The next question should shake things up a bit.

Did you slam it? Or did you take the hit and hope that your slam gets you more points somewhere else?

I feel like there enough obvious answers that a slam will get you -5 instead of +5 or something like that. Of course you never know how people will treat the reverse.

Just seven answers to chose from.

Smart play to pick the Sheepiest answer and slam it, but how many others are playing the same way. Out of 25 players, it's completely conceivable that 20 could pick Iron Man and slam it, especially as that strategy becomes more commonly known in the games.

With 7 possible answers, with 6 that everyone should know, the odds to me just didn't seem in favor of a slam. We'll see though. When I can only think of 1 or 2 correct answers that I'm sure of is when I slam a reverse

There is an 8th movie. I almost went with it, but decided to play it safer in case someone had an issue with it.

That's the strategy I follow. Dooku's idea makes sense but it seems there's never agreement on the strategy. Even if all players agreed to do it beforehand, you'd probably get some people flipping and picking something else to get the unique AND save a slam.

Is it on one of the two lists of acceptable movies/answers?

You never know where Reverse logic will lead.

Exactly. That's why I consider it risky to slam a reverse.

Yes it is. It's a sneaky answer, and open to a challenge, so I let it go. Plus I figure all you guys are good at coming up with obscure answers, so I had a feeling I wouldn't be the only one to go with it. We'll see if anyone uses it when Abob returns. If not, I'll explain.

Same, but I think I argued enough about that in the last sheep game

It seems to come up in pretty much every game.

Speaking of that list of acceptable movies, did anyone else notice that the list also contains all the primary production studios, totally negating any knowledge required for a unique answer for Reverse question 9? Kind of a bummer.

I thought it was odd wikipedia lists were thrown up when the rules of the game emphatically say "no Googling".

For what its worth I didn't look at the list until the Judge Dredd issue came up.

Yeah, I thought we weren't supposed to look at those lists. I could've avoided a craptastic studio answer otherwise.

David is correct ... from the standard rules of the game (and pretty much all Sheep games):

You may not cheat by using Google, Wikipedia, etc. Use only what's in your head.
My addition to the rules for this game:

I will use these Wikipedia pages for any judging that needs to be done:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o..._Marvel_Comics
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...d_on_DC_Comics
Do we have some bad sheep?

My bad Mr. Flix -- I checked and I had it scored properly on the score sheet, so no correction to the scores are needed. I accidentally looked at your name when typing the reveal. It was GhostLee and Crocker Jarmen who answered with the Joker.

7.) REVERSE: In the original Sheeperhero we established the popularity of Tony Stark/Iron Man among DVDTalkers. Name a superhero movie which Robert Downey Jr. appeared in.

May as well start at the beginning ...

Iron Man
