well it's the highest average rating so i think it would be something like the most average viewers per episode which would work out to be most total viewers per year indirectly because the season is basically the same for all the shows. so if you're wondering if something like the Superbowl is eligible for this, no it's not.
huh? aren't there many shows that run once per week and many that run every day? what i gather from your response is that while a daily show might have the most overall viewers, it won't be rated highly unless it has a high viewers/episode average.

right, i believe the answer would be highest average viewers per episode.

I do pretty close to this.

I look up answers where I'm taking a wild guess or am not sure if my answer meets a threshold. From TP two examples are the Opera question and 10M box office.

I usually end up missing at least one or two that I felt good about and didn't bother to look up because I thought it was good for sure (Gail Devers winning a medal in 3 games for example).

deadline might be friday afternoon, or it might not be. i'm just saying i reserve the right to close entries tomorrow afternoon so you've been warned.

not that this would necessarily matter, but does anyone have strong preference on what day for the reveal?

55 so far

Very nice questions AJ. I took a few shots and whiffed on at least 3 questions but have several other good answers.

Friday's arent Friday's without a sheep reveal!

About looking up answers, I usually do it before I submit. Oh, did I say that out loud?

But nah, I'll usually look up the ones I'm unsure about, which is usually 20-30% of the Q's. Would be more exciting to wait for the reveal, but I can't help myself.

u just posted them tues/wed...too short for league game to reveal already...they are supposed to have 5 days to submit

still think 3 days isn't long enough for league game (unless all of the league regulars have submitted)

with 55 in I imagine that's almost everybody

I think 55 is right around the record. amazing how popular reverse sheep has become

The Trivial Pursuit reverse sheep had 59. As the mod of that one, I can tell you I wouldn't want to do anything much bigger than that. I think 40-50 is the sweet spot for reverse sheep. It's enough to get a good range of answers without becoming too unwieldy.

Damn. We were hoping you wouldn't submit and give the rest of us a chance.

I'm expecting 5 uniques, 5 good answers, 5 standard answers and 1 miss.
