Sheep Quiz

[pv4]

alright peeps, something for a bit of fun. i stole this idea from somewhere else - i'm sure sydney fc fans will say they did it first (i have no idea if they've done it).

THE SHEEP QUIZ!!!!!!!

split into two segments - white sheep & black sheep. in white sheep, the goal is to get the answer that you think everyone else will post (ie if your answer is the same as 10 others, you get 10 points, whereas if your answer is the same as 1 other you get 1 point). in black sheep, it's the opposite - you want your answer to be unique and not answered the same as anyone else (1 point deduction for every other poster who answers the same). i ask the question in the thread, you guys pm me the answers.

example..

WHITE SHEEP ROUND
q: name a capital city of australia.
a: 6 people say sydney (each one gets 5 points), 3 people say canberra (each gets two points), 2 people say perth (1 point each), 1 person says bangkok (judged by me to be a false answer, gets 0 points)

BLACK SHEEP ROUND
q: name a soft drink.
a: 1 person says lift (0 points), 3 people say coke (minus 2 points to all of those 3 people), 6 people say doctor pepper (minus 5 points), etc, etc. will deal a 5 point deduction for an answer i consider to be incorrect.


who is keen? register your interest by saying "awwww yeah" in this thread. hoping to get ~10 people, so it's at least interesting. will chuck up questions when i get enough people registered. after registration i'll chuck up the question(s) and leave them open until all registered people have answered, then post results.

also - the subject of questions will vary a bit. i'm going to attempt to have it relatively football-based, but there'll be random questions also, like the examples i posted.

[Bon]

awwww yeah

10. pv4 :D

[pv4]

if i play, it means you're going to have to trust that i submit my answers to myself before receiving anyone elses answers, and don't change them. i'll play, just trust i'm honest about it.

i'll put up the questions soon, i think 10 players is a pretty good number. PM me your answers (don't give hints or anything in this thread) and just post in here saying you've sent your answers when you're finished (giving the thread a megabump). anyone who hasn't registered as of yet, but wants to, just send me your answers via PM and i'll consider you registered also - at least for this first round of questions. i'll leave the first round open until everyone who is registered has answered, then i'll postresults and the next round of q's up. feel free to chat about the results when they came out (ie - arrggh gaz, can't believe you chose dr pepper aswell!).

[pv4]

alright, round 1 of the sheep quiz! white sheep is pretty straight forward, just attempt to pick the most popular answer. but black sheep is tricky - sometimes what seems to be the answer that everyone would go for, is actually the one no one would go for.


WHITE SHEEP (try to answer what you think everyone else will answer)
Q1. Name a Brazilian who has played in the A-League (any team, any season)
Q2. Name a male member of the Fox Sports team that covers the A-League (can include commentators, sideline reporters, panelists on shows, etc)
Q3. Name a song by the band Coldplay

BLACK SHEEP (try to answer what you think no one else will answer)
Q4. Name a player that has scored in a HAL Grand Final (scoring in a penalty shootout not included, but Extra Time goals are acceptable)
Q5. Name one of the 32 participant teams in the 2006 World Cup in Germany
Q6. Name a current or former Prime Minister of Australia whose first or last name features the letters "D" and/or "H"

PM me your answers, post in here that you've submitted. gogogogo

peoples that haven't registered but want to - you can do likewise and i'll consider you registered.

any questions you have on the wording/meaning of questions, let me know. especially for the black sheep questions, which will incur a 5 point deduction for an answer i consider to be wrong

[Grimario]

In, sorry I missed this.

[pv4]

forgot to mention - once you send an answer to me, that's locked in. no changing.

[Chadandkira12]

Gogogogo

[Jeterpool]

You make the question, then simply respond immediately before reading any of the PMs.

It's a bit of fun mate :) but if you win you'll forever be known as a cheat... he he

[Bon]

Yep, sheep has been shagged..

yep, that's what i've done/plan to do.

got some weird looks from the people around me when i read one of the pms and yelled out "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE THAT ONE" at one of the pms i've received so far :lulz:

[Bon]

and yelled out "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE THAT ONE" at one of the pms i've received so far :lulz:

That better not have been mine, ya prick.. :sparring:

[russjaybee]

In like flynn braaaaaaa

[pv4]

will clarify one question for errybody - by 32 participants, i meant teams.

if you've answered a player, i won't deduct you points for changing it to a country. going easy on everybody for it being rd1

[MFKS]

mfkfc - is you in?

russjaybee? bodynovo? grimario? anyone else?

