It's a little late but howzabout an

reveal?

Emu is the game that takes 20 seconds to play but a lifetime to master. Emu is a sheep game. Like a regular sheep, you are trying to guess the most popular answer to each question. The twist, and what makes the game an EMU is that if you correctly guess the sheep (most popular answer) for all of the questions, you score ZERO for the game, finish in last place and get the same level of respect as fat people who buy a gym membership and then stop going by January 3.

Your Monday Night Emu questions:

1. Name a component of the modern pentathalon
2. Name an actor or actress who appeared in The Godfather
3. Name one of the five human senses
4. Name a musician or singer that died in 2016

This reveal is going to be quicker than usual, so lettuce go!

Wow, I expected to sheep on 2 and 4, but figured 1 and/or 3 would miss.

Ah, well. Congrats to the podium and thanks for running, BW.
