When SHEEPS meet PEEHS

The same set of questions with both answers required.

Answers to be submitted by 10pm Friday 5th July. Should be achievable without Google, but can be used.

10 questions, with the the first 10 answers given being used as Sheep. Most popular correct answer being scored as one point for each person giving that answer. If 6 entrants give the same answer, each gets 6 points.

The second set being taken as the peehs answer, the least popular correct answer getting the least penalty. -1 point for every person choosing that answer. If 5 people pick that answer, then the score will be -5.

Choose wisely, highest cumulative score wins.

1. Any Carry on Film
2. A country that is using the Euro as it's legal tender
3. Any US state that contains an A
4. One of Henry VIII's wives
5. One of the 7 Dwarves
6. Anyone who won an individual Olympic medal for Ireland
7. A sign of the Zodiac
8. Any of the alphabetic letters on the top row of a standard keyboard
9 Any county with a coastline on the island of Ireland
10. Any sweet found in a Quality Street tin, the name it is called officially.

Do you want the answers to sheep first, as in ten answers first, then answers to peehs?
So two lists of ten?

All good Necro, keeps my inbox cleaner if all in the one message.

Probably should have added, you can reuse the same answers if you want.

Can bluff or double bluff, add a curve ball to the mix :P

It's the minus points part of the peehs that I am looking forward to. Could be wild movements in the table.

First time doing one, so cutting my teeth here too.

For those of us of a certain vintage, these games seriously remind me of Ponster's quizzes back in the heady days of 2008! Can't believe that was over a decade ago :eek:

I feel stupid for not understanding how Molly would even know whether she understood or not understood what BB did wrong. How would she know or think she know, or not know, if she can't see his responses?

(^^ above makes sense in my head :P)

Answer to Q10 was given to Q1.

I've had notions of running a WW themed version for a while but I dunno, it's a little bit niche.

I think it would have to be sheep and research allowed for inclusivity.
