The basic rules:

Intro for first time players


General Rules


Game-Specific Rules
Unique Bonus: Reverse Sheep questions will generate additional bonus (negative) points according to the following:
1 Unique is awarded -20
2 Uniques are awarded -15 each
3 Uniques are awarded -10 each
4+ Uniques are awarded -5 each

Slam Dunks {sd}: Players have the power of multipliers in their hands. Each player is given five (5) Slam Dunks ({sd}) which they use by adding {sd} to the end of their answer. Your Slam Dunks have different effects depending on the question you use it on:
In Sheep questions, the {sd} adds 1 to the Multiplier.
In Reverse Sheep questions you can use your {sd} to turn the question into a sheep question for you. However, if your answer is wrong, it does nothing. Slam dunks cannot be stacked. Use one per question only or else they will be discarded. You cannot use two slam dunks to turn a Reverse into a Sheep and then slam dunk those sheep answers.

For this game, “soundtrack” refers to songs, musical pieces or score listed in the film's credits, not on the soundtrack album or uncredited work. I'll be using IMDB and Wikipedia to verify answers. I took out the subjective best/worst descriptors and kept things generic. I'm leaving this in the Movie thread as it relates music in film.

Please send in your answers to me via PM. Place only one answer per line, without numbers or the question itself. Do not forget your {sd}, and please place it after your answer (not before).

2. S: Name a movie based upon the life of an actual musician.

Uh oh. I have no answers at all for a number of these movie-specific questions (either never saw the movie, or don't remember specific songs), so I'll probably have to pass on this one Good luck everyone

Nick Danger

Wow. I just can't play sheep games on this forum. Nine movie titles are specified, and I've only seen one of them. I don't share enough cultural references with other people here.

devilshalo

Dang.. and I chose pretty well known movies.

tommyp007

I'll play

majorjoe23

I'll be playing as well.

devilshalo

Just in case... can I send someone my answers?

I'll accept players' answers until next weekend and this can start on Monday Oct. 2.

Decker

I will definitely play. I need a little time to cogitate. As way-too-big a fan of Kenny Loggins (I've seen him like seven times in concert - maybe more), coming up with one soundtrack song is going to be tough for me. Likewise, on Question 17, I've gone from having zero ideas to having three equally good ideas that I can't choose between. Decisions, decisions.

GhostLee

This would be a tough one for me. I haven't watched some of these movies in years, and haven't seen a couple of them at all. I'm afraid I'll have to sit this one out, too.

Decker

Come on, folks - it's not that hard. Give it a shot!

Crocker Jarmen

Jeez, I hate to say it, because I love these Sheep Games, and I know how much time and effort goes into running them, so I never want to say anything negative because I'm so grateful every time a board member takes it upon themself to run a game...

But so many of these questions are so specific, that I fear a lot of potential players will be put off, which is a terrible thing, because the number of us Sheep is already dwindling.

I'll be a good sport and submit, but I wish the questions were more general. It's hard to get psyched up when you know you're starting with a handicap of three incorrect reverse answers.

davidh777

I'll likely play. While I'll have some guesses, I'm not as clueless as I was for the last two horror games, and a couple questions I'd put on my short list for a Musicals Sheep game! But I figured that would have a limited audience so I've pursued other ideas instead.

mwbmis

Answers submitted. I took one for the team in that horror game a few games ago so hopefully others may do so here.

davidh777

As SM I usually send my answers to the first submitter and then use or discard them as necessary.

Nick Danger

It's not your choice of movies. I'm the one who hasn't seen Forrest Gump, Back to the Future, or Saturday Night Fever. This game brought home to me how far outside the mainstream my movie tastes are.

I don't want to discourage anyone who wants to be a sheepmaster.

Abob Teff

Bunch of slack jawed sheep 'round here. This sheep will make you a sheep-damned sexual Tyrannasheepus, just like me.



Yeah, I am not a "music person" at all but the fun of these games is in playing. You miss 100% of the sheep you don't take. I think Wayne Gretsksheep said that.

majorjoe23

I've got my answers figured out, but I have no idea what I should slam.

Abob Teff

All of them. Slam ALL of them ...

sleepyhead55

Ill submit answers later. I have no idea on some of these so I should be a favorite for last place and a number of bootsies.

devilshalo

You've got time... maybe when you're in the car or whatever listening to music, answers'll hit you.

wishbone
