    Hi everyone,

    I just came up with this idea for a Sheep, I've no idea if it'll work but my walrus is finished and I've nothing better to do :pac:. Now enjoy these bulletpoints
    • The aim is to either add letters onto the existing word to create a new one or add another word to make two words. Choose whatever you think will be the most popular option.
    • The letters must be added AFTER the words below, not before.
    • For example If the word was "Soft" you could answer either "Softly" or "Soft Cell".
    • And remember there are no wrong answers in sheep.
    • Google is allowed
    • Send your words to me via Private Message in an unnumbered list before the closing date of Saturday, 29th August at 7.30pm.
    • The reveal will Saturday, 29th August at 8pm.

    Didn't think too much about my answers. I have a feeling this is some sort of Rorschach that Shane will be using to analyse us with later. To what purpose? I can only speculate.

    So far, its looking like the majority of us will be tied on 17 for the wooden spoon and the 2 people who got 1 answer the same will joint win 1st place with score of 18.

    Went stream of thought - no thinking allowed.

    Probably a technique better suited to psychoanalysis than sheep.
