Sheep - a forum game

[Hooray]

None of the questions are too difficult. One or two may require a little bit of research.

The hardest one I think is the last one - an African-born British citizen. I was thinking up loads of potential answers, but when I checked their places of birth it was usually somewhere in the UK!

 

[MagpieBee]

Very difficult round. Took me a long time to think up an answer for the final question.

 

[Habbinalan]

Newbie. Got the hang with a quick scan but looked up "the rules of sheep" anyway and was taken back to the Herdwicks of my childhood http://www.herdy.co.uk/blog/all-about-herdwicks/21/post

but then...

I got distracted and stumbled over the Dorpers - a South African Breed that I'd never heard of and that was split (segregated?) into Black Dorpers and White Dorpers. Who would have thought?

I found that an extremely obvious answer came to me straight away for the last one. Whether its scores highly is another question though.

I think I speak for everyone here when I say 'not me'.

Same...

They were hard, Instantly had someone come to mind for the 10th question. Will probably be an ace but I couldn't be arsed to think anymore.

I made my own spreadsheet too. With regards to matching answers, I just changed them as I copied them into it so it didn't really take any time at all. So basically you put in the answers like this and it gives you the output here (you change the 'current question' number to get the answer output for each question (and the table up to the selected question). Also, auto-fills and sorts the overall table here. Only supports normal sheep and reverse sheep currently but if anyone wants to try it out (and improve/fix it, my excel knowledge is all trial and error), feel free to. http://www.filedropper.com/newtemplate

Finally got round to looking at this. It's fantastic, I highly recommend it to anyone running a season in future.

Looked good, putting names and answers in the "Answers" section didn't come up on the "Game 1" bit though, probably me being stupid, any ideas?

Did you put a full set of ten answers in? The Current Question (below Settings) on the Game 1 sheet was set to 10 so it would be looking for the 10th answer in the list.

 

[Smally]

Think I'm going to be terrible at this round

 

[SUTSS]

This will not be going ahead at 4 tomorrow. With LR running a live challenge in Survivor we're looking at a Friday 7pm rearrangement here.

 

[Shrimpurh]

SAKE!

 

[SUTSS]

This will get going after LR's tiebreaker in Survivor.

Early exit polls suggest Steady may stand to lose his seat at the top of the table.

 

[Mr Elmo]

If I get anything more than an ace on 8 or 10 I will actually be so happy

 

[SUTSS]

Are we ready for SHEEP!?!?!?!
