That's why I didn't slam him.

I chose him because of one episode of Star Trek.

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game
Got enough time to throw in one more question.



10. S: Who is your favorite Farscape character?

I'm not sure which character this referred to, but it didn't get a match.

Spoiler:
alien lady
wishbone 0

Spoiler:
So here's a picture of an alien lady:


And that's my one and only Babylon 5 reference of the game.

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game
Again, I'm not sure who was meant here but it was a slightly better answer.

Spoiler:

The Captain
Crocker Jarmen -2
NORML54601 -2

From what I remember, there was no actual captain on Farscape. If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me.

I think that if any of those people could have named the star of the show, they would have. A lot of these questions are too niche for casual fans, and that's why the game had trouble attracting players.

I've only seen one episode, but "John Crichton" does sound familiar now that I see it.

I'm regressing, going to end up doing worse in this game than the Game of Thrones version, which I went into blind never having played Sheep before.

At least you got some points. My answer tied with Stumpy McDoodle and did worse than "blue guy who 'scaped the farthest"

Fuck me ... Ray Bradbury. This is the problem with these games. A fuck-all wank-off answer for a show I have never seen nets me -2 while all of my uniques in reverses only get me -1.

The show specific questions have been very niche. I have never watched Fascape, Lexx, or Futurama which were all specific questions. Still enough to have fun with though!

That's because he wrote Jurassic Park.

That's weird. I thought he was the rebel leader fighting Skynet.
