Open Side Menu Go to the Top

I got the idea for this from filthy's suggestion in the Mediocre sheep postgame. Here's how it works:

The object is to end up with the LOWEST sheep score, but WITHOUT getting any aces. If you score an ace, you are OUT, you get nothing, you lose, good day Sir!

(though your answers will continue to count for the scores on remaining questions)

So obviously a deuce is the ideal score, but remember strategy might be some levelly who knows what stuff. Just play it, and see what happens.

Questions:
  1. A South American country
  2. A TV sitcom
  3. A current or former athlete who plays or played for a professional New York team
  4. A food that is white
  5. A board game
  6. A classical composer
  7. An animal that lives in the woods
  8. A famous Matt or Matthew
  9. A Christmas decoration
  10. Something associated with the beach that begins with the letter S


Got it? Good.

PM an unnumbered list of answers to me.

We'll say Thursday night deadline and reveal.

this game's strat is heavily dependent on # of entrants. i think you ought to put a hard cap on # of players that can enter.

I think the more players that enter, the better

I would estimate ~30 based on recent participation

Id rather see a floor than a cap. Or both.

Point taken on knowing the number of entries

We'll do a floor of 35 (that's how many mediocre got, so hopefully we can hit that) and a cap of 45.

Now gogogogogo.

In peehs I think you always try to think of the most obscure correct answer you know. Field size may make a difference a far as reaching for an answer you're not sure about.

This game, it's more crucial. Should hit the stated range at this pace.
