So you entered at the last minute after presumably already seeing my answers? How did this work?

I think.

A slam dunk on wrong reverse does nothing. You want to use sd on reverse if you think a lot of people said your correct answer.

Should be a straight -2, I think.

You just have to trust that the Sheepmaster had come up with that answer on his own. If he was really trying to cheat, he would have picked something to get a unique.

You are both wrong- edit TBC and Shannon that is. . His dunk turns it into a sheep question so he gets -2

I agree with hasslein. You dunk a reverse if you can only think of one correct answer and think a lot of people will also come up with only that one answer.

My answers were all ready before I started the game, just in case I had to use them.

2. S: Gunsmoke's 20 seasons made it the longest-running TV western in history. Who is your favorite Gunsmoke character?

I thought that would be a lot worse for me. I might not end up in last place after all.

This.

If I'm ever a sheepmaster, no one's allowed to SD a Reverse!

I had no idea on this one, so I just hoped it was the name of a character.

I had to Google that, and evidently there was a Billy Joe on Gunsmoke - for one episode.

Surprised no one knows names of characters on this show...I've never seen an episode, but I knew three characters' names. Guess it's an age thing - it was still on TV when I was a kid.
