Gramps wins! He submitted his answers in the last minute, and ended up scoring maximum points on 12 out of 15 questions. Despite missing the biggest point-question (#14 IGN), he still wins by a healthy margin.

I clicked on this thread for the first time at about 2:55 PM local time. I decided to rush and get my answers in.

Yep. Fun. I totally blanked on the Rock Band question.

Looks like hail2dking and I are swapped. Looks like #4 to me.

So that was just a warm up round, right?

I'll do another round, if there is interest.

We could also do Reverse Sheep, where you try to name correct answers that no one else will name.

I agree, that was fun! Jeremy, you can send the Microsoft Points code to me via PM. A Paypal payment would also be acceptable.

Good times, and since I was apparently trying to play reverse sheep, I'm up for that!

I think Reverse Sheep would be worthwhile.

I'm not surprised at my ranking because I usually do really well on guessing other people's answers on that stupid Wii voting channel. But I know nothing about Final Fantasy, so I kind of crapped out on that one.

Great game! I can add this to my other memorable Silver medal, the Hurricane Pool.

Nice one! heh.. I knew I'd suck a bit since I honestly never play music games and I have no clue about American Football. Also, owning only Sega consoles back in the day was the final nail .

I think Reverse Sheep you would have to then check all answers. I notice that you gave points for a wrong answer because two people had the same one. That wouldn't work in reverse sheep.

Yes. Incorrect answers in reverse sheep get the number of points for the answer with the most votes + 1, making it worse than giving the worst correct answer. Low score wins.

Why would a 3rd baseman be on the cover of Madden?

Quiet you. If you had gotten the class right on question 5, we would both be 2 points richer.

I could see some psychology coming into play with reverse sheep. Like say, the question is name a character in Street Fighter II:Turbo, I could see myself saying "Ken" because everyone else will think it's too popular and not say Ken.

I was thinking the same thing regarding the question about Mario. I definitely would have gone for Super Mario World or something to that effect. But now that it has been mentioned what will we do?
