WRRU's RSQ

[willrobrobu]

The reveal will take place in about a week, either side of world cup final, so will make deadline a week today friday 11th july at midnight . i've never done one of these before so comments on any of the questions being terrible will be listened to...i tried to include a mixture of luck and skill. one or two slightly tougher q's but you can always pass one of them. i hope everyone can name at least one guillermo del toro film!

Ruleses

Your score is the number of people who give the same correct answer. The answer most commonly given is called the sheep, with the corresponding sheep score.

You are not allowed to do research such as using Google to come up with answers except for question 10, and you are not allowed to ask others for help with your answers.

If you give an incorrect answer, you will receive the sheep score + 5 points

You MUST pass on one, and only one, question and you will receive a score of 0 for that question.

Question 5 is an interesting spin

[Redsgirl]

Are you on drugs?

[scotty2hatty]

And I see you liked that spin so much you threw question 10 in too.

In general, it looks ok, in comparison.

lol

good effort, well done

on Q5 and Q10 we are meant to choose an order of idiocy and attractiveness that no one else chooses then?

by doing so we'd then get the least points


so really you might as well just give us 4 numbers and ask us to put them in an order 1,2,3,4 or whatever

it doesn't matter what we think, which is what i think you would like to hear....

the subject you choose is irrelevant, isn't it?

this is why these type of questions aren't used in an RSQ

It was too early for me to type this, but it's what I meant

Question 9.

Would it be better to name a winning hand from the Main event? Rather than a pair??

[TightEnd]

could you also name the source for Q8 please? (standard to do so)

this often gives an entrant a flavour of the type of answer that might be required

for example...if your source is the Sunday sport, fine but is rather different than if you say the source is the Economist. The milieu is important


(yes, i put far too much thought into these things)

agreed q5 and 10 are largely random although there will be a degree of levelling one another. did say at the start mix of luck and skill. can change these or one of them at least if there are objections?

[willrobrobu]

Are you on drugs?

yes actually

source is BARB and collated elsewhere. didnt want to say exact source as felt it would give googlers an unfair advantage

i don't think you should change any questions. we can enter, or not, play the hand we are dealt.

just giving some feedback as to the difficulties the questions pose within an RSQ

i always fancied Widdicombe anyway, now i have the perfect vehicle to admit it and get away with it.

i looked at some reverse sheep quizzes on other forums and they were almost all random like, 'pick a colour of the rainbow' :p but yeah in hindsight i'd take those out for next time.  there are enough combos that there should be a lot of aces anyway and it shouldnt affect things too much unless someone gets v unlucky. to add a twist for 5+ 10 if anyone gets theirs in the same order as my personal picks they get MINUS 1pt

Question 9.

Would it be better to name a winning hand from the Main event? Rather than a pair??

why?

Because theres more of them?

Ill still enter anyway
