Another Pointless/Sheep Game

In honour of today's glorious news, I thought I'd resurrect an old forum favourite.

In Pointless, your aim is to pick an answer to the questions that you think the least people will pick. You want as few points as possible.

In Sheep, your aim is to pick an answer that you think the most people will pick. For every person who picks the same answer as you, you'll gain a point.

In Pointless, points are bad. In sheep, points are good.

You'll provide two answers (first being pointless and second being sheep) for each question. You want less points in pointless, and more in sheep.

-----------

Questions

1. Name a country in Africa.
2. Name one of the seven deadly sins.
3. Name a Batman villain.
4. Name a city that has hosted the Modern Summer Olympics but was not the nation's capital.
5. Name a four legged animal.
6. Name a fruit.
7. Name an adjective that could be used to describe Tony Abbott.
8. Name a sexual position.
9. Name the most beautiful woman in the world.
10. Name an Australian city or town with a population of 30,000 or more.
11. Name a defunct NRL/ARL/NSWRL club.
12. Name the best player in NRL (must have played NRL) history.
13. Name something your Mum gives you at night.
14. Name a gift you might give to somebody at a housewarming.
15. Name a kind of torture.
16. Name something red.
17. Name a historic (deceased) world leader who you'd like to have over for dinner.
18. Name a five word or less phrase BF might say.
19. Name a place you would like to be kissed.
20. Name a life threatening illness.

-----

PM your answers to me, remembering the first answer is your pointless answer and the second is your sheep answer.

Sent. Preferred the ones with a limited answer, like the sins and NRL clubs. The open ended ones i just froze up.

Six submissions in so far.

SGLC clearly doesn't know that the NRL started in 1998, and I want to invite GKD to my next housewarming.

I just gone done tallying up the points and we've got a different winner for each game, which is good.

How would you like results released? Round by round? Or just the scores and a summary?

Depends how slow the round by round is :lol:
