in OMPL sent me insane.

Union could vouch as I was pestering him every 10 minutes for help!!

If you need assistance in the future just send me over a copy of the initial table and ill save it to word...

That way you have myself and union to help you if you dont have the time or patience.

I have to pop out for an hour/ hour & half....hopefully be back before the next deadline.

OK the final table is up. Well done to owen10ozzy who becomes the inaugural winner of The paperbag_puncher Sheep Championship (PPSC) Despite shouts of loaded gloves and accusations of PEDs he was a worthy winner. Well done to everyone who made it on to the league table. I'll be back next week for season 2.

Is there anyone who played regularly that didn't score any points? I want you named and shamed.
