Sheep Season 8 - Questions and Results Thread

[beltwayrob]

Okay Sheep, here we go, round one starts on April Fool's Day! No foolin'! I'm a tad disappointed that we let the CREW win both the Champions League and Ewe-EFA Cup, so hopefully this season DC United can take back the cup!

Here are the All-Time Winners for DC Sheep:

Sheep Season 1
League Champion: NattyBo

Sheep Season 2
League Champion: Riz
Champions League: vthokies1996

Sheep Season 3
League Champion: vthokies1996
Sheep Cup: vthokies1996

Sheep Season 4

Sheep Cup: rhwgeek

Sheep Season 6
League Champion: DangerMouse37

Sheep NIT: fatbastard
Sheep-Off!: Abner Ravenwood
Ewe-EFA Champions Cup: warmblooded

Sheep Season 7
League Champion: Wyrm2
Sheep Cup: kascdc
Sheep NIT: marciewil

As always responses are due at NOON on Fridays! I will be sending PM's each week to all participants. Here are the rules of the game and the leagues as they stand for Season 8.

Good Luck,
The Shepherd

How to play: Each Wednesday, for eight weeks, 15 categories/questions will be posted. You send a PM to me with your answers (don't include the questions please) to all 15 categories by noon on Friday of that same week. The goal is not to answer the questions correctly, but to guess what will be the most popular answer. (Example: if the category is "Best Player in MLS" and you think the correct answer is David Beckham, but you think everyone on the DC United board would say Luciano Emilio, then you should answer Luciano Emilio as well.) You will score points based on how many people answer like you. If 15 people answered Luciano Emilio then you'd get 15 points for that question. Whoever scores the most points after all 15 categories will win the week.

Scoring: The weekly winner will get the same number of points as people who entered the game that week. If 25 people played then the winner would get 25 points. Second place would be worth 24 points, third would be worth 23 points, last would be worth 1 point, etc. First place will also receive a 5 point bonus for the win. These points will be accumulated throughout the 8-week season and whoever scores the most will win the league.

Standings: In our league we have three tiers. The Sheep Premier League, Sheep Championship and Sheep League One. The top four players in the Sheep Premier League will qualify for the Champions League. People finishing 5th-7th qualifying for the Ewe EFA Champions Cup. We also have promotion and relegation between all tiers. Three spots will change places between the Premier League and Championship, and four places will change place between the Championship and League One.

Sheep Version 8.1

Happy April Fools Day! No this is not a trick, Week 1 is here and this time I'm trying a little something different. Hopefully I can keep it up for 8 weeks! I'm trying a theme for questions for each week, and this week the topic is Science!

Please have your responses sent to me via PM by NOON (EDT) on Friday!

Good Luck!

Sheep 8.4: Happy Birthday JoeSoccerFan Edition

I was planning to have questions related to our beloved JSF in honor of his birthday, but it would be completely unfair to those who don't know our Jack Daniel's loving friend. So the next best thing came to mind, how about some soccer/sports questions! YIPPY! Thanks to Lowecifer for a couple of today's questions, and yes I did modify one of his questions to be an E.O.H. (Equal Opportunity Hater).

Enjoy and Happy Birthday Old Man Joe!
