This is a short game where you try to out-think other forum posters.

Previous rounds have been hosted by @Mano, @Minicoop69, and @jfuchs91. The rules will remain the same for this iteration.

UConn Reverse Sheep Trivia - Round 4

Rules:
  • There are two types of questions: Sheep questions (1-13) and Reverse Sheep questions (14-25).
  • For Sheep questions (1-13), you want to answer what you think will be given most often by other people. For example, if the question is "Name a Duke player" a good answer might be Christian Laettner and a bad answer would likely be Nick Horvath.
  • For Reverse Sheep questions (14-25), you want to give the answer that you think will be given least often by other people. For example, if the question is "Name a basketball conference in the NCAA", a terrible answer would probably be the ACC. A good answer would probably be the Horizon League.
  • In Sheep questions, you get one negative point for every person that gives the same answer as you, including yourself. For example, if you and six other people said Laettner, all seven of you would get -7 points. No points are given if you are the only person to say an answer.
  • In Reverse Sheep questions, you get one positive point for every person that gives the same answer as you, including yourself. If you and ten other people said the ACC, you would get 11 points.
  • Incorrect answers in Reverse Sheep get the number of points for the answer with the most votes + 1, making it worse than giving the worst correct answer. Incorrect answers for Sheep questions will be worth 0.
  • The lowest total score wins. In the above two examples, your current score would be 11 – 7 = 5.
  • No using Google, Wikipedia, etc. if you don't have to. Try to remain moral in this (i.e. don't use them to cheat).
  • Fill out the Google Form to submit your answers. Do not post them in this thread or tell anyone else.
  • Answers are due by Monday, September 12th at 11:59PM EDT. Answers will be revealed over the following day(s).

I made the first question with the username required so nobody can accidentally skip it now. But whoever was the first person to submit the response already, just let me know so I can identify your answers since you didn't put your username

Glad people are enjoying it so far. Definitely a few questions that I'd probably change in hindsight but nothing I can do now

Just a reminder that tonight is the last night to get entries in. Although I probably won't get around to the first question until tomorrow morning so you'll have some extra time

yeah thanks Navery. I have to imagine this is a pretty huge timesuck.
So far it hasn't been terrible, but I think that'll change tomorrow when I have to start tallying up answers and calculating everyone's scores
