    The Reveal for Things in the home HEEPS will begin here at 7pm today.


    In this game, the most popular answer scores 0. If the most popular answer is tied, they each score 0.
    2nd most popular answer is the HEEP and if you find a heep, you gain bonus points. Heep score is worth 1.5 x value.
    All other scores gain the 1 x value.


    A reminder of the questions;
    1) Name a cooking utensil.
    2) Name something that you would store in the fridge.
    3) Name something with legs, you could find in a kitchen.
    4) Name something that can be found in the press under the sink.
    5) Name a size of bed.
    6) Name something that can be hung up.
    7) Name something found in a bedroom drawer.
    8) Name something that can be found on or above a mantelpiece.
    9) Name a piece of furniture that can be found in a sitting room.
    10) How many mains 3 pin wall sockets are in a typical sitting room?
    11) How many toilets is the perfect number of toilets for a house?
    During the reveal, if you feel your answer should be grouped, where it is not, speak up and say so. If I feel the request is just, or even just well supported, I may allow it.

    I'm not sure I realised this was a HEEPS rather than a PEEHS but I'm not sure if it would have made a difference either way.

    I usually do terribly in these home items games every game so I'm expecting no different here :D
