Boxing Sheep Season 3 Game 9 & 10 Deadline Tuesday 25/07/12 @3.45pm

by paperbag_puncher Mon 23 Jul 2012, 9:21 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

If I was an unprincipled points scrounger there is one very obvious answer that is screaming out. However, when my answer(s) invariably turn out to be aces, I know that I'll be able to go home tonight and look my daughter in the eye and declare that I took a stand against the decline in Sheep standards and got my geography right!

God help me.... For this particular game there are no wrong answers. It makes it easier for me to score and means I can run more games. But as long as you can sleep tonight ay Wink

It's a noble stand to take superfly and I thought about doing similar but then decided geographical accuracy was no match for unscrupulously scrounged points.

All it takes for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing.

I'll have to check my atlas when I get home but, from memory, I've never found North vs South America particularly well differentiated on most maps (political ones, obviously).

As it's a double answer game I've gone for one undisputably correct answer and one controversial one Wink

Not sure if you are being genuine or if this is some kind of inuendo... I'll bite.

You have 10 questions. You get to answer each question twice. So you could send me two sets of individual answers to the questions. Or you could answer the same question with the one answer if you think it will score highly. Basically you send two sets of answers. There will be two seanmichaels in the mix to score points so you've double the chance of coming in the top 5. Technically you can come 1st and 2nd and hence score 10 and 7 points respectively.. Rubbish explanation but hope it helps.

by **Union Cane** Tue 24 Jul 2012, 12:59 pm

South America is that big bit, surely.

That happened to me once when I was 22.

How very dare you sir. Whistle

You're a legend PP. I had thought your 2 answers would be added together to give you a score for each question.

Sorry PP but is there a chance you could put the questions up for the entire day for tomorrow please as I am not in the office?

That would help me too what with the time difference but I appreciate how much work goes into this anyway so if it's too much/not possible, it's all good.

As well as confusing Central America with South America, a scary amount of you don't seem to know the difference between dead and retired.
