RSQ Soixante Neuf

[Longines]

The reveal will take place on Tuesday 2 August @ 20:00. PM me your answers by midnight on Monday with RSQ as the subject.

The object is to get the lowest total score.

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.  If you score the only ACE (an ace being a correct answer which no-one else submits) in any round, you will receive MINUS 1 points for that round. So for newbies, you're trying to get unique, correct answers. Q6 is scored slightly differently.

You are not allowed to do research such as using Google to come up with answers, and you are not allowed to ask others for help with your answers.  Remember, you are only cheating yourself (and your illustrious peers).

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.

Nice questions.

Clarification:

Q3 Name a collective noun that begins with 's' as well as the relevant group.

The collective noun and the members of the group both have to begin with 's', or just the collective noun?

[TightEnd]

Q6 is brilliant

Just the sort of creativity we need

Like.

Very good questions

Q7 has an absolute ton of farce potential, should be a good reveal!

[kinboshi]

Q1 has LOADS of farce potential.  Could be interesting from the off

[Longines]

Looking forward to wielding the FAIL stick....

I assumed that this is the sort of there where there exists an up to date, official, irrefutable list of correct answers so there can't really be any objections?

I did a question about counties a while ago, and there isn't one, irrefutable, all-encompassing list of counties. There are different lists for different uses/occasions. As the QM hasn't specified which list he wants us to answer from, arguments and farce becomes a very strong possibility.

Very good questions. Lots of farce potential

[Longines]

Oh dear. RSQ + spelling pedant = Failarama.

[kinboshi]

Oh dear. RSQ + spelling pedant = Failarama.
