Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!
Welcome all - This game is comic centric, but i wanted to try to make it accessible to people with only a casual knowledge of comics as well. Sorry if my questions suck, I'm new at this; feel free to complain, but expect me to tell you to go fuck yourselves.
Here's all the usual info:
Intro for first time players
General Rules
Game-Specific Rules
And another reminder: Please send in your answers to me via PM. Place one answer per line, without numbers or the question itself. Add {sd} to the end of the answer, not the beginning. Those who do not do this will be penalized 20 points right off the bat.
I will also correct mistakes you may have made when originally sending me your answers at a cost of 10 points.
WARNING: This is my first time hosting one of these so I apologize in advance for any rough patches. I plan on taking the usual 20-25 entrants so as not to overload myself on scoring. I will post when the entries are closed (though will make special dispensations for anyone who has run a Sheep game in the past).
I plan to start this sheep on Monday 2/18 in the afternoon EST
Now on to the questions!

Re: Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!
Ok, sorry, i had to leave the office soon after i posted this, so i have to answer these questions from my cell. #9 is asking for someone that came from an alternate time line or from the past or future and joined the x-men in the regular marvel universe. Over the years there have been a lot of them. do I need to explain this more or should I change the question somehow. Again, I'll take edits on this question with no penalty since it was confusing... but only to those who have sent answers already.

You threw me with the whole 616 thing, but my answer still stands. At least that character I chose falls within the boundaries of your question. I think.

Re: Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!
I'm a casual comic fan. Have no idea what 616 means Never heard of Valiant Comics. Never read Secret Wars or Guardians of the Galaxy (though you'd think one of the names would stick with me having read blurbs about the upcoming movie ... but it hasn't). I'm usually hesitant to enter these things when I know I can't compete ... but seeing all the other DVDTalkers who clearly aren't afraid to suck may help me to suck it up and have fun with it.

Well there are many different alternate futures and timelines in Marvel comics. The mainstream continuity (which is what most people would be familar with) is known as the 616 universe.

I'd say if you're interested enough to follow the game, and you have some working knowledge, you might as well play.

Re: Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!
Here's a dumb question ... if you answer "I don't know" for a Sheep question, can you match other people who say the same thing? Or do you just get a zero?

Re: Comic/Super-Hero Sheep NOW!
I have a Valiant comic or 2 somewhere in my collection, but I couldn't think of any titles (and after googling, I wouldn't have come up with any of them if you gave me a week), so I gave a goofy answer. Also never seen or read Walking Dead (you can take away my nerd card now if you want). Also, I spaced on the hero or villan that brings an animal to battle. I gave an answer, but I have no belief that anyone will match the answer I gave.
