This is Peehs (Reverse Sheep).

There is one question for each of the first sixteen weeks of the season, plus a handful of questions for the end of the season. Since this is Reverse Sheep, which requires answers to be correct, we can't score a question until the completion of that week. Thus, we will reveal the answers for one question after each week of the 2012-2013 NFL season, plus the final set of questions at the conclusion of the regular season.

Nath has volunteered to run a $20 pool. If you are interested, please vote in the poll. Nath will handle all the money and running of the pool, if there is enough interest.

Rules:

• You want to give the answer that you think will be given least often by other people, but is still correct.
• You get one point for every person that gives the same answer as you, including yourself. For example, if you and ten other people said Tim Tebow, all eleven of you would get 11 points.
• Incorrect answers are scored using the Fleebrog Method: (Score of most popular answer FOR THAT QUESTION) + (Number of correct possible responses that at least one player put FOR THAT QUESTION)
• Lowest score wins
• Research is allowed
• Do not discuss these answers ITT or anywhere else

Submit all answers via PM in an unnumbered list to me. Double space the list. Don't list the questions, just your answers. LIKE THIS:

ANSWERONE
ANSWERTWO
ANSWERTHREE

ETC

Anyone who screws up when sending me the list will start with a 25-point penalty.

PM me your answers by the start of the first game (Wednesday Sept 5 at 8:30 PM EST).

Oh I get it. So for like question 2 we need to have a correct answer and obv this won't be known until then, right?

Double space each answer? Is your an example a violation, lol?

yea i dont get it your 'example' isnt double spaced...can you clarify? would be kinda ridic to copy your example and then get penalized.

Oops, it is supposed to say "don't double space it", but it is too late to edit. If a mod could edit that, I'd appreciate it.

Jeremy fail.

So for question 1, let's say 2 playoff teams lose in week one. 17 people vote for team A that lost. 6 people vote for team B that lost. 52 people vote for the 6 other playoff teams and all 6 of those teams win. Those who chose Team B are the winners?

Pretty sure they both win...

I'm in. Would be in for $20 because why not. Would need to set up a paypal account tho to ship manies.

The people who said team A get 17 points.

The people who said team B get 6 points.

The people who said all other teams (incorrect answer) get 19 points.

But you want the least number possible, right? So, while they were both "right" answers, it was better to pick the option with 6 rather than 17. The only way to truly "win" the question (ie not lose ground to the field) is to pick the best answer (lowest #).

Yes. You want to pick answers that are correct but unique. The game is half knowledge/predictions and half "what level are your opponents thinking on".

We can join and not enter the pool or no?

That's right. Lowest score wins. You are trying to give the most unique answer that is also factually correct.
Yes, nobody is required to play in the pool. We're just gonna figure out who's interested, and if enough people are interested, we'll score those answers separately for the money pool.

bump

in

bump, doesn't seem to be any interest in doing this for money so we can scrap that, but i'd like to get a decent turnout together.

in, somwewhat hasty entry

in!!

bump again since i just advertised it

season starts in two days, get your answers in

Word. Gonna send in my entry sometime tonight or tomorrow.

Also, any interest in a survivor pool? I'd be game to run it if no one else wants the responsibility...

In. Can't wait for Week 1 ties that make it possible for 0 playoff teams to lose.

Revealing every week or all at end?

I prefer every week heh

Sent. Didn't fill out the end of season / playoff ones yet, which looking at it now I probably should have. Will send those shortly.

I'm also assuming we can use the same team/player for multiple answers, correct? I looked and saw nothing against it.

Bump!

Come on man you know how sheep works, one list, not numbered

I don't see why not
The questions that say "Name a player/team/event ... after week X" will be revealed after week X. The questions about season totals will be revealed at the end of the season.

Yea, I resent a full not-numbered list. I didn't bother reading the end of year/ playoff questions and for some reason just assumed we wouldn't fill those out unless we made the top 10 or whatever in the regular season.

Came back and read them, realized we needed to fill them out and resent.