Count me in depending on when you are holding it. Be out of action Friday >>Sunday

Heading to Brisbane for the weekend to watch some shitty football team try and keep a clean sheet. Hopefully also catch some more Tarago dance moves!!

[GazFish35]

whats did i score?

[pv4]

well the first round has begun. there's no official stop time per round, just when all the participants have answered. chuck me your answers, colonel

when everyone has answered i'll chuck up results fish

[MFKS]

Sent mine through

I am EXPECTING you to hold up my suggestion of a penalty if the answer to one of the questions was what I put in

[parksey]

i'll do mine later

[WolfMan]

Done, cheers

[Buddha]

too late to join?

[pv4]

nope all good. probably waiting on two or three more of the original 9, and I'll post results & hand out a new round.

if you didn't register already & are keen to join, do so before the last few get their answers in!

[true waterboy]

im keen

[pv4]

got some great answers in so far

i believe i'm waiting on nelson bay road & red mexican, and then we're done. you two (plus any others keen to rego) - get your answers in by monday morning. if you've pm'd me already, re-pm me if cool because i've lost it

[goaliepersempre]

Can I say an aww yeah and get involved?

[pv4]

awwww yeah

[GazFish35]

Set a time limit on the next one.

[pv4]

yep i'll set a clearly-defined deadline for the next one. this one has only been going for <24 hours currently, and we've nearly all answered already.

the stragglers have until monday morning to submit r1 answers, and i'll probably give a 48hour deadline from the posting of questions for each other round.

[pv4]

i'm gonna give an update, to keep everyone's interest up yet i don't think give anything away for the last few people to answer..

there's been 17 people answer so far.
one of the white sheep questions has been answered the same by 13 people.
one of the black sheep questions has been answered the same by 8 people.

[pv4]

alright, the results. for those that didn't get in - make sure you do for next round!

lol jeterpool - same old pv4, always cheating.

mfks wants everyone (inc himself) to be penalised for answering yellow in the coldplay question as its gypo. i'll try & not have such a gay question (thanks rocknerd) next time round.

any feedback? want more/less of certain questions? will hopefully post up next round this arvo.

cheers

[BodyNovo]

everyone that answer yellow, deadset gypsies.

[Bon]

everyone that answer yellow, deadset gypsies.

Well if you are going for that train of thought, then anyone that voted for Bosnich (who played for the gypos) is just as guilty..
Maybe pv4 should get -10 for putting his answer of Pondeljak down? :tongue:

[GazFish35]

Feedback.

Great!

5 questions in each category next time.
Good job pv4

[russjaybee]

Awesome stuff man! Derp @ Tiago, didn't even come to mind lol, I thought Denni first of all haha.

[Bon]

I was telling PV4 how I was going to put down Berisha for the Grand final scorer question, but thought it would be too obvious..
Now I am highly regretting putting down Freekick Specialist as it seems everyone else wanted to do the same.. Blowing up..

[Retro Jet]

I looked through the answers and had a chuckle at the A-League GF goal scorer list.
Grim was the only person with A.Thompson as their choice.....Scores 5 in one game and only one person remembered it?

[Jeterpool]

I looked through the answers and had a chuckle at the A-League GF goal scorer list.

I thought Archie was too obvious. Sometimes that tactic can work though

[Grimario]

I went with it because I thought it was the obvious answer and therefore everyone would avoid it... and correct I was!

[Bon]

I thought Archie was too obvious. Sometimes that tactic can work though

Yeah thats exactly it.. You look at it and think "well, everyone will pick that, so I better go for this lesser known one"..
But then realise everyone is thinking the same.. haha.. I guess thats the fun of the game..
I'm dirty that PV4 chose Sweden the same as me.. I should have gone for my initial choice of Togo after all!

