    Will there be traps?

    After sending 3 different sets of answers - sorry Rikand :D - I'm finally happy with my submission

    Looking forward to all my efforts being rewarded with mid-table mediocrity as usual

    A lot of crossing out and changing answers later, then changing answers I was very happy with cos of other answers I couldn't get......finally, I am in!

    Lots of aces I'm sure!

    It's trickier than it looks, at first glance.

    I haven't been on many of these threads, but even if I come bottom of the class :D I must say I had fun doing the list!

    That was different! I confused myself with different systems to make sure I got the letters, then remembered it was sheep so god knows... but was good fun filling it out!

    Entry in. Brain melted. Can't guess how the scoring will work with this. Look forward to the reveal thread and seeing peoples explanations and systems for picking answers.

    Systems?



    SYSTEMS??? :eek:


    I started off all "this is a SHEEP, lets go for nice well-known answers".



    By the finish, I was substituting all over the shop, just to shoehorn an answer, any answer into the more awkward letters.


    Nightmare!

    I'm in and I feel really confident. This always happens, I presume midtable obscurity awaits!

    Mid table obscurity is what this forum is all about!:D

    Had to use the sort function in Excel, making this feel like work

    I did the same. It was then I realised that I had two letters left!

    But if you win, just think about how rewarding all that hard work will have been!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,468 ✭✭✭Ectoplasm


    And in!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Did it 4 or 5 times and have finally submitted it.
    I am sure the answers I had 3 tries ago were better but I changed some so many times I confused myself and forgot things.
    In now cos I am too tired to think any more.

    I changed plenty of answers before I submitted any! I did end up changing one answer after I had submitted them - I just hope it does not backfire! :o

    I am sorry I didn't just put the first things I thought of.

    That's what I did. I'm delighted with my answers and convinced I'm gonna win! :D So of course I'm gonna do terribly!

    I got to about 20 easily, fiddled around with them for a while to get to a decent 24, got stumped and spent ages messing to try get the last two letters in, and they weren't even bad letters :rolleyes: eventually gave up with one truly poo scented beauty in there :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    I’m excited to see which letter people didn’t use.

    40 minutes to go

    I will allow the entries to keep coming in until I wake up tomorrow morning if there's any really late entries but after that I need to start tidying up the notepad files :)
