Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Entries Closed!

OH MY GOD! It's South Park Sheep!

http://www.pastdeadline.com/images/2...outhpark_2.gif

<ul>Rules<br>
<li> The object of the game is to out-think everyone by picking answers to questions that are the most common (<FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #F9DF00">Sheep</font>) or least common (<FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #A3D867">Reverse Sheep</font>), but still correct.
<li> Example <FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #F9DF00">Sheep</font> question: "Name a character." A good answer might be Cartman and a bad answer might be Mr. Slave.
<li> Example <FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #A3D867">Reverse Sheep</font> question: "Name a South Park writer". Trey Parker might be a bad answer, but Pam Brady might be a good answer. (Unless you think everyone else is trying to go as obscure as possible, in which case you might outsmart them by naming Trey Parker).
<li> Sheep scores are tallied as negative numbers. Reverse Sheep scores are tallied as positive numbers. The lowest score wins.
<li> The answers to each question are tallied up. Wrong answers in Reverse Sheep are scored two points above the most common answer. This penalty is multiplied by the Lightning Round Multiplier. Wrong answers in Sheep are not penalized.
<li> Certain rounds are considered Lightning Rounds (designated by a multiplier, such as ×2). In these rounds, scores are adjusted by the <u>number on the multiplier</u>. A wrong answer still gets a +4 penalty in a ×2 round and a +6 penalty in a ×3 round, and so on. In a sheep round, a wrong answer scores normally.
<li> For this game only answers from your head are allowed. The use of Google/Wiki/SouthParkStudios.com/etc is strictly VERBOTEN!
<li> Please send in your answers to me via PM. Place only one answer per line, without numbers or the question itself. Those who do not do this will be penalized 10 points right off the bat.
<li> Note: Be creative with your answers, but don't be stupid.
<li> Sheep questions are marked by an <FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #F9DF00">S:</font>, Reverse Sheep questions are marked by an <FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #A3D867">R:</font>.
<li> Unique Bonus: Reverse Sheep questions will generate additional bonus (negative) points according to the following:
1 Unique is awarded -10
2 Uniques are awarded -7 each
3 Uniques are awarded -4 each
4 Uniques are awarded -1 each
<li> To assist you in submitting your answers, a spreadsheep is available here.</ul>

I'm not sure how long I'll accept answers, but I can pretty much guarantee I'll be doing the results during regular business hours. I might start on Thursday unless response is really low, then it may be next week. On the flip side, I think since this is my first Sheep that I should limit the number of players to 40.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Well, my usual sheep strategy of answering the questions as quick as possible while at work certainly didn't help much here... I felt like I really struggled with this one!

6 Sheep games at once!

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
reverie, would you mind receiving my answers for reference? Just to make sure I didn't cheat.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Hang on. I messed up the question order in the OP. The spreadsheet is correct.

I will fix this momentarily.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Ok, dvdhook and reverie, please revisit questions 16-18. I missed 16 originally and had 18 in there twice ;)

pinata242 08-03-09 12:16 PM

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
In so far:
pinata242
reverie - Need clarification on questions 16-18.
dvdhook - Need clarification on questions 16-18.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
I only saw about half of Imaginationland back when it first aired. Remembered like nothing about it. The two bombs I put for those answers will set me back right away.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
#21 could be controversial

pinata242 08-03-09 01:42 PM

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
So far it's pretty tame. That may change when I get your answers ;)

And, really, isn't controversy what we strive for?

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
I just sent my answers in. I enjoy South Park as much as the next person but I haven't seen all the eps and I've only seen them once or twice so I wouldn't call myself a huge fan.

We'll see how it plays out.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
damn, this is hard. I gave up after season4 and have seen a handfull of episoes since then (most of them on the Hits dvd compilation) and most of season 10 and 11

I didn't mean for it to be hard. I tried to stay away from specific episodes, unless they were very memorable and could provide a good question.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
My answers suck (pretty basic) but I'm in. I had no clue on the "Here Comes the Neighborhood" one. Don't remember that ep, so I just took a wild guess.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
PM sent, thanks pinata.

I have not seen the Imaginationland episodes and I could not recall the celebrities that moved into South Park but hopefully I did better on the Sheep questions than I have done in other games.

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Currently have 24 players. Politics Sheep is running, Poker/Vegas is penciled in for tomorrow. I think I'll hold off on these results until Monday. It'll allow for a few more players and give me time to prepare for busting my herder cherry.

nm sorry

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Is this up next?

pinata242 08-06-09 09:38 AM

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Yeah, but I was planning to wait until Monday for a variety of reasons. Let's list them, shall we?

1) I'm only on the computer during work hours (M-F, 7:30 - 4:30 CT)
2) Today I have 2 appointments outside of the house to attend to
3) Tomorrow I have a major meeting in the middle of the day
4) It will give me time to prepare the results and gather pictures

That said, if you guys don't mind a slower roll-out with several long pauses I can start today.

I have 25 players which feels fine.

pinata242 08-06-09 09:41 AM

Re: Goin' Down to South Park Sheep
 
Also, I'm thinking of calling #22 a bonus question and having 2 final standings because of it. I think that the multiplier coupled by the confusion i'm experiencing lining up answers made it a bad question.

What do you guys think?
