Title: Sporting Reverse Sheep Quiz Post by: scotty2hatty on June 30, 2014, 07:48:19 PM I assume everyone will be familiar with a Reverse Sheep Quiz, which have ran for a while on blonde over in 'The Lounge' but I'll outline the rules/details below anyway.
PM me your answers. Your score for each question is the number of people who give the same answer. The answer most commonly given is the Sheep, if you give an incorrect answer your score for that question is the Sheep score, plus 5. You must pass on one question. Your score for that question is zero. Please list each answer on an individual line in your PM, if possible. No researching answers, including Googling or asking people for help. The deadline for answers is 4pm on Sunday the 6th of July, with the reveal the same evening from 6pm. Questions 1. Give the name of a player who took part in any game at the Football World Cup for England? 2. Sportelogy.com have produced a list of the ten most popular sports in the World based on sports that are "most watched", name one of the sports? 3. Name a male tennis player in the top 15 in the World rankings? 4. Name a track and field athletic event that took place at the 2012 Olympics? Note: Please do not add men's or women's to your answer. 5. Name one of the 25 football players with the highest market value, according to transfermarkt.co.uk? 6. Name a currently active British horse racing track? 7. Name a sportsperson in the top 20 on Forbes.com's list of the World's highest paid athletes between the dates of June 1st 2013 and June 1st 2014? 8. Give the name of a golf Major winner from 2000-2014 inclusive? 9. Give the name of a bookmaker listed on Oddschecker.com under the 'World Cup Outright' market? 10. Give the full name of a NBA team?

Please remember to pass on a question - it's a standard RSQ rule but I think we may have got away without it in this case. I've been messaging those who forgot but if I miss someone then, since I didn't put a rule in the OP about it, I'll use a random number generator to pick the question the person is passing on. Title: Re: Sporting Reverse Sheep Quiz Post by: sweet potata! on July 03, 2014, 06:03:57 PM I don't play the RSQ so not sure what the point of passing a Q was?
