Boxing Sheep Season 4 Game 10 HEEP Deadline Thursday 02/08/12 @2.30pm

by paperbag_puncher Fri 27 Jul 2012, 2:07 pm

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

Game 10 - Sheep Deadline 02-08-12 2:30pm NOTE THIS IS HEEP. The objective of heep is to guess the second highest answer. Scoring is the same as sheep, with the following differences: the highest answer (or tied answers) receives a score of 0, while the second highest answer (or tied answers) gets their points doubled. Highest score wins. THIS GAME IS WORTH DOUBLE POINTS Some questions may be repeat ones as there is a different dynamic to this game.

Name a boxer from Cuba
Name a big punching boxer with a fragile chin
If fights were to the finish (until someone was KO'd not killed) who would be HW champion today
Name an active boxer who is tall for his weight class
Who wins this 4 man tournament Audley, Ali, Rogan, Frazier
Name a movie trilogy
Name a type of street drug
Name a type of bear
Name a Blur song
How old is paperbag_puncher (yes this question is meant to be here)

You're a lawyer. You already have huge amounts of money without having to actually work very often.

... but I have to pay to get into games - Scottish games!

No, Tina. I was a lawyer for Tesco for a couple of years but managed to chew my way out of that bear trap. Horrible company to work for!

I was joking about the dancing, sean. I'm 34 and won't go near a dance floor for fear of looking like I'm doing dad dancing!

OK. I just remember you having one of your many 'discussions' with the Beefster and it was just after the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. I vaguely remember him giving you stick for being a lawyer and I thought you had mentioned working for BP but obviously not.

As you were.

by **superflyweight** Thu 02 Aug 2012, 3:08 pm

I think he did accuse me of working for BP (in his head it probably made sense) and as I was working at Tesco at the time I did tell him I was working for a big, evil corporation but refused to tell him which.

by **seanmichaels** Thu 02 Aug 2012, 3:12 pm

I quite liked working at Tesco while I was at Uni. Fascinating seeing what people buy. I reckon a persons shopping trolley says a lot about them.

Am I on a 'one to watch' list or something? I'm a changed man. I haven't sold my soul like Union but he's from Grimsby so it is to be expected.

Also PP why have I completely disappeared from the table now?

by Reborn-DeeMcK-Reborn Thu 02 Aug 2012, 3:25 pm

I have 57 points, not 20 sumink

I worked for them for years when I was at school and during uni. Worked in a shop in quite a bad area and it was like Fort Apache! Once had an old woman approach me with an aubergine in her hand to ask me if it was a black pudding.

by bhb001 Thu 02 Aug 2012, 3:35 pm

Tables gone kaput. I have 5 points from game 1 and didn't even play in that one. Hence the higher than normal score I suppose!! Leave it alone and it will get fixed. I have great confidence in PP and Union.

If you're are from Grimsby you have no soul.

Might get plenty of sole, but that's another issue

I thought all shops in Scotland just sold cans of cider in brown paper bags and haggis.

I know mate. I was just making comment on what bhb wrote a couple of posts up.

IG, what was for dinner?

Chinese - Italian fusion.

The missus' boss went to Italy and came back with a load of dried meat, maybe bresaola or something (thanks google). I'm sure it would cost a lot in the import shops here but I'm not really into dried meat so we just chucked it in with some fried rice.

Pretty tasty as it 'appens.

Is the chinese chicken curry (gravy like stuff with peas in) and chips on many menus out there?

No mate, for reasons unknown to me the oddballs don't eat real Chinese food like that.

As an aside, I once witnessed a middle-aged bloke have what must have been his very first pizza. He looked perplexed at first, until the waitress took pity and brought him some chopsticks to pick up the slices with.

Ok folks due to unforseen circumstances today's game couldn't go ahead. The table is as it is because I messed up the current one so pasted in an old one as a template which I will update. I'll finish the game when I get a chance

by compelling and rich Thu 02 Aug 2012, 10:01 pm

go away for a few days with no internet and still find im top of the table, thats how i roll king

might as well have jump in for heep, although im offically terrible at it

by **owen10ozzy** Thu 02 Aug 2012, 10:19 pm

You can't...deadline was ages ago.... Wink

On that note..Paperbag, hectic day at work today so only just had a chance to see this game. Sent you my answers...since you haven't run it yet im hoping you will be kind enough to allow my entry...

That and the fact others have gotten away with it numerous times Whistle

Cheers!

Although not ideal I'm going to post the results to heep now. I'll be busy in work tomorrow and then off for 2 weeks so rather than leave you hanging I'll do it now.

For those that don't know in heep the top answer scores 0. The second top answer gets double points unless there is more than one top answer. In this case there are no double points. EG Rigondeaux is top answer so scores 0. Kindelan, Teofilo, Gamboa and Savon were the 2nd top answer 2 people guessed each so thats doubled and they get 4 points. Aces get 1 point.

Well done to Michaels who couldnt be caught going into this game and against all odds and reason will be in the final. League table will be updated in due course.

Well done to Tina who ends the season on a high and also to superflyweight who is ridiculously consistent and must be an early favourite for one of the best runner up spots if he doesnt manage to win one himself.

Im sure we may have covered this, but who goes into the final if a previous season winner takes another?

I always thought I would be quite fun to be a copper. Not the best paid but you get to lock up the baddies...

Failing that something which pays obscene amounts of money for very little effort would be good, like a footballer.
