    No one picked Mary from John and Mary in Father Ted either :(

    Mary from that Gas Networks Ireland ad with Daniel O'Donnell did cross my mind :D

    Wohoo , that was much better than I thought !
    I honestly thought no one else would have picked Mary Black .

    Although Mary Poppins was a brilliant choice (raging I never thought of it tbh !)

    Ok so I didn't score too badly but I am utterly ashamed for not thinking of Mary Robinson, whom I really admire. Her name didn't even enter my head. :o

    I almost went with Mary J Blige but was hoping more people would keep up the Biblical theme.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk


    OK folks, all the answers are in!

    Well this was more controversial than I thought it would be :p

    A few answers given. One of these sheeped, one aced. Who did you go for?

    I will do the reveal at 5pm

    No changes now, so feel free to run with Strawbs suggestion :)

    I guess the reveal has taken place, but until I saw this post I hadn't thought of another Mary. This could be badd......

    Ok that wasn't too bad. After the whole Jesus, Mary and Joseph Yesterday, I was sure magdelen would be top of people's minds.

    I'm glad I didn't try to think it through though.

    That was an epic fail, I should have kept my quiet confidence more quiet :D


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


    Wasn't at all sure about this one. Robinson, Black and Poppins were my top 3 picks but it was really hard to guess at what might sheep


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,896 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    Mary Berry :eek::eek::eek:

    Oh god how did I not think of Mary Berry :o

    I did, now to scroll to the reveal and see what happened


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,896 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    5 points, I'm happy could have been going for Bloody Mary or Mary Mary quite contrary :)

    I think we have started a tradition now to abuse a sheep game mod.

    Lol !!

    I meant when I picked her I thought ok , she's well known , then I read the thread and saw posts with The Four/Five Marys and thought oh no , no one else will have picked her !

    If any of that makes sense , if not , I just suck at sheep :pac:

    Was gonna go with Robinson but I thought our younger demographic would go with McAleese so I went there.

    That's exactly what I did. You just can't trust the youth of today.

    At least he wasn't watching me the whole time if he thinks I am only a bit of one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 343 ✭✭Siobh73


    Ok, I'll take the 5 points although my first instinct was Mary Black. I was thinking more global fame than just national fame so discounted the 2 presidents. Will go back to first instincts tomorrow for the much easier question to come.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 42,079 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    The two Presidents didn’t even enter my head for this. Also it’s the first time I haven’t sheeped so far.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,560 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Like I said to EN, Mary Robinson is THE BEST Mary. (Apart from me obvs) :)

    I wavered between Robinson, McAleese, J Blige and Poppins. That was a really tough choice!

    Question 11: Name a company famous for their Christmas adverts

    And on the subject of Christmas adverts - get even more into the Forum Games Christmas spirit this year with The Werewolf Nightmare Before Christmas game. I endorse this message ;)

    Asking for a friend....

    Okay I've gone for my 1st thought this time, but I have a feeling my 2nd thought will do better. Jez EN, what are you doing to me.

    It's the uncertainty that gets you...

    I'm just glad people started throwing out names of Mary's late in the day yesterday or I definitely would have flipped.
