That's the bonus for running the round though mate. You also score your average for the entire season for the round you ran, so should really be worked out on averages. See my edited post above.

Yeah fair enough Ill change it I just couldnt think of a way of carrying the average across each round (because some rounds are low scoring, some high etc). Maybe 169/109 divided by the average score for the 1st/2nd round, and multiplied by the average score for this round? What bonus would I add though?

You wouldn't add one, from my point of view, as the bonus is added to the final/overall table at the end, and has no bearing on the scores of each individual round, if you see where I'm coming from??

Perhaps the fairest way would be to take the top score from the round you ran(as who knows, you may have also got the top score and won the round if someone else was hosting it), add that to your your other 2 scores of 109 and 169, and take the average of those 3??

I don't wanna be the only one pushing this though, and would like to hear what others think is the fairest way of doing it.

I am top of the league say I am top of the league.

Probably where my plummet starts

 

[MagpieBee]

Really not confident for this next round...

 

[Posh Hammer]

Is this a ten game season?

If so, why are we starting the cup already?

You've got the overall leader board showing a 10 game season.

My mistake, its because I copied it from the round scoring where there are 10 questions. I've edited it now

FAO Spirederman, I've changed my cup score to 200. I did 1st Round Score/1st Round Average, 2nd Round Score/2nd Round Average. I took an average of these 2 figures, and then multiplied by the average score for this round to get 200.4... Is that OK? Seems about right to me, lower midtable

That's fairer that way mate. I feel like a right pedant picking you up on it, and that wasn't the case at all. Was just trying to think of a fairer way to score the round.

well I'm screwed for the cup when my averages are worked out xD

Yeah fair enough, I really didn't deserve 229.5

 

[last request]

Well fuck me. One question screwed me up in that last round... the fucking trains one. Nobody would have called that being so one sided toward Virgin trains. I got an ace with cross country. Virgin got 35 points... 35 points on top of what I had would have had me joint first. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. This is why I don't play sheep often.

 

[Oaf]

Be quiet Jinder.

And hahahaha, a robin sig? ROBIN?! Who picks Robin over Batman? Only a true Jinder would do such a thing.

 

[last request]

It's paying tribute to my character in TFF's NOTW: Superheroes.

Robin > Jar Jar Binks.

 

[Oaf]

... That's like, one of six people or whatever where Robin could get on the left hand side of the > sign.

Working my way through results but seems to be slow working, unless anyone has any suggestions on how to do it quicker?

[Rammy]

Using the Sheep software seems to be the quick way of doing it. Not sure if the link is still around that used to be in the thread on TFF?

 

[Don Tonberry]

Don't forget my answers hodge!

 

[hodge]

Thoughts everyone, I got a PM of answers from Don Tonberry through literally just before I posted those answers, so after 5pm but before I posted answers, should I add theirs on or do people reckon too late as after deadline I set?

 

[Oaf]

Oh fuck you all.

Bring on round 5!

 

[This Charming Mike]

Don's a Sheep regular, add them on!

If his answer for the first one was Thatcher, then by all means add him in.

If not, it's all his fault and he should have to sit it out.

 

[This Charming Mike]

Amazed so many people put Tony Blair ahead of the our greatest PM in Churchill.

Was between Blair and Churchill for me. Had a feeling we had this question before though, with Blair coming out on top.

 

[Don Tonberry]

I was only a few minutes late and hadn't seen any answers!

Blair seemed the obvious one to go for seeing as he was the most prominent PM of most of our lives given the average age group of users here. I know I've fucked up elsewhere, though.

Ah, so it was one of those where people who play this regularly have an advantage? Good.

So long as I have something to blame it on, I'm happy.

(But yes, seriously, add Don in)
