Sheep Game

#1 Post by Scurra » Tue Dec 15, 2009 11:24 am

I think it's about time we had a go at one of these.

The object of this game is to think like other people. For each of the categories below, you should submit 5 (five) words or phrases associated with that category which you think other people will also choose. You will score a point for each other person that chooses the same answer as you, and the object is to score the most points (and not the fewest points!!)

Note that singular and plural forms of words will be counted as different words (so “Cat” and “Cats” are not the same), but words that are obviously meant to be the same answer will be counted as such (so “Dr, Watson” and “Doctor Watson” will be considered the same.)

Please send your answers in the form:

1. Cat, Dog, Rabbit, Horse, Gerbil
2. Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune
etc.


Your categories are:

1. Alphabet
2. Bridge
3. Christmas
4. Circus
5. Rock
6. Spain
7. Square
8. Tarot
9, Tube
10. Walt Disney
11. Winter
12. Zodiac

entries so far from

Bunnylump, Cenwulf, chazzie, evilkeen, fernando, gill216, giraffe, kathlyn, kingsley, LAT, Laura, MBH, Wulfruna

Well I will have a go but I'm HOPELESS at this game. I don't think my mind works the same way as other people's. SOME (ahem) might think it's because my mind doesn't work. :lol: Hey ho.

Whereas I have been found to be remarkably sheepish and unoriginal in the past. :roll:
Yup I shall give it a go again.

I'm still prepared to bet you do better than I do. And I spent ages thinking about it too!! (Although it's usually the case that the more I think about things the worse I get!) :lol:
