We have 8 players per team, give yourselves a chance to team bond while I explain the totally over complicated way we'll be playing this game!

The game will run on week nights, questions will be posted at approx 7pm Sun to Thurs, and reveals will be 8pm Mon to Fri. You'll have 24 hours to get your answers in by PM, basically until the next round is posted.

Unlike previous rustling games, there will be 8 questions for each team in each round, and every player will be rustling.

Your team scores points for every answer with multiple team members, as the usual sheep, but aces will score 0.

On the rustle, you will each answer a single question of the other team. Your aim is to try to guess the sheep, and thus steal those points away! For newcomers, this becomes clearer as we play.

Because everyone is rustling, I will assign each player a number and that will be the opposing question you'll rustle. So you'll PM the 8 answers for your own team plus your assigned rustle from the other teams questions.

Oh, google/search of your choice is allowed on all questions.

I'll sort everything else!

The rounds for this game are;
Movies
Books
Sport
Trivia
Geography
History
Science
Art
TV
Animals
Ireland
Colours
Food

Phew! Anyone else who wishes to play, please let me know today and I'll pop you in.

First round questions, as well as team numbers, at 7pm!

Neo's sneaky edit:

Quote:Questions:
Round 1 Movies
Round 2 Books
Round 3 Sport
Round 4 Trivia
Round 5 Geography

Love sheep rustling! Even though I'm crap at rustling...really looking forward to this🥳

Have to get a bottle of this in for later in the game 😉

Liz, you need to send me answers to all 8 red questions and q4 of the blue set (that's your rustle)

Totally random I'm sure.... right @nothing

Completely random and coincidental...

I was trying to remember what the best strategy was in this type of game, but I don't think I ever knew it Big Grin

Sorry nothing, j won't be able to participate at this point in time, next two weeks will be very hectic...

No bother, will adjust accordingly later. Thanks for letting me know, sorry I'd dragged my feet on it so much!

It's easy, just pick what you think is the most popular answer. Unless of course you think that'll get rustled, then pick the 2nd most popular. But then that might get rustled so you could choose the 3rd most popular, but then you could probably get away with the most popular.. repeat this thought process for about an hour and submit some random answer that ends up getting rustled Wink

No problem I get it in soon

I just know that the blues are excited that I'm on their team 💙

I've always been on the losing team but I'm relying on Nitters to turn the tide. 😁

Isn't it sheep rustling tradition that we don't run on time? Part of its charm Smile

It seems Sephers is on the blue team so I vehemently object! 😁😁

Once again, you have until 7pm tomorrow to PM your answers (strictly)!

My PC and I are still not friends, so mainly revealing etc on my phone, for tonight!

Thanks for the tag @nothing sorry but couldn't commit to the game atm. Was great fun in the previous games.

Best of luck To both teams 💙❤

Ok, I have the pre-rustle scores tabulated, going to give @Neowise til10pm to get some answers in, and I need a rustle answer from @Cj maxx too please Big Grin

Curently, pre-rustle scores are very very close

In the grand tradition of many of my games, it's gotten too late for reveal, I have underestimated it, and my energy levels! Double reveal tomorrow night, so I can get to the library tomorrow to do piles of typing, and only need to slot in bits for the rest of the week!

No problem at all Nothing, whenever suits you. There's a serious amount of work gone into this, you're basically doing a full game every night

P.s. please remember how understanding I was when bonus point time comes around

I, too, am incredibly understanding, and yet again am displaying my legendary patience. 🙃
