    What is Sheep ?

    Sheep is a game I played on another forum many years ago

    The aim is to match your answer with as many other players as possible. There is no such thing as an incorrect answer, so if someone asks, 'name a mountain' and everybody replies, 'Necro' then that was the best sheep answer.

    The Sheeper with the highest score at the end wins!



    Answer these 8 questions in an unnumbered list and PM it to me. DO NOT post your answers on the thread.

    1. A color
    2. A forum games poster
    3. A sport
    4. A shape
    5. A TV Show
    6. A werewolf game
    7. A mobile phone manufacturer
    8. A musician


    Submissions are due by 5 PM Irish time on Thursday. Reveal will happen on Thursday night whenever I get home from work.

    Research is allowed. Though how helpful that will be to you..... only time will tell!

    If you want to see how Sheep has worked on my home forum, then you can go to this link here :: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/59/puzzles-other-games/video-game-sheep-1184321/

    Happy sheeping :D

    5 entrants so far!


    I've been testing The Sheepulator and it seems to work perfectly with boards.ie, so when the reveal begins on Thursday evening, I should be able to move through it seamlessly :)

    Less than 2 days to get your answers in :D

    If you can extend the game or run a new one after this one I think it would be a good idea. We might get a mention in the site news yoke.

    Can run any number of them Petr or extend if its wanted. The only issue for me is when I can schedule the reveals as they require me to be sitting at my computer uninterrupted for an hour or two and the guarantees of that are few and far between with wife/kids lol

    Fyi, if you are unhappy with your selections, you can always resubmit. That's the same for everyone else. Resubmissions can work positively and negatively lol

    I'd be happy to show which one I use and how it works after the reveal. The ideal scenario is that eventually lots of people will run sheep games of their own.

    I just want to make sure it works well before sharing it out
