 So, what is a sheep game? Here's you answer (shamelessly stolen from forums user Xenophon): What the gently caress is a sheep The game is not complicated. 1. There will be a list of questions at the bottom of this post. The object of the game is to provide the MOST COMMON response from the people playing the game, kind of like Family Feud. You receive one point for each person who provided the same answer. In other words, if the question was "What is best in life," and 10 players said "To crush your enemies," each of those players would receive 10 points. If 5 players said "The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist," they would each receive 5 points. If 1 player said "Hello Kitty," he would receive 1 points (and the public condemnation of his peers). 2. Every question scores points, even if only one. The player with the MOST points, after all the questions are added up, wins the game. 3. There are no right or wrong answers - your job is to provide the MOST COMMON answer. So even if you really, really think that "The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist" is best in life, it might still be in your best interest to answer "To crush your enemies." This means that even a factually incorrect answer can score the most points! You have to decide what you think everyone else will say. 4. Some of the questions are vague - intentionally so! It's your job to interpret them as you think the majority of AI will. Send your answers along with your SA Username (seriously) to AIsheepgame@gmail.com (seriously, make sure your username is in there somewhere!) with the tag Sheep Game in the subject line. Format is important, so please send your answers like this: code:Once you have sent your entry, please post in this thread as confirmation. You have until 11 PM Pacific Time on Wednesday, December 21st (0700 UTC on Thursday, December 22nd) to submit your answers. The big reveal will be in this thread starting at or about 3 PM Pacific Time on Friday, December 23rd (2300 UTC on Friday, December 23rd), so set your calendars/alarm clocks/crude sundials made from old Jeep parts for the big day! I will be doing the reveal two questions per day with each reveal being posted at or about 3 PM Pacific Time, so you have some time to ridicule each other discuss your successes and failures. Without further ado, the questions:
Once again, send your answers to AIsheepgame@gmail.com before 11 PM Pacific Time on Wednesday, December 21st (0700 UTC on Thursday, December 22nd). See you all for the reveal!

Something just occurred to me - if you've had a name change since your last Sheep Game, please include your old username too so that the stats post at the conclusion of the game won't be an exercise in hair-pulling for me.

Sorry, bro! I used to be ShittyPostmakerPro. I like to gamble with those "POST HERE TO CHANGE YOUR NAME" threads. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, right?

MrChips; do you think it would be worthwhile to email previous players to encourage a higher participation? It could be worth a shot.
