I'd still say it's fine, but I Am Not A Religious Authority so if you're worried it wouldn't hurt to check.

I think the sheep game is a place where you test your skill with almost no luck involved. so it’s more like a blood sport than anything.

Holy moly. I had completely forgotten about this game until I got home from work last night, and dashed off an entry in about five minutes. I might have even taken first if I'd gotten my supreme court case right, or remembered Tiffany existed. I don't know whether to be proud or ashamed.

I'll plan on shipping out the hats to everyone shortly, probably on Saturday. I would totally want to see more results/breakdowns. Past sheep games had some build ups by revealing all the answers.

Can you do a question by question tally of answers? Other sheep games usually do this and it's fun seeing the breakdowns, plus the joke responses. Thanks again for running this pancakes.

Alright, let's have some final standings and hypotheticals: 103 - The Agronox 97 - The Iron Llama 87 - PostNouveau 86 - Grizzled Patriarch 83 - BrianBoitano 81 - World War Mammories 78 - Brigadier Sockface 73 - Misogynice Job! 72 - Shear Modulus 71 - Chokes McGee 71 - tubamortis 70 - Saladin Rising 70 - Pikavangelist 64 - C. Everett Koop 60 - Maxwells Demon 58 - Mayor Dave 57 - Sundae 50 - Billzasilver 49 - Reality Loser 47 - best giraffe 46 - blankets 44 - Comrayn 40 - El Mero Mero 37 - mao zedong thot 36 - Ol Standard Retard 29 - True Blue Triumph* 15 - Selious 9 - BrownieMinusEye 8 - Meatbag Esq. 8 - Hoot the Owl 7 - Yossarian-22 5 - Panic! at Nabisco 4 - redneck nazgul 3 - Crazycryodude 1 - Serfer* * Did not qualify for Shooting the Moon. The Iron Llama posted:Holy moly. I had completely forgotten about this game until I got home from work last night, and dashed off an entry in about five minutes. I might have even taken first if I'd gotten my supreme court case right, or remembered Tiffany existed. Interesting question. What would it have taken for someone other than The Agronox to win? I'll assume no changes to Agronox's ballot. If The Iron Llama had picked Jackie Robinson they would have won. Picking Tiffany rather than Barron wouldn't have done it, they'd have still lost, just by 3 points rather than 6. If PostNouveau had picked Phantom Menace and Duterte they'd have won by 1 point. If Grizzled Patriarch had picked California and Brown v. Board they'd have won by 1 point. BrianBoitano would have come in 3rd place if they'd only picked Scalia's dissent in Obergefell. That plus FDR would have won. Who can Crazycryodude thank for their Shooting the Moon? Yossarian-22 and Maxwells Demon pushed redneck nazgul up over the edge with their answers of Ivanka Trump. The most uniform answer at the top of the standings was RBG. You have to go down 9 entries before you find someone who didn't have her, then another 6 for the next one. Both of those non-RBG entries are for Sotomayor. I was really shocked that The Agronox won without Scalia's dissent in Obergefell. That seemed like a really strong early contender for the most disproportionately-scoring answer. Blue states dominate the top of the standings, with the first answer that isn't a blue state coming 19 slots down with an alternate reality, still before any red state. For those curious, a dozen custom PISS TAPE IS REAL hats will run you about $300 at Custom Ink, including tax and shipping. Like I said, I had too much time and money on my hands.

And in a separate post, answer popularity for select questions. Other questions to follow, I mostly just don't want to hunt down the Tweet links tonight and want to have some content to go along with the Tweets later on.

Who is the best pre-Trump US President? 7 posters said FDR 5 posters said Trump 3 posters said William Henry Harrison 3 posters said LBJ 2 posters said Taft 2 posters said Millard Filmore 2 posters said Lincoln Benjamin Harrison, George Bush, John Tyler, William McKinley, Bill Clinton, James Monroe, Teddy Roosevelt, Barack Obama, Jefferson Davis, George Washington, the President from "24" and Ed Balls all received one vote. 2. What is the best non-US country in the world currently recognized by the UN as of 1/12/2018? 6 posters said Canada 4 posters said Norway 2 posters said Russia 2 posters said Japan 2 posters said the USA 2 posters said Germany 2 posters said Israel 2 posters said Sweden St. Vincent, Oman, France, South Korea, Seychelles, Kenya, The Holy See, Nauru, Kazakhstan, Australia, North Korea, Chad and Ed Balls all received one vote. 3. Who is the best justice currently sitting on the Supreme Court of the United States as of 1/12/2018? 15 people said RBG 5 people said Gorsuch 3 people said Breyer 3 people said Thomas 3 people said Sotomayor 2 people said Kagan Alito, Kennedy, Zombie Scalia and Ed Balls all received one vote. Everyone, myself included, forgot about Roberts.

