Any other group and I'm in the cup. Highest scoring plate qualifier. Fuck it.

2nd lowest scoring plate qualifier vs highest scoring. This is my cue to lose.

Jesus, that was shocking.

Couple of surprises in there for me.

First one, the mexican city. Even though it isn't the biggest, Cancun is surely the most well known of all the 'other' mexican cities for British people. I thought that if that wasn't top answer then Tijuana would have been. I haven't even heard of the top answer!

Second question, the stag do. Thats been asked 3 or 4 times now, and every time its been asked before, its been a coin toss between Blackpool and Prague for top answer. Where the hell did Amsterdam come from? Normally it only gets 2 or 3 votes.

I am definitely a non-league team that has snuck through to the third round to be faced with a huge club.

Think I had a decent round there, just didn't get enough top answers for that version.

I love that Blackpool wasn't an ace :lol:
Is Blackpool actually a good holiday destination? I've always assumed that it was like a bigger version of Great Yarmouth (i.e. a dump).

The food one surprised me. What famous Paris food is there that isn't just French food? I considered New York (and also Napoli) for the pizza but went with Beijing for the duck and whatnot.

Cheddar, Kentucky, Melton Mowbray and Brussels were all good ideas too I thought.

I think its more the city of Paris, rather than a specific food. There are a few cities/regions with famous foods, but Paris has always been known as a food city.

Aye, depends how you read the question. A city with great food in general vs. a city with a food specific to it. It's fair enough. Sign of a good Sheep question I suppose.

It's a fucking shit hole.
It's the shithole where I had my stag do over 40 years ago. I don't remember anything much after Yates's - which in those days had sawdust on the floor.....unless it was the previous night's furniture.

Probably to soak up the piss from the night before

There are a few wrestlers that are billed as coming from Guardalajara, Mexico so that's why I went for that one.

Round 5 - Just your bang average, standard Sheep game.

Nothing special here. Not even a theme this time.

A cat
A Petrochemical
A household chore
A famous philosopher
A sex tape
A name that Sebastian Vettel has given one of his race cars.
A movie directed by Peter Jackson
A boxer
A supercar
Something you would keep secret.

Deadline: Friday 7pm

Me neither. But it still makes more sense than question 6.

Ah, plain old normal sheep. Happy with that.

Some of those questions though :crazy: I didn't even know that Vettel had names for his cars...
Oh well. Missed the last round but I'm determined to make the points now after just missing out in that earlier game. Bring it! :box:

(Watch me do crap now :dk:)

Munkiki spotted an error last night, which I have checked through and he is indeed correct and it affects the cup draw and two contestants.

My scoring went wrong, and I thought I corrected it all, but apparently missed a couple. Stevencc was given 12 extra points after a mishap, therefore they will now be removed from him which swaps him with Tom. Tom will now be in the cup and face Hooray whilst Steven will be in the plate, and face JJH.

Apologies for the mishap, and thanks to Munkiki for spotting it. 'Faaaaaaaaarce' etc...
