    "Alphabet Sheep is The Cadillac of Sheeps"

    Alphabet Sheep is just like regular sheep with a slight difference. There is only 1 question and 26 answers required.

    Example, if the question was makes of cars

    And you started off
    Avensis
    Bugatti
    Cadillac
    etc, you'd be playing the game properly.

    Template was very useful ;)

    Done.

    I may or may not have made up some names :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh


    Google allowed or not? Hard to think of names that start with q or x

    Sheep is most popular answer, right?

    Is Avensis not a model of car rather than a make? I would have said the make was Toyota.

    I'm confused now between this and Peehs :D We're trying to get the same answer as everyone else here right?

    Yep! Sheep is where you follow, Peehs is where you need to be unique!

    Perfect, thanks Necro!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 22,430 CMod ✭✭✭✭Pawwed Rig


    People's ages will make a big difference in this one as the fashionable names have changed down the years. Khaleesi for K for example might not be that obvious to the oldies.


    And bollix to that as I just thought of a much more obvious K than the one I submitted :(

    Just submitted, like this one. Definitely made up some names and thought I was real clever with one of them that I know won’t be counted :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,392 ✭✭✭LadySkunk


    Aw damn it I done it as peehs :o Going to have to submit a new one later


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    *double checks it's sheep*

    Ok yeah that should be fine. Not making that mistake again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,392 ✭✭✭LadySkunk


    Right I sorted my life out. Kept some of my peehs names as I couldn’t think of any others :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,994 ✭✭✭sullivlo


    I think my job gives me an advantage in this game.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Entered.

    Q1: Do same names of different spelling get collated together or separately?

    Eg, say it was boys' names, then would Eoin and Eoghan be together or separate?

    Q2: What about different variants of the same name?

    Eg, again, if it was boys, say: Robby and Robert, would they be together or separate?

    I had similar questions but couldn't figure out how to ask it without giving away girls names.

    I’m waiting for the answers to above :D


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional East Moderators, Regional North West Moderators Posts: 12,526 Mod ✭✭✭✭miamee


    Me too *checks list*


  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Same question!
    What about spelling differences?
    Such as, <snip> & <snip> etc

    Why does it matter? Just choose the one you think will be more common. If they are added together all the better :)

    The answers don't have to be girls names. They just have to be what everyone else picks so the names qb mentioned could well now be the top answer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,933 ✭✭✭daheff


    i'm in. this is where my list of girls names come in handy!!

    all the girls who said no :D

    Eoin and Eoghan will be collated together. As long as the intent is obvious, then yes, I group for what is essentially the same name. If you are concerned about potential groupings, do try to use a common spelling. It is sheep after all and research is allowed :)

    Robert and Robby would group. Robby and Bobby would not group

    Thats the risk he takes.

    For me personally, I'd never change my answers because what if I changed away from the overwhelming sheep and lost the game out of it.

    I'm more of a devil you know, rather than devil you don't kind of guy

    I found this strategy best just knock out the first answer the your head, although its also the worst strategy as I do come out with some woeful answers aswell :o

    Might try the fast as possible then spend a few minutes recapping in future
