Groucho

#2 for me.

Damfino

Congrats to Rufus T. Firefly, President of Fredonia!

Thanks to Thor for running the game, and welcome to Premium status. where's your avatar?

Th0r S1mpson

Glad you enjoyed it. I figure running this game cost me about $500 in work hours.

Never again. But it was fun to do once.

Pharoh

No, you came in second when I very luckily won the third, I believe, politics sheep game.

Th0r S1mpson

Tracer, you got -7 for your Palin pick on the last one.

Congrats, Groucho, and thanks to Thor for running this.

(Also, I am owed 7 points for Sherrod Brown).

Tracer Bullet

But I also matched the SheepMate, which was worth -7. Or am I not understanding how the SheepMates work?

Pharoh

Still a four way tie for second then. Unless I've missed a comic book or video game win?

orangecrush

Hate the Sheepmate questions. Hate!

Thank you very much Thor for running this. It was quite fun.

PeMo

I had Obama vs McCain, too. I was going to say not that it matters, but it does - I move up 4 spots!

Pharoh

I didn't mind the Sheepmates since they really didn't have a massive impact. What I hated, and as since been refined or scrapped, was the huge multiplier equalisers. They unfairly altered the game.

Winsome Groucho!
Congrats & good game!

Thanks Thor, it was a lot of fun!

Pharoh

What's next?

Th0r S1mpson

For SheepMate points, you have to have given the exact same pairing. So all of those people said BOTH Palin and Obama.

Flashback

THANK YOU THOR! - Job well done.

Th0r S1mpson

You're right! I better fix it. That acutally makes Obama/Palin no longer a SheepMate bonus as well. Corrections forthcoming.

Is it too late to challenge this one? While I followed the instructions, I have it on good authority that chowderhead chose Jim Wright haphazardly, not carefully as he was supposed to. Mine should be considered unique.

SANAA, Yemen (CNN) -- Six suspected al Qaeda members -- including an al Qaeda chief wanted in the bombing of the USS Cole -- were killed early Monday in Yemen when a CIA drone launched a "Hellfire" missile and struck the car they were traveling in, sources told

Lincoln's Speaker during the Civil War, and later Vice President of the United States? He probably has as many cities and towns named after him as any former Speaker.

Rockmjd23

Congrats to Groucho! You played the Sheep questions in this game perfectly.

Th0r S1mpson

Not sure a Hellfire missile counts as "dropping a bomb" actually.

Rockmjd23

I used to consider you da bomb, too! It's all good.
