Hi Everyone,

Not sure if this has been played here before but thought we could mabye give it a go. If you want to play just post in the forum and pm me your answers. Once I have enough players I will let everyone know that I will close the game but people will still be able to join within 24 hours or so after that. I will post the reveal sometime after which will give us our super sheep winner

This will just be a normal sheep game, if it takes off in future the host can throw in a few reverse sheep questions to mix it up a little which is a bit more complicated and the scoring system is a little different. In a normal sheep game there are no wrong answers, in theory players with a wrong answer can get top points if the majority also agree with them.

You can research all you want but no colluding (its a fun game)

If you don't know how to you play see rules below See Below.

The winner is the player with the Highest Score (in a normal sheep game)

The way to win is to try and think like everyone else and give the same answer as the majority, try and think what the most popular answer would be!

If the question was "Name a film starring Tom Cruise - You would try and think what everyone else was thinking and choose something like Top Gun (this wont be so easy with some of the questions I will be posting)

When you have all pm'd me yours answers the results could be like the following:

NoShoes, sldawgs and middle pm "Top Gun"
Batman and Knarf pm "Jerry Maguire"
Sela pm "Collateral"

NoShoes, sldawgs and middle get + 3 points as their answer was matched in total by 3 people
Batman and Knarf get + 2 points
Sela gets nada (sorry dude its an only an example)

In a reverse question its the opposite, you try and not give the same answer as everyone else and this can be a little tricky as everyone else is wanting to do the same thing. The scoring system for all questions would need to be changed to more of a golf type scoring system and if an answer is deemed incorrect its up to the majority of the group to allow it or not. We are not playing reverse so its fine not to talk about it too much.

Questions are:

1 - A film directed by Akira Kurosawa
2 - A character from the Lord of Rings trilogy (Gandalf and Frodo are 0 points)
3 - A Pixar Film
4 - Biggest prequel or sequel disappointment in film history
5 - Comic book hero to hit the big screen (superman, batman and spiderman are 0 points)
6 -A David Lynch Film
7 - A film based on a Saturday Night Live sketch
8 - Coolest Bond Villian (Jaws is 0 points)
9 - A film directed by Clint Eastwood in which he does not act

Not done this before so hopefully i have not screwed anything up but hey its all fun

Sounds fun, I'm in.

Just to be clear, in numbers 2, 5, and 8, the "0 point" answers are automatically disqualified, correct?
