Evil Emu! Sheep, except for when its not sheep

    Some of you may be wondering "what is an emu?" Nothing could be simpler. It is exactly like a sheep. Except for when it isn't.

    I will give you four questions and you PM me four responses. You score a point for every person who gives the same response as you. The winner is the player with the most points over the four questions.

    One catch, though. If you give the most popular response for all four questions, your total score is reduced to zero (0), and you will be ridiculed by all and sundry. Well, maybe not ridiculed :)

    Entries are due by Tuesday 16th of February at 23:59PM. I hope to reveal on Wednesday evening at around 9-9:30pm.

    Research is allowed.

    PM me your answers for the following:

    1. An African country that starts with the letter E.
    2. An Irish number 1 song by Westlife
    3. A musical instrument
    4. A forum games moderator

    So are you trying to SHEEP in 3, but not 4?

    Or not SHEEP in any? (In which case is it not a HEEPS?)

    Apologies for being thick!

    As if it would make the slightest difference to what I may or may not answer, but just to be clear.....

    heeps gets penalized for any and all sheeps. so 4 sheeps would score 0.

    3 sheeps and a heeps in a heeps only scores you the heeps question, all the rest are 0
    3 sheeps and a heeps in emu scores for all of them.

    they only score the same if you scored every sheep.

    Wow that is way too much for my brain to process lol.

    I'll answer the questions anyway & see what happens later but I haven't a clue what I'm supposed to be doing :D
