NEW GAME! Boxing Sheep III 06/07 Deadline 14:40pm

First topic message reminder :

New thread as the other one is locked.

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 who's surname begins with P
Name a boxer who's surname begins with Q
Name a boxer who's surname begins with R
Name a boxer who's surname begins with S
Name a boxer who's surname begins with T
Name a boxer who's surname begins with U
Name a boxer who's surname begins with W
Name a boxer who's surname begins with X
Name a boxer who's surname begins with Y
Name a boxer who's surname begins with Z


Everyone welcome please PM me your answers in an unnumbered list by 14:30pm if you want to play. Remember you are looking for the most common answer.

PM TO QUENTINSMONKEY!! Sorry for the short deadline but I finish at 3...

UC just can't hack getting a geeky research question wrong......

Anyway, I'm not a bad loser so if we just agree that Jack Uwey would have clobbered this Urango character we can all move on.

I should pick up a few points with Richard Xylophone anyway, right chaps?

For some reason when you select all on boxrec it only gives inactive or retired boxers. Confusing stuff.

I didnt have enough time to do any proper research.on box rec, typed in the letter and took first one that took my fancy, needless to say im expecting aces on uand x

Mentioned on other thread, but maybe best off here.... If anybody is interested I would be able to host another game for people tonight if you would like.... and of course PP is ok with it seeing as he created the phenom.

The girl is away out with family so I'd be glad of something to do??

Go on then Al, hit us with one.

Grand gimme a few minutes to come up with some questions.... If I mail them to you Union could you put them into the original post or should I just start a new thread?

Start a new thread mate, as Q-Mo's game hasn't finished yet.

Good point will do. Just didnt wanna clutter the page.

Hi all back now - apologies for the delay... will have the results up in a jiffy...

PP, you did put Pacquiao for the first one... will amend all results accordingly...

Closest answer wins - remember to PM me your answers...

How old was Mother Teresa when she died?

No googling!

Would also like to say how much more respect I've got for Union and PP for doing this game regularly as there was a lot more involved than I anticipated...

Ooh, that's tight.

My tiebreak answer is in.

Mine too. Did you adjust my score to say i picked Pacquiao for the first question and not Peterson Quentin?

I did adjust your score PP...

And the answers are in...

Mother theresa was 87 years old when she died so the winning answer was paperpag_puncher with 93... Well done and commiserations to union...

Aww crap, I said 94!

Awesome. Cheers Quentin

Crap. Last question blowout.
