 Click here to go to the start of the reveal! Greetings! Welcome to the Games forum Sheep Game! This is how the game works. I will post a list of 16 statements. Your job is to provide an answer that you think is the best for each statement. BUT! The object of the game is not necessarily to guess the most correct answer. Rather, the object of this game is to give the most common answer that you think will be given by the rest of the players. For each answer you give, you get a number of points equal to the number of people who also gave that answer. If you say "red" and 10 other people say red, you get 11 points. If you say "blue" and no one else said blue, you get 1 point. The poster with the most points at the end of 16 rounds wins! Note that it is in your best interest to not discuss the game in other threads or IRC, lest you tip your hand on what your answers will be! If you are still a little confused, check out these sheep games from D&D, SAS, and AI. Kewpuh has offered free avatar changes for the players who come in the top 5 Want to participate? Great! Please follow this two step process: NO PMs PLEASE). The subject line should include your SA username and "Sheep Game Entry" (e.g. "TheOneAndOnlyT sheep game entry"). Your answers should be in the body of the message. Please submit your answers with one answer on each line, in order, and with no numbers and no questions. This will save me a bunch of editing time.2) Re-read Step 1 and make sure you didn't gently caress it up, or you'll probably get disqualified! Signups are now closed. The deadline for entries is approximately one week; I will post a 24 hour notice before I stop taking submissions. Once submissions are closed I will determine a reveal date. This will be done "liveblog" style, i.e. I'll reveal each round of answers one at a time over the course of a few hours. Once again: DO NOT INCLUDE THE NUMBERS OR QUESTION TEXT ON YOUR ENTRY FORM! Got it? Okay. Here are the statements. Some of these are intentionally fairly vague. It's up to you to decide how you think the rest of Games will interpret them! 1. This video game console is the greatest console ever made. 2. This video game console is the worst console ever made. 3. This person is the one I have the most respect for among people who are/were involved with making video games. 4. This person is/was a blight on the gaming industry and never should have gotten involved with making video games. 5. This video game company is the one I look on most favorably in the gaming industry. 6. This video game company is the one I look on most disfavorably in the gaming industry. 7. If I could bring back one now-defunct video game company and make it successful again, it would be this one. 8. When I think "video games," this video game character is the first one that comes to mind. 9. This video game series is the one I am most disappointed about not receiving a sequel recently. 10. This currently-running video game series was once great, but is now a shadow of its former self, and needs to be ended more than any other. 11. I have put more time into this video game than any other. 12. This video game brings back the fondest memories of playing it with friends. (Answers from the same series will be lumped together for this question.) 13. This video game had a greater long-term impact on gaming as a whole than any other game. 14. If I were on a debate team and had to argue in support of the statement "video games are art," this video game would be the best supporting example. 15. This video game is the worst video game of all time. 16. This video game is the greatest video game of all time. Once again: DO NOT INCLUDE THE NUMBERS OR QUESTION TEXT ON YOUR ENTRY FORM! Undying gratitude goes to C. Everett Koop and pig slut lisa, whose Sheep Game OPs I have heavily plagiarized. Additional thanks to seiferguy for sending me the Sheep Game software to make this easier. Good luck! TheOneAndOnlyT fucked around with this message at 02:00 on Mar 26, 2015 |

To steal from yet another Sheep Game OP, here's an example. If the questions were: Example questions posted:1. What is your favorite color? Example answers posted:Red

This looks like fun, sent my entry in. I'll be really interested to see what other people put. Question 9 and 14 were the toughest ones for me. I think I got a pretty good answer for 9 but 14 is probably gonna cost me a lot of points.
