Reberetta

Who got the V sign from Boardsies in this round?

Reberetta

The Verve go ahead and jump...into first place. I like the Vera Lynn and Vengaboys answers.

It's ectasy for ten as the seventies icons take it. Shelly obviously loves her metal and says to hell with it. Tusk goes for Xena Warrior Princess!? and Pretzill has the best answer of the whole sheep.

I'm not sure I do either

Reberetta

Going into the final letter, it's Electric Nitwit at the top 27 points ahead of second-placed Zaph.

Tusk is at the bottom 5 points behind Spook ie.

Who will put themselves in pole position going into the 2 bonus and minus rounds?

Let's ask Ziggy.

Reberetta

Could there be a more appropriate name for a band?

ZZ TOP

So happy mam is playing this game!

You still glad I played ?

Reberetta

But it's not over!

I have chosen 2 music artists/bands from a hat-one very well-known, one not so well-known generally.

If you have given me the very well-known music artist you will get zero points.
E.G. if the well-known music artist is Mickey Mouse and you have answered Mickey Mouse for M and 9 other people have given the name Mickey Mouse for M this will result in ZERO points for all 10 who gave that answer!

If you have given me the lesser-known music artist you will get double the points of the sheep score of that letter.
E.G. if the lesser-known music artist is Mickey Mouse and you answered Mickey Mouse for M and the sheep score for M is 25 you will get a massive 50 points!

So without further ado, it's time to reveal the former; the very well-known music artist who will result in a deduction of points for whoever has chosen said artist...

Here we go. Toys out of pram time

I'll probably have to take it back in a minute if I get points deducted

Pretzill

I don't mind being in the bottom five - I didnt pick any **** bands

Reberetta

I got a minor calculation wrong in post 172. Edited now. No biggie. All scores provided are still right and the same.

Mam of 4

I don't mind either !
I've a habit of picking the music I like that I remember from years back , sure tis all fun !

Reberetta

So let's look at the players who will have 8 points deducted for picking Westlife, including the current leader and wooden spoon incumbent:

WESTLIFE

Toto Wolfcastle
Kolido
irishejit
Trigger
Purple Mountain
Electric Nitwit

So the bottom of the table now looks like this:

---

129
Mam of 4

---

125
Spook ie

---

113
Trigger

---

111
tusk

81


Can tusk avoid the wooden spoon with one of his lesser-known aces earning a double sheep score?

And the top of the table now looks like this:


Electric Nitwit

---

252
Zaph

---

233
Homer J. Fong

---

220
Sheridan81

---

210
Scorpion Sting

---

206
Kolido

---

204


Can someone snatch the victory from Electric Nitwit's grasp with a lesser-known music artist answer that will earn a double sheep score?

Some might remember the words I used in the sign-up thread:

https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=111784830&postcount=41

It is now time to reveal the lesser-known music artist who might earn some lucky player double sheep score points and possibly victory.

Drum roll please Dave.

Reberetta

Babes In Toyland!...Who no one picked so nothing changes. Anticlimax.:P

Final scores.

Thanks everyone for playing. Glad to get it done a bit quicker tonight. If there's any mistakes in scoring, contact my lawyers.

Tauriel

Thanks for the excellent reveal Reberetta.

Congrats to Electric and tusk on their respective standings:)

Electric Nitwit

Whoo-hoo - months I've been here and this is my first victory

Thanks Reb, great game!

Also Starring LeVar Burton

7th place and 200 points - pretty happy with that result for my first sheep.

That was a lot of fun... Thanks Reberetta

Mam of 4

Congratulations EN, a very well deserved victory. It's also my best ever finish so I'm delighted.

Thanks for another great game Reberetta, and also for an excellent reveal.

Cathmandooo

Wohooo I was raging I hadn't thought of westlife

Great game, thanks again Reberetta!

Well done EN

The only Babes in Toyland song I know is this...um, interesting cover!

Many thanks Reberetta for a very entertaining reveal. Congrats Electric Nitwit for a very impressive score. And congrats tusk for adding yet another wooden spoon to his collection!

Nope , we did ourselves proud Pretzill !

I don't know if the same can be said about the number of children I ended up with though :pac:

Reberetta

Electric Nitwit had 20 out of 26 sheeps. His/her other answers were all second. Not factoring in the deserved deduction for picking Westlife, he/she missed out on only 11 points.

I was preparing an alphabetical album cover quiz when this came out, I may have had an advantage!

(album cover quiz to come soon...)

Thanks Reberetta!

Surely I get a prize for coming last on both games?
