    Welcome to a very special 2021 edition of 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....

    Is there a prize for the person who hits the most traps? Asking for a friend.

    Not a prize per se.... though they would win the 'hive mind with Necro' award for sure. :D:D

    I'd like to welcome new players SineadSpears and Omackeral to the sheeping world.

    I think Seph, cee_jay and cj maxx have played before but possibly not one of my own sheep - you're all very welcome also.

    To the rest of you folks, thanks for signing up again - game wouldn't be as fun as it is without so many sheepaholics!!

    It has happened on occasion when a new player comes in and takes the win in their first game.

    Will it happen again here? Well we will soon find out :)

    Thanks for the welcome! Question if you don't mind? Have you laid traps for all letters or just a select few?

    Ok Sign Ups are done and dusted.

    I can reveal that people have been trapped on all but THREE letters.

    Some were itty bitty traps... others though :pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:

    This is gonna be fun.

    Just making sure the Sheepulator is fully correct and we can get rolling...
