Sheep Week 2: Attack of the Clones

[aaronjennings]

Oh ffs, I might actually get the wooden spoon this time

[nothing]

For Warhammer armies, I've bunched together all the variations of Space Marines which gets a whopping 16 sheep! Beastmen earned you just 2 points and Orcs aced it.

Day 5s final question gave us another good mix. Gnome aced. EN sticks with his double up where possible, and Orcs get 2, as do Dwarves. Dragonborn on 3 and Humans on 4, miss out to our 7 point sheep of Elves

Top 2 remain the same, with our former forerunner Toto dropping another couple places. Trigger is now only 18 behind BuileBeag, but can he over take in the last 2 days? Liz is clinging to the spoon for dear life, not letting anyone else even look at it, but there's still time for everything to change!

FFS, I had Space Marines and Elves but then noticed there were Orcs on both. Sometimes it's like you lot aren't even trying

On the board game topic, if you've not played Pandemic you should try it. We had it before all the madness but the realism now gives it a new edge. It's cooperative, so all the players are a team against the game, it's brilliant

[BuileBeag]

I chose codenames cause they play that here. Ffs. Work with me people!

I played a dwarf for 6 months on a D&D game on boards... WORK WITH ME PEOPLE 

[ShaneU]

My score should be 214. Not that I have a hope of winning but other scores could be wrong too

Oh dear! Sorry ShaneU, I fecked up somewhere, I'll reissue scores in a bit (I might have scored it to the wrong question)

Quick tot up, I'm getting 24 for day 5 plus 185 before, 209 but my thing says 206. I'll go back over, I could have copied something wrong

[Toto Wolfcastle]

I still blame Ryan Tubridy.

Not even going to post the names on Ryan Reynolds Film or Toy Story Actor as all 19 of you went with Deadpool and Tom Hanks!

So, Spielberg films - an ace for Saving Private Ryan, 3 points for the big shark, 5 points for the dinosaurs, but the alien takes the sheep with 10!

6 different responses for MCU writers. I'm afraid you aced if you chose either end of the MCU, Mark Fergus who wrote the first Iron Man or Michael Waldron who wrote Loki. 3 points went to Christopher Markus, who wrote Captain America, Thor and Avengers titles. 4 points if you opted for either Stan Lee, the god of all that is marvel, or James Gunn, the writer of various Guardians of the Galaxy. But our sheep in this round was Joss Whedon, who wrote the first 2 Avengers, and a pile of Agents of SHIELD, and sheeped with 6 points.

Day 7, final question - choose 5 of the below characters! (Any order you like, I'll be grouping by what gives the most advantage to everyone)




Good luck!

How did I completely forget Stan Lee, the marvellous legend

[E.N.]

Finally a respectable day, even if just because everyone gave the same answers

Can't see me climbing out of midtable obscurity now, just glad Kathleen's not playing

Where is she, anyway? She registered but hasn't posted. I need a nemesis!

[BuileBeag]

Trigger is now 26 behind BuileBeag

He's always behind me.  What a stalker!

[Leg End Reject]

I'm vying with liz for the spoon!

How did I completely forget Stan Lee, the marvellous legend

This is where I should remind myself there are no wrong answers in sheep, because I was going to put him down but then the question said film and TV and the internet suggested that although he wrote the comics he stepped back from directly writing screenplay for the films to oversee/produce... The internet was probably wrong anyway

I don’t believe he did any actual MCU writing, though I'm happy to be corrected there. Still, without him, the MCU wouldn't exist
