Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

R:23 – Siskel and Ebert once did a show highlighting the beauty of black and white photography. Name a black and white movie made in the last twenty years.

Quite a few slams played on this question, people seemed sure lots of Sheep would pick the same movie. Were they correct?

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

Major confusion here...

Spoiler:



The Artist
hasslein {sd} -6
Jules Winfield{sd} -6
Rbrown498 {sd} -6
Palaver{sd} -6
Shannon Nutt +6
Fist of Doom {sd}{sd} ????

I’m a little unsure of how to score Fist of Doom’s double slam on a Reverse. If one slam makes the question into regular sheep, does a second slam turn it back into a Reverse? Should I mark him at +6. Naw, that’d be mean. He’ll get -6.

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

It at least a few games where that has happened, the second slam has been scored as a multiplier, which would make it -12 if you chose to do that. Up to you though, it's not clear in the rules

Im pretty sure it was discussed a few games ago that you cannot double slam a reverse and get a multiplier. the consensus was that it was just a wasted slam.

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

It's at the discretion of the sheep master, but I think the rule should be made clear at the top each time as to what it does.

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

I think the consensus opinion was to inflict a level of bootsy-like ridicule to anyone who used their slams in such a manner.

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

Since we're all so addicted to schadenfreude, I would think it just becomes a wasted slam.

I like how Obi-Wan Jabroni tells me that in past games, it has been scored as a multiplier, then one post later ivelostr2 tells me the exact opposite.

I think I'll make it a wasted slam, since that would be funnier.

If Pi, Schindler's list or Following are unique (or not picked at all), my brain might melt.

Dudes! I've got ONE question left! And it's the most interesting. Try not to get this thread locked before I can finish! (Although, in the spirit of schadenfreude, that would be kinda funny if I wound up having wasted all this time )

Re: Two Bleats Up: The Roger Ebert Memorial Sheep Game

In all seriousness r2 is right it is treated as turning the reverse into a sheep and then doubling the sheep with a slam dunk. -12 would be the right way to go.
