Sheep - a forum game

[Spirederman]

Same here. Hence Franco and Rogen.

Never even considered character duos.

Even though I went for their real names, I'm surprised no one who went for characters answered Wayne and Garth.

An ace in the last question doesn't stop LR from claiming Round 2. This Charming Mike is runner-up while Krazy8 takes third.

Richard Cranium follows up Round 1's second place finish with fifth here to lead the overall table (I'll post that up in a min).

[StagsForLife]

Respectable for my first go!

 

[SUTSS]

How have I not finished bottom here?

 

[Krazy8]

2 Swindon fans on the podium! Well done Mike

 

[Oaf]

Mid table mediocrity it is, then.

 

[markpvfc]

I had the Nevilles and Batman & Robin typed in as answers, then changed them to aces. Oh well at least I hung on to a few points

 

[Rammy]

Mid table mediocrity it is, then.

Best place to be.

 

[Veggie Legs]

Even though I went for their real names, I'm surprised no one who went for characters answered Wayne and Garth.

I strongly considered it, but I thought my actual answer would be better. Clearly I was mistaken.

The overall standings:

 

[MagpieBee]

Changed off a couple of top answers. Nevilles, North/South, Simpsons.

Lame. Terrible round.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Can't grumble after 2 rounds!

 

[Krazy8]



We're taking over.......slowly but surely

 

[Stagat]

Big fan of the 'preview' posts to create suspense by the way Munks, great addition.

Yup, me too. Apart from the Ken 'n' Deirdre one Munks, you utter swine.

 

[Hooray]

Amazed Hot & Cold scored so low!

Decent tally of points though to get off the mark for the season

 

[MSB92]

As expected

 

[Smally]

Lower mid table again. I'm Villa

 

[Munkiki]

Before I put up Game 3, here is what's going on in the cup/plate.

38 players currently so you've been split into 4 groups of 6 and 2 of 7. The 23 having picked up points were seeded, the rest randomly drawn.

Your scores will be added up over Games 3 & 4. The six finishing bottom of their groups will be eliminated. The top two from each group and the four highest scoring third-placed players will qualify for the cup. The remaining 16 will enter the plate. (If the number of entrants increases, say 38+n, the 6 bottom placed players plus the n lowest scoring players will be eliminated)

Then it's straight knock-out: Game 5 - round of 16, Game 6 - quarter finals, Game 7 - semi finals, Game 8 - final.

The groups...

 

[Munkiki]

Game 3 – 25/25/25/25
As the name suggests, for each of these questions you only have four choices. Does that make it easier? Probably not, actually...

a season of the year
a grand slam tennis tournament
a suit of playing cards
a basic mathematical operation
a month with 30 days
a country that borders Greece
a cardinal direction on a compass
a railway station on Monopoly (standard UK edition)
a gospel from the New Testament
a ninja turtle

Deadline is Thursday 4pm.

 

[StagsForLife]

Five Guys are reunited.. Partially!

 

[Rammy]

Group of Death.

 

[StagsForLife]

Is it based on points scored e.g 108 or is the 25, 18... point system still in place?

 

[Munkiki]

Points scored.

The 25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1 points are purely for the league table.

 

[SALTIRE]

Five Guys are reunited.. Partially!

I would have joined in but I thought the first round in this game was just a bonus round, I wasn't expecting it to be a full on season it appears - oh well nvm!

 

[Hooray]

I reckon we'll see a few perfect rounds with those questions.

 

[Ciderhead]

Was going well until the damn Simpsons

Very much out of form at the minute, but I'm going to come out and say if I don't score some decent points in this round then I've truly lost my touch

The table appears to be upside down.

 

[markpvfc]

Quite a few of those answers seemed obvious, so they'll probably turn out to be the lowest scoring options.

 

[Spirederman]

Quietly confident from Q1-7.

Q8-10 have to potential to absolutely fucking ruin me.