Answer popularity, part two: 4. What is the best majority opinion issued by the Supreme Court of the United States? 10 people said Brown v. Board 3 people said Dred Scott 2 people said Roe v. Wade 2 people said Loving v. Virginia 2 people said Plessy v. Ferguson 2 people said Marbury v. Madison We had one vote apiece for Neal v. Delaware, Artuz v. Bennett, Lawrence v. Texas, Corn Products v. Commissioner, Nix v. Hedden (You misspelled this one, goon, and said "Haden". That's some tomato, er, egg on your face), I am the Beast, Inc. v. Michigan State Police, Rubin v. Coors, Hollister v. Benedict, One 1958 Plymouth Sedan v. Pennsylvania, Skinner v. Railway Lab, Obergefell v. Hodges and Ed Balls. We also had one person submit the "I know it when I see it" case, which is actually a concurrence by Potter Stewart. One person voted for Citizens United, but foolishly only voted one time. If you'd been clever enough to say that you were voting 30 different times for Citizens United via 30 different shell companies I probably would have awarded you the points, Comrayn. 5. What is the saltiest dissenting opinion issued by a justice of the Supreme Court of the United States? 14 people said Scalia in Obergefell 5 people said Scalia in Lawrence v. Texas 2 people said Scalia in PGA Tour 1 person said Scalia in Windsor There was a theme with this question. Other dissents listed, all receiving one vote, were Strong in Neal v. Delaware, Thomas in Tharpe v. Sellers, Thomas in Brown v. Entertainment Merchants, RBG in Shelby County, Holmes in Myers, Harlan in Plessy v. Ferguson, Clark in Reid v. Covert and Butler in Samuels v. McCurdy. We also had one vote apiece for International Salt Co v. US, Roe v. Wade and US v. Approximately 64,694 Pounds of Shark Fins, none of which are dissents. Another person submitted Potter Stewart's "know it when I see it" for this answer which is, as stated, a concurrence. Ed Balls also received one vote. 6. Who has been the best Pope in the history of the Catholic Church? 7 people voted for Francis 4 people voted for Formosus 4 people voted for Peter 2 people voted for Alexander VI 2 people voted for John Paul II 2 people voted for John XXIII Anastasius IV, Fabian, Stephen VI, Agapetus II, Trump, Paul II, Sixtus, Lucius III, Urban II, Pius XXII, Jude Law, Ed Balls and Hitler all received one vote. There was also a vote for "All Popes Suck" which honestly, thanks to the Boston Globe, we already knew. Sadly, no one voted for Celestine V, who was a crazy hermit who quit the papacy to go live in a cave. His successor feared having two living Popes was a threat to his power so he called for his arrest, which caused to Celestine to flee deeper into the mountains until he was eventually captured, imprisoned and died in a castle. Poor Hermit Pope just wanted to go back to his cave. 7. What is the best of the 50 United States of America? 12 people voted for California 3 people voted for Rhode Island 2 people voted for Oregon 2 people voted for Washington 2 people voted for New Jersey 2 people voted for New York 2 people voted for Hawaii Delaware, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Massachusetts and Connecticut all received one vote. So did Puerto Rico, Canada, USA of America, Earth 3 and Ed Balls. I always thought SA skewed Midwestern in its demographics but this question really went against that impression. 8. What comic book character is most similar to Trump? 6 people said Trump 2 people said MODOK 2 people said Red Skull 2 people said Dr. Doom Dr. Soonpoon, Otto Octavius, Superboy Prime, Luanna, Batman, Grandpa Simpson, Kingpin, Booster Gold, Penguin, Garfield, Superman, KGBeast, Jughead, Ronald Reagan, Todd from Achewood, Edward Bear, Bouncing Boy (Or lad, whichever. Despite owning a copy of Adventure Comics 247 I don't know all my Legionnaires that well), Paste Pot Pete, Richie Rich, Ed Balls and the Smiler all got one vote. Lex Luthor got only one vote despite literally being elected president after being an evil, bald billionaire in the comic books! How was Sundae the only one to vote for Luthor? No one voted for Bill the Cat. Ack. Thppt. 9. Which of Trump's children is the best? 12 people voted for Tiffany. Well, actually 11 people voted for Tiffany and one voted for "The one who doesn't do anything", which I counted as Tiffany. 9 people voted for Barron. 3 people voted for Don Jr. 3 people voted for Ivanka 2 people voted for Eric 2 people submitted votes that I counted as equal: The ones swallowed by Melania and the aborted one we never hear about Receiving one vote apiece were an illegitimate child in Eastern Europe, Ed Balls, r/TheDonald and Trump himself, acting as his own father like a story from Greek mythology.
