The author question is a sick joke, right?

If all of you try to name the most famous author of the 20th Century, do you really think it'll be split 10 ways at the top?

lol
close!
but really, i like action and high scores. i like when theres a no brainer answer and people miss it and get buried(i dont like it when it happens to me, but whatever). like the underwear question, its red or black. red is the true sheep answer, but people who said pink should get shot.

I'm pretty sure your proposed questions required too much thought for him to consider them ideal

I guess an ideal game would have 2 or 3 questions with a good (60-70%) majority, and the rest that you have to think about that are in the 35-50% range.

I'll work on doing that for the playoffs.

Terp,

It's a totally inexact science, really. I wouldn't sweat it, I'm just saying I find this week tougher than most.

LOL, the other 90% are putting OJ Simpson! (Would be higher, but I figure EskmioSickness, Skjonne, and kokiri have trouble, and mute names a soccer player. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )

I guess im the exception around here. everybody else seems to think questions with a great chance of having 6-10 different answers are good questions. well, they may be good (difficult) questions, but they aren’t good (sheep) questions imo (no offense to anybody of course). questions that have a really good chance that everybody gets approximately the same amount of points are worthless imo. why have a question that everybody scores 8 points (or everybody gets the same answer even) on? 12 questions like that and we end up with a coin flip for the win.
sheep questions should have 2-3 clear choices and its up to us to decide the best sheep answer. the bad sheep players get weeded out when they say “pink” for the panty color.
bad sheep questions:
a brand of facial tissue. (this is bad because practically everybody will have the same answer)
a brand of toilet tissue. (bad because theres too many)

good sheep question:
pink ______ (good because theres only 2 or 3 real sheep answers, but plenty of chances for people to screw up)

im not angry or complaining, just sayin

One of the funniest answers I've ever seen was "pink taco" ... so awesome.

Question: Terp, would it be against the spirit of the game if I were to murder everyone ahead of me in the standings, or otherwise incapacitate them? I think that is my best strategy at this point since I am not smart enough to hack into the PMs and change all their answers.
