1. A person who has or had a beard
I expected to see Jesus, Osama, and Santa Claus battling it out at the top of this list. But with the Thanksgiving season you Americans may have got more patriotic and the clear favourite was

2. An Asian-American person
This one got a lot of varied answers. At least they all fulfilled one of the criteria.

The close winner was

3. A sport rarely played in the US

The US has hosted a soccer world cup and more American youngsters play soccer than American football. However it hasn't caught on as a spectator sport, because you people are too unsophisticated to understand it. Perhaps it would be the winner for the "sport rarely watched in the US".

However it's the height of the

season here in sunny Sydney, and that was the winning answer.

4. A sport that doesn't involve a ball

Apparently this question was asked before, however I left it in as I hadn't seen that one and the first few responses had a mix of different answers. But in the end there was a clear winner

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

One third of the way through, jjp and Brain have yet to drop any points. However there are a couple of banana skins coming up, and a couple of interesting answers.

Back later or maybe tomorrow.

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

Hey Roundtower, I'm sorry us Americans are too unsphisticated to watch a highly flawed game that 50% of the time ends 0-0 or 1-0. A game that as soon as someoen scores it ends, a sport where any penalty results in death by lethal injection and a sport that is essentially over if the score is 1-0 after 1 minute.

The reason its popular among little kids is because you can suck at it, and just run around the field sucking, and no one even notices. Baseball puts the kid on the spot and mommy doesn't like that any more [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You europeans shoudl just learn soccer is a highlly flawed game and AMERICANS are the sophisticated ones for beign the only country to realize it's total crap... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Again, it's because soccer is the most forgiving sport to kids who suck at it. Mainly because 99% of everything you do on a soccer field doesn't matter, kind of like how the game is at the pro level.

Cue to the Europeans telling me "Pyramidscheme you dont get it" and the 89 mintues of running around kicking the ball back and forth is meanigful. lol

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

Cricket!
God God damnit damnit!

Also, [censored] all Americans who don't understand football.

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

As this game's moderator, it's not my place to point out how retarded PyramidScheme is. It's more forgiving to play 90 minutes of soccer where you constantly chase the ball, mark your opponent, or try to make some space for yourself than 90 minutes of American football of which you spend 88 minutes sitting on the bench and 2 minutes on the scrimmage line getting in the way of some other fat kid? A very valid opinion imo.

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

Roundtower, Pyramids sport of choice is baseball. I don't want to get in the middle of a baseball vs soccer argument, I just want to start it [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

5. A film set during World War II

Some of the greatest films of all time have been set during this period of our history. At least one recent blockbuster that always comes up in Sheep games was also set in this time. The correct answer was of course

http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/1...escape2pi9.jpg

which got one answer, from an Australian who had presumably like me seen it on channel 7 the night before. In fact I wouldn't have written this question if I hadn't also seen the film that night.

However more of you put

and I will reluctantly award you some points.

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

they are both pretty boring imo.

Baseball obviously takes a lot more skill (nobody can argue with this). And soccer takes more athleticism.

Soccer is probably the most boring though. The only sport less exciting to watch is golf.

In Arizona this is most certainly NOT the case btw. Baseball is played year-round and beats the other sports by a large margain imo. I suspect this is also true in Southern California.

6. A film set before the year 0 AD

I'd often wondered where they got the contestants for "Are you smarter than a fifth grader?". After seeing some of the responses to this question, I began to get an inkling. After some of the responses to question 9, I was certain.

hmmm,

not sure about the other roman films either...

Re: Sheep Reveal Friday 23
 

Ben Hur is def wrong, I misread the question.
He lived at the same time as Jesus

In fact I read the question. Answered some others and only thought "around the time of Jesus". That'll happen if you don't care :P

with one unfortunate ham sandwich eater falling behind, we have a clear leader at half time in jjp. However the rest of the leaderboard is wide open, and one slip by jjp could see any of half a dozen players leapfrogging him. But it's time for your mod to go to sleep. More reveal in the early afternoon.
