Picture PEEHS - Sport Stars

Just fired my entry in there. Not a great outing but I got ten answers and only had to guess for one category on the basis that I only knew who person A was but everybody knows who person A is so I took a shot in the dark and guessed that person b was well-known enough to be included even though I couldn't tell you if they were one of the eight listed.

Cheers for the entry. Not going to be online much till Monday but I think we are up to 14 now

lassykk

Think we are up to seventeen. Still plenty of time for more entries though!

Just had a chance to take a look at the entries since last Wednesday and we are indeed up to 17.

Very tight at the top as things stand but the wooden spoon is not remotely in doubt as things stand

So far we have

- Soccer - 3 aces and 1 unidentified - most selected has 5 votes

- Motorsport - 1 ace and 2 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Snooker - 4 aces and 0 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Tennis - 0 aces and 2 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Darts - 3 aces and 1 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Athletics - 2 aces and 1 unidentified - most selected has 5 votes

- GAA - 2 aces and 2 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Boxing - 3 aces and 2 unidentified - most selected has 5 votes

- Rugby - 2 aces and 1 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Golf - 0 aces and 2 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

I must say the selections have really intrigued me. Only one of my obscure picks has been selected which doesn't shock me as some of them are very tricky

There have been 10 incorrect answers so far too.

Plenty of time for more entries too

OK to enter this now?

Fired an entry in there. I think I did well with most of them. Cheers for running lassy.

Up to 19 entries

We have fallen from 14 unidentified pictures to 10
We have moved from 20 aces to 21

Keep them coming

Exceptionally tight at the top of the leader board. 2 points separate the top 3 as things stand.

Still no competition for the wooden spoon

Do spelling mistakes matter?

Not at all. Some people even went with first names where they are known by that which was fine too.

I don't know how to spell a few of them myself!

Some cracking selections in the last few has seen a lot of the unidentified ones disappear

So far we have

- Soccer - 3 aces and 0 unidentified - most selected has 6 votes

- Motorsport - 1 ace and 1 unidentified - most selected has 6 votes

- Snooker - 1 ace and 0 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Tennis - 2 aces and 0 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Darts - 1 ace and 0 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Athletics - 3 aces and 0 unidentified - most selected has 7 votes

- Boxing - 4 aces and 1 unidentified - most selected has 7 votes

- Rugby - 2 aces and 0 unidentified - most selected has 4 votes

- Golf - 2 aces and 0 unidentified - most selected has 6 votes

The number of incorrect answers currently stands at 9 with one category leading the way with 3 incorrect, the category I would struggle most with myself.

Of the 3 unidentified pictures left I would reckon one is obvious, one is obscure and one is really obscure.

Plenty of time for more entries too - Not sure when I will wrap this up but will give plenty of notice for when I'm doing the reveal.

I actually knew all of the darts players but trying to decide which would be the least known was extremely difficult.

If someone else had done this I wouldn't have known from a picture only

- 3 of the motorsports
- 1 of the darts
- maybe 1 of the tennis but would have had a good guess
- 1 of the snooker I'd have been on the fence
- 2 of the golf
- 2 of the GAA
- 3 of the rugby

Out of 80 pics, there's around 26 people I don't know for 100% certain. 16 of them in golf, GAA and darts. By the way, WWE is more of a sport than darts. :P

I will definitely run another one and will have WWE as an option. It's scripted so I can't agree to it being a sport but it is entertaining

Darts player v Undertaker in a no-holds barred cage match? No contest.

I'm not great on motorsport either. I'm not going to win, I'm just looking for mediocrity as is customary for a Newcastle United fan.

I dunno there's couple of lads in the darts who could give Rikishi a run for his money size wise

I've no interest at all in Gaelic Football and limited interest in Golf & Rugby but the others are sports I enjoy and would follow a bit.

Some people, who shall remain nameless, have made one or two (or ten) alterations to their selections so feel free to send on a revised list

I have some regrets but I'm far too lazy to resubmit. When will the reveal be?
