I can't believe John Deacon and John Paul Jones only got 1 each and that Lemmy got 3.

By the way, Ronnie Wood and James Taylor (if it is the singer/songwriter) are not bassists!

You might say sheep are Collin to the Moon while bubblypop may as well have named Tim Allen. *chuckles quietly at own cleverness*

No wrong answers in sheep

In my defence he (Ronnie Wood) is a bass player, he just happens to play guitar more frequently. (I may have forgotten that Bill Wyman existed

But he wouldn't have scored any better as it turns out)

Reberetta · 26-03-2020 2:35pm

Maz does it again. Gandhi isn't on the cover but no wrong answers in sheep.

You could say Strawberry Milkshake's chances have gone south rather than West whilst it's the fall of the house of Necro.

Yes some, after every few rounds or so. I have to add up manually cause sheepulator is not for chromebook, or even if it is, I haven't got round to installing it yet anyway. If anyone spots any mistakes let me know.
