    Thanks Necro. That was some work!

    Thanks, Necro. Interesting format but looked like hard work for you.

    Congrats, Homer.

    Builebeag...I forgot nothing :)

    And huge thanks to Necro, not just for the huge commitment of this game but for the very welcome distraction :)

    I presume Necro noticed that Garret Fitzgerald was never President!

    They could have put Dom Jolly as the answer and I'd still have scored it the same tbh.

    Didn't expect to do too well after acing on the first question. Got very lucky in those last two rounds.

    Great game Necro. Infuriating, but brilliant! Many thanks for running.

    Congrats Homer! That was an impressive win.

    Loved the game Necro! My favourite part was everybody who didn't understand how the scoring worked losing their minds... :D

    That last question didn't drag me down as far as I expected, so very happy to be finishing in the Top 10.

    Congrats Homer, that's two stellar SHEEPing performances this week.


    Congrats on the wooden spoon, Skippy.


    Fair ****s, Necro, my brain was running out me nose trying to calculate my own score alone.

    Well played Homer!

    Great game Necro, thanks for putting it on :)

    Dougie Hyde ya little beauty. I say bring back the 50 punt note!

    Congrats Homer on the win!

    Thanks Necro for the great game and reveal!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 51,993 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Firstly, well done Homer again, I didnt manage to trap you at all :(

    Secondly, thank you all for playing and contributing to the game.

    The fact we managed to have our lil old sheep make the trending threads on Boards in the current circumstances is all down to you folks.

    Stay safe, and see you next time ;)

    Got my sh!t together for the last question. Fat lot of good it did me!!! :D

    Thanks Necro, you're a legend.

    Well done homer and Skippy.

    Good game Collie. I'll get ya next time!

    13 years on boards, 1 or 2 of which were as a Forum Mod, and only now do I notice that there's a Trending tab...

    What a Rollercoaster!

    Great idea, thanks a million Necro, fantastic game..

    Well done Homer, great show..

    I think that's the most points I have ever got in Sheep

    :D

    Still have no idea what ye did but thank you!

    To thine own self be true

    How did aaronjennings end up so low? Every time I looked at them they seemed to have a pile of points.

    I assume they fell foul of the three top answers rule once or twice?

    Aaron was actually really unlucky. He had most of the 1st and 2nd highest answers.

    His third answers were mostly aces though meaning he missed out on the bonuses, had even one person picked the same as him he would have been right up near the top.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,293 ✭✭✭Reberetta


    Not that it matters but I think my score was 673, one point off the podium.

    Toast to Homer! Thanks Necro.

    Shameless self-promotion time:

    More shameless plugging:

    PEEHS Picture Quiz - Famous Women

    Reveal to be done Tuesday night, so you have just under 48 hours to enter if you haven't done so yet. :)

    Yeah, I consistently got average scores, but there wasn't a single round where I got a high one. I was rarely if ever in the top half of the table as a result. I was too cautious about avoiding the punishment that I neglected going for any bonuses, which cost me dearly

    You probably just noticed my scores more because my name comes first alphabetically, it happens me a lot :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,241 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    Well played Honer!

    And well done Necro, you absolute maniac :p

    I got the top two on all but one question but hit the third as well on about half, the joint thirds were the killer!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,601 ✭✭✭lassykk


    Great game cheers for running Necro can't have been easy.

    If I'd been going for answers 1,2 &. 4 instead of 2, 3 & 4 I'd have been a lot higher but I'd never have won with the American Dad ace which wouldn't have changed

    Great game neccers was good fun

    Should I have more points in the last round as I didnt have 2nd place or is 2 joint third enough for penalty, just curious for future sake

    Two joint thirds incurred the penalty unfortunately :/

    I think Mam fell foul of the same issue unfortunately
