This is a game of Sheep. In the game of sheep, you are trying to guess the most popular answer. The more people that match your answer, the better your score.

There are two twists to this game that make it a discuss-amongst-yourselves BOMB sheep:

1) Unlike your average sheep game you may discuss answers in this thread. You may deploy any levelling tactics you wish. You can work collaboratively if you think your fellow competitors will actually be working with you. LOL you though if you think that.

There are no resubmits in this game. Once you send an entry, you're locked in. So you might as well spend the remaining time sowing confusion and dissension.

2) Each question has a BOMB answer. It's my sheep, I'm planting the bombs. I will choose the answer I think will be the sheep for each question and anyone that matches the bomb answer scores 0 for that question.

I have selected the bomb answers. If needed for game integrity I can PM them to a non-participant.

Your 10 questions:
1. A musical artist
2. The greatest movie of all time
3. A European capital city
4. A game played on POG
5. A country associated with great food
6. A primary color
7. A living U.S. President
8. A board game you can play as a family
9. A pizza topping
10. A POGger with more than 20,000 posts

To enter, send me a list of your answers by PM, preferably unnumbered and single spaced. Deadline for entries is 7:00 pm server time on Monday, October 15 with reveal to follow assuming I've got a computer somewhere that will run DarkMagus's sheep scorer.

This may prove to be a terrible idea but what the hell.

In.
Happy to talk answers whenever.

It's Booker. Just submit what you would normally submit, and you won't match anything.

I love this idea. And in.

I have submitted my answers. You will all subconsciously go ahead & match my answers & make me the winner. TIA.

I am interested in whether Booker made up his own sheep bomb answers as he would in a normal sheep game, or whether he factored in that this was a bomb game, and his sheeps are all intended to be #2 picks, this making picking #1 the correct strategy.

You assume he knows the 1st OR second best answer. =)

In with 10 bombs

In, submitted locked in.

icwudt. that question will require a full night of running sims.

1. Eminem
2. Airplane!
3. London
4. SHEEP
5. Thailand
6. Red
7. George W. Bush
8. Scrabble
9. Ham
10. Eyebooger

This will be my entry... or will it? < reverse psychology perhaps? Or reverse reverse psychology, making everyone think I won't submit that but actually will, but actually won't but then I will

"this sheep is bomb af"

that's how the kids these days talk

also, i hope he didn't bomb taytay. she is several of my answers

In and played it like a HEEP

Ask me about a specific question and ask for SHEEP or HEEP and I'll tell you truthfully what I think.

Only the first 3 to ask get what they ask for

What do you think the sheep is for #8? (Sheep under standard rules obv)

Going to need at least a couple more entries to reveal tomorrow night.

I'll respond to that.

The sheep is Monopoly.

I think you'll get more than the usual number of late entries due to the format

Yeah that makes sense. There have been a few sheep questions about board games for kids that I've screwed up in the past. This question is a little different, though.

In. Somewhere between 0-10 of these are my actual answers. (Not inclusive)

1. Taylor Swift
2. The Godfather II
3. Paris
4. Werewolf
5. USA #1
6. Blue
7. Obama
8. Life
9. Mushrooms
10. Xander Biscuits

I'm not sure how the discussion will impact this particular format, but this had made me realize allowing discussion should be standard in HEEP. There's no risk, it can't be made any worse by it.

Monopoly

Here are between 9 and 10 out of 10 of my answers...

1.Justin Beiber
2. Citizen Kane
3. Paris
4. Codenames
5. France
6. Blue
7. Obama
8. Risk
9. Pepperoni
10. JM3

This has given me an idea for a heep variant.

Normal heep rules, except:

1. When players enter, they MUST also post their answers in the thread, with the option of changing (say) up to three answers from what they actually submitted.

2. The entry window closes. At that point, players who submitted a list can re-submit a new entry if they choose.

This is, of course, a dumb idea for a game, but heep is already a dumb game

Is this variant more, less, or equally terrible when compared to normal heep?

it requires more participation/time from people and so that's a negative, but I'll play pretty much anything so count me in

if booker bombs paris im gonna be heartbroken.
