Boxing Sheep NEW GAME 22/06 PM me answers by 3:30pm

Anyone ever play sheep? Basically I'll ask a series of "mainly boxing" related questions and the aim is to answer with the most popular answer. So for example if I asked name a heavyweight champion and 7 people said Ali they would get 7 points. If 5 said Louis they would get 5 points and so on. Whoever gets the most points wins. You would PM me your answers. I've seen it played on other forums and it seems to work well and passes some time.
Seems to be a bit of interest so we'll go again.

I have included the odd non boxing question to jazz it up a bit.

Name a boxer from Scandinavia
Name an active counter puncher
Name a retired counter puncher
Name a fighter who quit in a fight
Name someone who defeated Antonio Margarito
Name an attractive TV character
Name a character from the sitcom "Friends"
Name a U.S state
Name a fight where a Brit beat an American for a title
Name a 606 V2 boxing member whos name is boxing related

Everyone welcome please PM me your answers in an unnumbered list by 3:30pm if you want to play. Remember you are looking for the most common answer.

I was always Young_Towzers favourite. That'll do for me.

Ok have 5 so far. Think I'll need at least 10 for it to work.

I'm not knowledgeable enough about boxing to compete (though it does sound like a fun game) but after reading the title of this thread I'm a bit dissapointed it wasn't what I thought it was

I'll have a go, PP.

Knowledge doesn't really come into it mate. You can use the internet. The trick is to try guess what everyone else is going to answer. I'll stick you down..

Questions ready Paperbag??

They are. I'll give it 10 more minutes and then post them..

Ok there are 7 playing but feel free to PM me answers to the questions below if you fancy playing even if you didn't say you were.. I'll post the results as soon as the 7 who confirmed they are playing send me their answers. Please send me the answers in a vertical unnumbered list. Remember you are looking for the most popular answer and may use the internet (like I could stop you..)

Name someone who Roy Jones Jnr has defeated
Name someone who has defeated Roy Jones Jnr

Really? To guess the most popular answer to each question. You are trying to pick the same answers as the other players. No other purpose but to pass time

Answers sent PP, thanks for your efforts.

What is the prize though?

Not enough uncertainty around in the markets for you Tino? Thought you hedge-funders loved a bit of volatility to bet on??

PS: Did you see your namesake at the weekend? Cracking stuff!

Sorry Bamber had half the results already calculated..

Me and friend were late to go round someone's who bought the PPV, we walked in about 5 mins before the fights so the whole thing ended about 10 mins after we arrived!

Summer doldrums mate. Precious metals are actually relatively quiet at the moment although the equity boys are manic. Plus we have a new graduate that has joined. He is full of enthusiasm and wingding formulas but in reality he is our b!tch and I have him doing all the jobs I hate doing. Have more free time than ever now!

Yes I did see my man Tino Best. Most entertaining innings of the series. He cracks me up.

Dr Gregory House - 38

It was tight at the top but the winner and new 606 V2 Sheep Champion of the world is............... Tina

Thanks to all who entered. I'll do another game if anyone fancys it. No need to say you're in. I'll post questions and if you wanna play PM the answers. I'll set a cut of time and will post results after that. The game can technically go on for days.........

This is brilliant. Much better than the OMPL or the UCPL.

Thanks PP.

I really am great.

Rowley! I must think of that guy more often!

Interestingly, Fearless Bamber who submitted his answers too late shared 7 of the 10 answers with me!

Great stuff PP, and thanks for running it.

Slightly creepy that three people chose Rowley though.



Well done Tino!

No one likes a sore loser, Cane.

I think the results are a robbery. I thought i was well ahead until the last part of the game. Answer Stats shows i was ahead.

Unreal.



Great game, defo play next one!

No prob. Good game.
