Bit burnt out from running all the Tenable games and still got a few questions left over so thought why not put them all into one big sheep?
This will (probably) be the hardest and longest sheep in the history of POG.. to make it even more difficult a few rules:
- No research! If you don't know an answer, you'll just have to take a stab at it!
- Incorrect answers will score 0 points
There are only 10 correct answers for each question so even if you know all 10 answers you'll have to try figure out which one is most likely to sheep.. good luck!
