Think I decided to only go with Rivers for this... Make it easier on myself when choosing answers...

I definitely favoured them when possible, figured most people would

Third longest river in the world. Definitely not made up!

Er.... no. No he does not.

In fact it's wrestlemaniac who takes a rather horrible tumble right at the end. Just as well they weren't in front right? :P

Long week, lots of crazy answers, that's my excuse and I'm stickin to it :pac:

Neowise

Joint 9th place, yay.

Best result in ages.

Thank for the fun game Necro.

Congrats on the win Zaph.

Keep that spoon warm for me Sinead, I'm sure i'll be collecting it back soon.

Declan A Walsh

Congrats to Zaph and the silver and bronze medalists ShaneU and Buile Beag. Well played SineadSpears - some great answers!

KathleenGrant

That was great fun Necro.
Great job.

Collie D

Thanks Necro and well done to Zaph.

Joint 20th..sigh..I actually won the first one of these I entered about two years and am beginning to think you were all just being nice to the new guy. Not even close since.

Irish Aris

Congrats Zaph, great win, steady wins it!!

Thank you for organising yet another great sheep, always great fun!!

Electric Nitwit

Good work Zaph!

Cheers Necro, great as always! I was only snatching glimpses, will have a proper read back in a bit

Declan A Walsh

Thanks Necro. Good game.

ShaneU

Ah of course the Xingu river, how could I forget. spent many a summer there :pac:

davetherave

Not a good outing. That'll teach me to leave it to the last minute.

Nearly went with the Avon in Bristol before I remember that the Amazon was a river. Missed the Danube (because the first D river that you think of is the Dodder :rolleyes:, aced against the Ganges, Hudson, aced against the Jordan, aced against the Kwai, stuck with the great lakes and went with Lake Michigan instead of the Mississippi, the Rhine, Windemere (never heard of it).

Great reveal Necro. Well played Zaph

Electric Nitwit

Also, are we going to address the elesheep in the room...?


What's happened to Homer's sheep mojo recently?? :eek:

Well done Zaph, ShaneU and BuileBeag.

I was right behind you.

Got sick of being viewed as the villain because he's better than the rest of us at Sheep, so is allowing some other people a chance to win a few, obviously...

I did the same thing with Walruses... Let some plebs win for awhile, and lie in wait until it's time to strike and go on another winning streak...

Zaph

Thanks everyone, and thanks to Necro for another great game and reveal. And congrats to ShaneU and BuileBeag, very happy to be sharing the podium with you guys. Commiserations to wrestlemaniac, massively unlucky right at the end.

Toto Wolfcastle

That was fun. Thanks Necro. Enjoyed my unexpected comeback.

Congrats Zaph!

Sawduck

Well done Zaph
Great game as always Necro even if I did bloody terrible at it

Mutleyboo

Thanks Necro... twas a pleasure... I will return till I get to the top (I may be here a while)
Fair play Zaph!
