:shrug: I usually go for broke on the sweeps. You risk a big hit if you guess wrong, but I didn't feel that confident about any of my sheep answers this game.

Hedging is for wimps.

I didn't use any sweeps, not sure why...but what's done is done.

I think I used most of my sweeps on Reverse Sheep questions. That's... probably not a good thing.

I never did that. Mainly because I never understood how it worked that way.

Looking at it now, it looks like it can only hurt me. Best case scenario, it would have no effect.

I think I did the same thing..

Groucho 08-09-10 01:59 PM

Re: The Return of TV Sheep: Cop Shows!
 
I never use the {sw} (or the equivalent multipliers) correctly. :lol:

Palaver 08-09-10 02:01 PM

Re: The Return of TV Sheep: Cop Shows!
 
There were so many variations of sheep going on for a while, I would get confused. I remember one game where the multipliers on reverse sheep yielded huge results, so I got it in my head to try to always use them for reverse. :(

Fist of Doom 08-09-10 02:02 PM

Re: The Return of TV Sheep: Cop Shows!
 
I loaded up my sweeps on question #4, and for once I think I used them wisely.

wishbone 08-09-10 02:03 PM

Re: The Return of TV Sheep: Cop Shows!
 
I think sweeps/slam dunks on Reverse worked best with unique answers but they don't yield the totals that a big Sheep question does. Tracer is also running this game with a Reverse unique answer bonus too.

Tracer Bullet 08-09-10 02:04 PM

Re: The Return of TV Sheep: Cop Shows!
 
It's been a while. My brain forgot how to calculate the multipliers. It's all better now.

All answers are correct, I believe. That means no one gets a Wrong Answer Penalty.

Re: The Return of TV Sheep: Cop Shows!
 
I'm kinda nervous on this one. I may have gone a little too obvious.

Jimmy James gambled on using a {sweeps week!} on a Reverse Sheep question.

Jimmy James lost.

Jimmy James is sad.
