SHEEP Playoffs - Week 4 of 5 (Friday Reveal)

[jjp]

I can't believe no one else put fight club

[UMTerp]

And JCool takes it down! Guess it pays to take this game seriously. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] 6 of the Top 8 are Championship Contenders too. Patton4 survives his Michigan answer to finish on the podium again. And a nice finish by relative Sheep newcomer aragorn_j in second. My next post will have the updated standings, and some discussion about the scenarios for next week.

If we were all answering in Mandarin, Lee and Li would be the same, but assuming that no one did that, Lee and Li are different names in English and they definitely do not have the same popularity.

Good point!

No, it's not, because you specifically said Asian name, not English spelling of an Asian name. If you had said English spelling of an Asian name, this would be a problem, but that's not the question you gave us!

Alex is owning this argument

[ScottHoward v3.1]

i should be shot for how pathetically some of you guys play

[Dudd]

I still can't believe swimsuit didn't win, ARE YOU All CRAZY?!?!

[UMTerp]

AlexM, I'm not changing it, but we'll obviously keep it in mind. You would have finished 3rd this game if I had combined them (which cost you 8 Championship Points to Patton: -3 to +1 differential in the standings, and his 2 bonus points would have been yours). Those points are obviously significant. If it ends up being the difference next week, you still won't "officially" win, but you can complain about it for forever, and maybe you can get a Custom Title out of it or something. And every time anybody talks about the Sheep season, you can bring it up in the discussion. It's the best I can do.

I really can't change it though - Alex Jacob was one that PMed me during the week and asked if I would be combining those two. I told him no, because I was thinking in English terms (and I still think my ruling is reasonable, even though you make a good argument as well, give nthe wording of the question.) Lee and Li aren't the same name here. If I had told him "yes", I'm pretty sure he goes with Lee/Li instead of Chan, and he beats you for third anyway. Somebody else asked as well, though I don't recall who.

I also don't want to start a precedent where people fell like they can argue til I change my mind. I've thought about all of these decisions before they come up in the reveal.

1) You don't bring it, you wear it
2) Again: Nude beaches

its assumed that when you go to the beach, that you'd be wearing a swimsuit

its like answering arms for something you bring to the beach. Of course we have arms.

[Hogie]

YOU PUT ON YOUR SWIMSUIT AND SUNBLOCK AND THEN GO TO THE BEACH. YOU DON'T TAKE THEM TO THE BEACH WITH YOU.

GOD YOU'RE ALL IDIOTS.

[traz]

wtf you always bring sunblock to the beach, especially if you plan on getting in the water.

Clearly you suck at going to the beach. The correct answer should've been "a cooler of beer"
