There was a spreadsheet. It was a Google Docs spreadsheet. Down with Micro$oft!

I have some questions lined up and would like to play host, if I could get some advice from JasonF or the other Sheepmasters, particularly with the organization and scoring with a spreadsheet.

Thanks for the game JasonF!!

That would be Foggy with a score so far in the negative that I question whether they have ever read a comic book.

Perhaps we can all chip in and send Foggy to the next ComicCon?

Yep. Thanks for the game. Can't believe I made top 5. I quit collecting comics back in 1989/1990!

Thanks for another fun game.

If only I could've remembered the rules: there are no wrong answers in sheep.






I look forward to the next Legion of Substitute Sheep Game & perhaps learning the secrets of the Anti-Sheep Equation.

Better finish than last time!

Thanks, JasonF, for a fun game and for all others participating. It ain't sheep if there's no flock!

Re: Comic Book Sheep 2: Crisis on Infinite Sheep

I don't get the "there are no wrong answers in sheep" bit. If an answer is clearly wrong, doesn't it get 0 points by JasonF? That's why I specifically asked for clarification on the movie question, since I wasn't sure if the character had to have top billing (since GL was in both Legends of Superheroes and the never-aired JLA series, and will have an upcoming movie, and Thor was in the Hulk movie). So if 20 people put "Superman" as the superhero that has never been in a live action show, wouldn't they all get 0 points?

The trick is to stop thinking right there. The rule is that simple. There is no such thing as a wrong answer (in sheep questions).

All you need to care about is what other people will answer. A great example of this would be the "Name a Milton Bradley game" in the Other forum game. Monopoly isn't a MB game, but it's the most famous board game so tons of people picked it. Doesn't matter if it's wrong, it's just what other people are thinking.

Ah, I see, there are bad answers in reverse sheep, but not in sheep, got it.

That's what I just thought too, with one of those wavy foam fingers

Man, I really stunk up this round. Those multipliers were brutal.

I just wanted to add this about C.O.P.S.: a fun bit of trivia is that it's actually probably connected to the GI Joe universe. They were both Hasbro properties, and Checkpoint (the C.O.P.S. military police officer) was named Joe Sneeden. His file card said that his father was a member of a top secret military team in the 1980's and 1990's. Most fans have taken this to mean Beach Head, whose real name was Wayne Sneeden.

They also recently integrated MASK into the GI Joe universe with that "Specialist Matt Trakker" figure they released last year...

Re: Comic Book Sheep 2: Crisis on Infinite Sheep

I'm sorry for not posting sooner, but I've been away in Germany with limited access to the internet for the past two weeks. I just read through the entire thread. I would have liked to have followed the game live but wasn't able to.

I'd like to thank JasonF for running the game and thank everyone else for their congratulations. This was my first DVD Talk Sheep game, so I guess that I can only go downhill from here.
