    A new year, a new Alphabet Sheep!!

    The premise of Sheep is very simple - I give you a topic and you PM me the answers based on what you think the most popular answer will be.

    However....

    I have selected a band OR artist in each of the letters. If you match with me...

    You score....


    ZERO

    The format for newcomers...

    I will present to you a list of the letters of the alphabet and all you have to do is PM me back your list, unnumbered, and unlettered. DO NOT post your list on thread

    The topic of this sheep is Bands & Artists - PM me a list of your answers in alphabetical order.

    Use the below as a template:

    Do we get any clues? Have you picked obvious ones? :D

    Nope, no clues. To avoid my traps you have to think like me....

    A terrifying thought I realise :D:D

    I had a feeling you'd say that :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,875 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    OK, I think I have an idea on what to avoid for the letter G.
    On a separate note, I am tempted to attempt getting a peehs in every single answer :D

    Its easy to get a Peehs when everyone else is attempting to Sheep though. All you're doing is saving someone else from getting the spoon.

    Trying to hit every trap would be a much harder way to be crap ;)

    I was so focused on dodging traps that I was also dodging Sheep left and right... I also probably should've thought about all my choices a bit more rather than going for the first name that wasn't glaringly obvious that popped into my head...

    Oh well, whatever happens happens, I sent answers in and that's all that matters...

    My name is included already because I pre-chose the traps so there could be no bias or influence guiding my decisions.

    Did I choose the sheep, did I choose something off the wall...

    Only time will tell :P

    I'm in.
    You are a machine, Necs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    I've joined my very first one of these... eek...


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 50,753 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Just had a query by PM and I forgot to put it in the OP.

    As it's Sheep you can do all the research you like :D

    Also welcome to the madness of Sheep Omack :D

    In

    My tactic if putting in the first artist that popped into my head won't do well I'm thinking,

    Oh well someone needs to get the wooden spoon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I'll need to leave a trail of breadcrumbs to get back out of your head if I have to go in & think like you.

    if I havent hit at least 10 traps, I'll be disappointed

    Can already see the theme of the person hitting the most traps being the peoples champion :pac:

    Thinking the same as Necro doesn't make you any sort of champion :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,875 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    well, based on previous competitions, walruses etc. I thought there were a couple of very obvious traps that I avoided it.
    But I don't see me scoring too many sheep anyway - though I don't expect too many high sheep.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,540 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    There's me, running to victory, avoiding all the traps...
