Kangaroo! - A sheep game unlike any other

Rikand

Kangaroo is like sheep except your answers have to be factually wrong. If I ask for a comedy movie starring Tom Hanks then you could answer:

Cast Away (not a comedy)
Old School (not starring Tom Hanks)
Bosom Buddies (Not a movie)

you could also answer anything random like "Banana" or even "****er"

but the aim of the game is the same as sheep where you want to match others. This means answers like the first 3 are probably better than a totally random answer.

Anything that is correct scores 0 for the question.

Highest score wins.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask

Questions::

1. Name a roman numeral
2. Name a song by Taylor Swift
3. Name a sport played with a ball
4. Name a boards.ie forum moderator
5. Name an action movie starring Jason Statham
6. Name a popular ice-cream flavour
7. Name an alcoholic drink
8. Name a letter of the alphabet


RESEARCH IS ALLOWED
NO DUPLICATE ANSWERS
PM ME YOUR ANSWERS IN THE USUAL WAY
ALL ARBITRARY GAME MOD DECISIONS ARE FINAL


Sign-ups are due by Tuesday the 23rd of February at 23:59PM.

Reveal will hopefully take place on Wednesday the 24th of February at around 9:30pm-ish.

Good luck

I think for this game that's the only strategy that makes any sense.

I think Rikand is only running all these games so they can clean up at the prestigious end of year Forum Awards ceremony.

Not really planning... More, I haven't had time to send my PM yet :pac:

With some of these answers I'm either a genius or I belong in the School for the Deranged. I look forward to finding out which.

I think mine might suggest criminally insane more than anything else.

I'm not entirely sure I even understand the rules properly, but I've sent a list of 8 answers in...... what they're the answers to, well lets see......

Electric Nitwit

Done!

I'll be happy if three or more don't ace

ari101

I'm in! I had some fun finding answers, probably either not incorrect or too left of field, but sure we'll see who else is mad like me!

Sawduck

I'm hoping this game delivers some completely bonkers answers

HeidiHeidi

Well given that I had to google to find out what the right answers might be to one question, never having even heard of the subject of said question - the chances of me having a "right" wrong answer are fairly slim, I'd have said......


And now I've just given myself another headache thinking about that......

Anyone else think perhaps Rikand is using us as lab rats for some kind of psychological experiment? :pac: It's like some kind of reverse ink blot test - "say what you don't see"!

On top of that I think the results will somewhat depend on how well our senses of humour align.

dobman88

I've no idea what this form of the game means but I just sent 8 answers with the aim to have 8 unique answers. Nice format.

The reveal of this is going to be gas.

It's hard enough thinking of an answer that everyone else will go for too to get a SHEEP.
But to try & think of a wrong answer, that everyone else will go for aswel, now that's hard.

It'll be interesting if there are any SHEEPS in the game at all :pac:

I can see everyone getting 8 aces and it being a 30 way tie for the win.

That list was at that point on the 19th - I'm guessing you have sent yours in since then. Others have since. That's normal enough in Forum Games Land!
