    (Shamelessly stolen from Rikand's orignal OP)

    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

    Gonna go for quite a few random, mixed bag questions to make it a bit of craic for the reveal...


    Questions:

    1. A member of the Simpson Family
    2. One of the 6 main characters from Friends
    3. A member of the Justice League
    4. A member of Westlife
    5. One of the 4 main houses in Game of Thrones
    6. A Thundercat
    7. A colour of a snooker ball
    8. A Sky Sports commentator or pundit
    9. A month of the year
    10. A season of the year
    11. A time of day
    12. An Irish president
    13. An American president
    14. A number one single by Bruce Springsteen
    15. A Forum Games poster with more than 100 posts in the forum

    RESEARCH IS ALLOWED
    NO DUPLICATE ANSWERS (no doubling up your answers)
    ANSWERS PMED TO ME IN THE USUAL WAY
    ALL ARBITRARY GAME MOD DECISIONS ARE FINAL

    Sign Ups open till next Friday, 30th April with reveal to take place that evening to keep y'all entertained for the beginning of the BH weekend.

    When you say The Simpson Family, is the question referring specifically to the tv show?

    I'm glad you mentioned that. Say you did give a Bruce Springsteen song as an answer, as opposed to some other artiste, would you get 0 points for a song that got to Number 1 in, say, Outer Mongolia? Or are you thinking of UK/USA/Ireland?

    I'll have a go at this (Google will be worn out by the end of my entry, I'm sure) - but too much sunshine to be enjoyed out there, so it won't be today :cool:

    I laughed at this but I should really be on Heidi’s side. Seems I’m not the only person on the planet with zero interest in the spate of superhero movies.

    I nearly said Marvel there but realised they’re DC and I’d be massacred :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,029 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    It was easy enough to find out what Justice League was/is (never even having heard of it before this game!)


    But it's a bit..... ephemeral, shall we say. It was far harder to figure out how to find out what wasn't Justice League :D
