    It's an alphabet sheep game, but like the woman who married her first boyfriend - there's no ex*.

    So 25 letters:

    A
    B
    C
    D
    E
    F
    G
    H
    I
    J
    K
    L
    M
    N
    O
    P
    Q
    R
    S
    T
    U
    V
    W
    Y
    Z

    Deadline for entries will be Monday 12th August and I'll do the reveal during that week.

    Entries via PM.

    No need to number/letter them - a simple list will suffice. For example:
    Alpha
    Bravo
    Charlie

    and not:
    A: Alpha
    B: Bravo
    C: Charlie

    or:
    1: Alpha
    2: Bravo
    3: Charlie

    etc.

    As it is Peehs, you're looking for the most obscure answer. Google is not allowed.

    To quote Richard Osman: As always by 'country' we mean the sovereign state that's a member of the UN in its own right.

    Wrong answers will score 1.5X the highest score.

    Good luck :)

    *no countries begin with the letter X

    That was gonna be my first question :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,284 ✭✭✭✭Deja Boo


    Would you mind reminding me, peehs is ...where we try to outguess each other, for the country we think people won't choose - is that right???

    I've never really gotten the peehs part :o ...not that I get the sheep part, as the wooden spoon seems to be a Boo magnet! :eek: :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    yes B00, Peehs is looking for the most obscure correct answer that the least people go for.

    You sure X is the only one that doesn't have a country? There's another that I'm seriously struggling to think of ANY answer for :(

    I got at least 2 countries for each letter...the joys of playing many years of football manager

    I had trouble thinking of one for a letter too. Guessed it in the end.

    If google is not allowed, does that mean I am also not allowed to watch that Animaniacs video ? :)

    Might cause confusion


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 894 ✭✭✭Corkgirl18


    Is there definitely a sovereign state for all of those letters? I have my doubts for one of them. :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,284 ✭✭✭✭Deja Boo


    Emm :o just not something my simple brain is capable of :o

    ...but will enjoy the reveal! :D :pac:

    Yeah, can only think of one territory for one letter, but it's definitely not an independent country.

    Sorry, I should have been clearer, I believe there's one from the list above, in addition to X. Of course I could be wrong. :)

    Of course I could also be wrong
