Howdy!
Awk some may know the game and the rules by now but always worth posting them again just in case! Even if it is just copying and pasting
The aim of the game? Try to follow the masses and give the most popular answer! The more people who give the same answer as you... The more points you get! So don't overthink it!
Just say you're "in" and send your answers in PRIVATE!.. That's an important part to remember!
There'll be THREE rounds of ten questions
If you're asked to name a colour, for example, and five people say 'blue' and one says 'red' then those who said 'blue' would get FIVE POINTS and the sole person who said 'red' would get ZERO; you only score points if you follow the masses!
We'll post the leaderboard and a new set of questions as the day goes on! If you wish to join in during rounds two or three that's no problem, just send on all your answers to every round at that time and we will update previous scores when tallying up the latest round!
Good luck! |

"Am I the only one who said that balls ache? "
We can confirm that you were!
However, that one was spread about between a few answers. The non-homeowners who leave their phones behind when they venture out to Supermacs are the ones that really snookered themselves! |

Christian Bale came to mind first as he's mentioned in one of the Cards Against Humanity... thought to myself surely he can't be the most popular answer...
As a person who's been obsessed with the pyramids and Egypt I'm ashamed that the most obvious answer never even came to mind
South Africa did come to mind first... I genuinely don't know what made me choose differently
Stopped eating bread years ago, so don't even have a toaster. Would have never even thought of picking toast as genuinely haven't even had toast in many years.
Closest thing to Harry Potter that my mind went to was Dumbledore. If I'm honest I just wanted to pick the wizard of OZ.
"Calm your tits" is definitely something I use more often than "what's the craic"
How could anyone not say "Winnie the pooh" after a bear question I do not know!
Love me tender is one of my favorite, go to Karaoke songs, it was the first thought in my mind, I was just like "nah, people can't possibly prefer that over blue suede shoes". Facepalm.
I firmly stand by my answer that "How not to be a dick" should most definitely be the one book that every single person should read. Lord of the Rings can be second.
Narnia! Narnia! Naaaaaarnia!!!
Stupid me forgot about Narniaaaaa!
To reflect on my performance- I should listen to my gut more - even when it told me that blue was one of the colours of the Italian flag until I went to double check.
OP thank you for a great game!

"Am I the only one who said that balls ache?
Surprised that Mr didn't say that
Did he say lotr, lotr and the shire for book, film and place? If he didn’t, he’s dead to me. "
I said LOTR, LOTR and Narnia |

Questions and answers like those above are interesting because you're trying to think what the 'obvious' one is, what other people will say!
However, as tricky as the final round may have been, the more independent and personal questions and answers can be the most interesting!
Trying to think what's the one book or film that you feel is above anything else, what do you always make sure to bring with you when you leave the house etc and then finding out others are the same!
Fascinating to us at least! |

"Apologies for the difficulty, we try to make all or as many of the thirty questions different to the last!
Although, the five folk who said 'blue' as a colour of the Italian flag have no excuse! "
Oops that was me I thought the flag was blue n white .. that shows I didn't Google |

Huge thanks to the Zephyrs even if I had to complete one round while at a meeting with the phone under the table. Always enjoy the sheep game to see how others think though always hard picking one book or one film and I did make a schoolboy error on one question, yes I was one of the five getting confused with flags and rugby tops |

Can't believe I missed it. Was convinced this morning I'd have time, but it turned into a shit show of a day.
Have to try to defend my crown another day.
Fair play guys for another fun quiz. |