[pv4]

it's tricky business, the old black sheep quiz. i was debating whether to go pondeljak, paartalu or henrique but thought the gypo-killers would be too obvious. would have been sweet with any of them!

haha i was so close to going cote d'ivoire, but then thought "no one is going european teams, they're all going african teams" & as i mentioned earlier in the thread i let a good yell out when i saw you'd answered the same!

gg all.

i might bump it up to 8 questions each round, see how we go with that.

[Jeterpool]

When is the next round?

[pv4]

will post up new questions pretty soon.

will give a 48hour after-posting deadline to answer. anyone can join in, just PM me your answers

48hours is cool, yeah? most/all people answered the last one within that timeframe anyway, but two "registered" people missed out and are still to give me answers.

[russjaybee]

48hrs is swell.

[Bon]

Yeah, thats perfect mate..
Is it just to see who wins the round? (like for bragging rights, or to get stuck in to others who put the same answer as you, haha)
Or is this all going to accumulate and tally up?

[pv4]

we'll have a round winner and i'll accumulate it aswell - see how long the novelty lasts for

[parksey]

seems like buddha didn't really get this game

[pv4]

Sick Juan! Top work pv4.

Lulz Rocknerd... how...

[pv4]

http://i50.tinypic.com/jkvpn4.png

take into consideration extra q's in r2 etc

also, especially the case from round 1 - not playing COULD be an advantage to you as seen with gps getting minus points. but yeah, have fun with those stats yall

[Bon]

Bloody hell.. I got absolutely fist-pumped this round..
What a crock of shit! hahaha

[BodyNovo]

better stuff. Good game, keep them coming pv4

[Bon]

Somehow I just KNEW that PV4 would choose the same bloody moon of Uranus as me..
New questions.. I need to redeem myself! :gent:

[goaliepersempre]

pretty sure seeing that it doesnt involve me a wrong answer in black sheep should be more than -1 point :P

[Jeterpool]

Gah!!!! Wolfman has been ousted as my multi!!

[russjaybee]

Ok I have a question, with the Black Sheep Q's the amount of other people that got the same as you is taken away from your score correct?

Doesn't that mean it's advantageous to actually give an incorrect answer ala Rocknerd Titus moon from R2?
IMO giving an incorrect answer should penalise you maximum amount for that question, eg if someone else got -5 for that Q you should get -5.

[pv4]

i'm going back to 6 questions for next round. 8 was too much to handle, plus i'll run out of material if i smash through them too quickly!

will probably post up new questions today or tomorrow, in the meantime use your posting to abuse people for guessing the same as you.

btw a few people apparently didn't know who grinderman was - check them out! check out all of nick cave's stuff

i'm also adding another little dimension to this game - will explain when i post up next round

ah dam i just realised i didn't do this. it's meant to be -5 per wrong answer. i will fix

EDIT: wait a minute, i did do this. you get -5 for a wrong answer in black sheep, and a 0 in white sheep. rocknerd was penalised in q5 and q8, chadandkirra was penalised in q6, buddha was penalised in q7

we can change it to being penalised the max amount if people want it though? -5, or max taken away for incorrect black sheep question gaiz?

-5 or max taken away whichever is greater lol

[Bon]

Fk you guys, no1 else is meant to pull the reverse psychology card and choose the most obvious answer, NO ONE.

Yeah i am dirty about this one too! In round one, I was going to say "Berisha" but held back cause I thought it was too obvious..
Noone picked him.. So i thought "Well, might aswell go the most obvious this time, cause noone will want to"..
WRONG..

[russjaybee]

You could probably argue John Aloisi is the obvious answer and guess what, NO ONE PICKED HIM FFS.

[pv4]

aloisi would have been a wrong answer anyway

i thought the obvious one would have been popovic or culina, popovic for getting dragged & culina for being ex-jerk.

[MFKS]

Was surprised my answer of Timmy Cahill held up thought that would have been picked up by someone



The old reverse psychology with the NBN/New FM team to go for the Jets Yoof let us down

Still can't believe so few of you picked Sasho for the ACL signings. Glad I stayed away from Donny De Groot who was my initial thought

Sick Juan! Top work pv4.

Lulz Rocknerd... how...

Firstly, I was going off of personal knowledge and so not knowing anything about NNSW league, it was a stab in the dark. As for Titus, I got my planets mixed up and failed.

round 3 bitches


WHITE SHEEP (try to answer what you think everyone else will answer)
Q1. Newcastle Jets players were able to pick a song that would be played when they scored at home for the 2012-2013 season. Apart from Heskeys song (Kanye West - All of the Lights), name one of the celebration songs.
Q2. Apart from New Zealand, name one of the 10 other entrants in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification process who is apart of the OFC (Oceania) zone
Q3. Name an undergraduate degree available to study at the Callaghan Campus of the University of Newcastle (list of undergrad courses for the entire uni found here: http://newcastle.edu.au/degrees/#level-undergraduate&utm_source=browse-degrees-search-box&utm_medium=web&utm_content=browse-degrees-undergraduate&utm_campaign=future-students-our-degrees)

BLACK SHEEP (try to answer what you think no one else will answer)
Q4. Name a player who has gotten game time in a HAL season game for the Jets this season
Q5. Name a kit manufacturer of an English Premier League club (eg ISC, Kooga, Reebok, etc).
Q6. On the Triple J website there are 24 people listed as Presenters in the "People" page - name one of them.


same as always - pm me your answers. if you haven't played up till now, just pm me answers and i'll consider you joined.

a little twist to this round - you know when you send a pm and you have to fill out the subject line? the most creative/funny subject i read, that person gets 5 points. it can be about anything - sheep, quizzes, the questions, totally unrelated, etc. the subject that gets the biggest laugh from me, gets 5 points.

also - jeterpool graciously offered to help me out with more material for questions. i've got another round in me on my own, but afterwards i'll be thinking up more. if you can think of a question that you think would go down well in this quiz, whether it be black or white sheep, send it to me via pm (don't ruin the surprise by posting it in here). it's pretty obvious that i try to have the majority of questions about football, as non-football ones are easy to make up, so try & send me football-related questions if possible.

cheers, and good luck this round! someone knock me off my perch

EDIT: deadline for answering is this time monday.

also, from now on if you get an answer wrong in black sheep it's a deduction of points thats equal to the biggest deduction for an answer (ie if 10 people answer the same, they all receive -9 and so does the wrong answerer) or if less than 6 people answer the same, a -5 deduction will be taken

Good job Pv4!

[parksey]

some really dubious people on this forum. for example, who could possibly pick solomon islands over american samoa?

the song one was hard so i just went with the one that was actually funny. do they even play these at games?

[pv4]

i noticed they were playing different songs for each different goalscorer in the yoof v ccm game the other week - i assume they do play them for the first team. can't honestly say i remember hearing them played at home - however it seems so long since we scored at home i can barely remember who the last person to do so was. was it heskey(x2) v victory?

[parksey]

yeah i haven't noticed them at all.

also no one said nike ffs.

If you notice the song being played you are missing out. Should be doing your nut when we score like I am. If I ever hear the songs it will only becasue we are 5-0 down and bag a consolation in the last few mins and I am still there.

ALso glad to see my Drop Goody agenda helped as No One else bar me named him for Q4

American Samoa FFS Archie scored like 13 goals against them FFS people

[pv4]

WHITE SHEEP (try to answer what you think everyone else will answer)
Q1. Besides Heskey, ADP & Ono, name a current marquee (international, australian or junior) player in the HAL
Q2. Name a team who currently does not compete in the EPL but has done so in the EPL era
Q3. Name a song by the Arctic Monkeys

BLACK SHEEP (try to answer what you think no one else will answer)

Q5. There were 9 Manchester United players to survive the Munich air disaster. Name one of them.
Q6. Name an actor who has played James Bond (in an Eon Production film -see wiki).

for bonus points this round, in the subject line of your pm i want you to give me the best piece of random trivia you have. you know, the best pub ammo. eg: pigs orgasms last 10 hours, barbie's middle name is millicent, the original singer of acdc was dave evans, etc. that sorta stuff. can be football-related or non-football-related. best one gets 5 points, and if there's some decent ones i'll share them around.
