Buffy The Sheep Slayer
Yes, it's Buffy/Angel (aka Buffyverse) sheep!
The game will run Wednesday, January 16th at 11 AM PST.
Intro for first time players
General Rules
Game-Specific Rules
Notes: This game will cover all seven TV seasons of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and all five TV seasons of Angel. While the comic books and original film can be considered canon, we won't bother with them for purposes of this game.
In terms of the questions here, "supernatural" mainly refers to Slayers, vampires, and other demons. Witches and Watchers who use magic will not be considered supernatural. My reasoning for this is that witches and Watchers channel the supernatural, but are not inherently supernatural themselves. We've seen enough characters use magic throughout both shows that I don't think there's anything inherently supernatural about magic-users.
For any question specifically referring to The Scooby Gang or Team Angel, I'm looking for long-standing members, not occasional allies. For anyone who has watched the shows, this shouldn't be too confusing.
For purposes of determining canon or judging arguments, I will use the Buffy/Angel wiki as my main resource. Please do not consult this when submitting your answers.
And another reminder: Please send in your answers to me via PM. Place only one answer per line, without numbers or the question itself. If you're using a slam dunk, add {sd} to the end of the answer, not the beginning. Those who do not do this will be penalized 20 points right off the bat.
I will also correct mistakes you may have made when originally sending me your answers at a cost of 10 points.
I will take no more than 20 participants not including myself. The game will start either late this coming week or early next week, depending on how long it takes for me to get a handle on this (it's my first time as Sheepmaster), and real-life time management.
I am not longer accepting entries. We're full up!

Re: Buffy The Sheep Slayer
I sent answers in. Coincidentally I just got done marathoning both shows a couple months ago, so its all still fairly fresh in my mind.

Re: Buffy The Sheep Slayer
I sent in answers. I've never played before and don't post very often, but I'm a big fan of Buffyverse, so I figured I'd give it a try. Good luck.

Re: Buffy The Sheep Slayer
Excited to see some first timers jumping in. It's my first time running a game, so you're in good company!
And Tracer, as a thanks for the resources you shared with me, I'll accept your answers even if I hit 20 players before you submit.
For everyone else, please look up episode titles when you submit. I don't relish having to look up "The one with..." This isn't Friends sheep, after all. I know the rules say not to look stuff up, and I appreciate people doing that. You can put in "the one with" as a placeholder for yourself while you answer all the questions, then go look up the specific episode whose title you've forgotten. I appreciate it.

Re: Buffy The Sheep Slayer
awil, you missed question 11. Please submit just the answer to question 11 to me by PM, and I will be giving you 10 points for fixing the mistake (but won't give you the 20 points since you did everything else correctly).

Re: Buffy The Sheep Slayer
I think my first PM didn't go through, so I resubmitted it. I haven't revisited either show in some years, so I'm sure several of my answers reflect that and am prepared for the well-deserved razzing for it.
