Most hotels have an exclusive deal with one or the other, which ones they are will be an utter guess though.

Its the proof tho, eg a list of every single hotel in LV which clearly shows who sells pepsi solely and who sells coca cola, if that cannot be provided how can it be a valid question.

clarification

TWO ice hockey questions

do you think that most of your audience can answer two ice hockey questions?

I don't. Only one pass. Ice Hockey overkill threatens quiz IMO

That was the first point I made

he doesn't have to disprove them, he can just fail them

I have a request

can we please change the scoring of fails back to how it used to be?

this sheep score +10 means that a single fail rules you out of winning, it's far too big

[ ] Quiz will work

Add the number of people who know nothing about Ice Hockey, with the number that won't have a clue about the Pepsi farce, and multiply it by the beating you get for a fail, and you have a faaaaaaarce! wp

As I would be guessing too many of this weeks answers I decided not to enter... so I had a look about to see if it was possible to prove answers for question 14, surprisingly, there is a list that shows the hotels choice of brand!

Farcetastic warning though, the list doesn't cover all Vegas hotels...

...

ps are you serious for Q14 - is this supposed to be common knowledge?

+1

Can you prove the answer one way or another?

For example, I know of one hotel in Vegas which I don't think served coke - but if you fail it, is it even going to be possible to prove it one way or another?

Thank you

I suspected this would be the case

So even if you have been to Vegas, and had pepsi/coke at any of the hotels - this information isn't necessarily going to help.

What the question is actually asking for is a hotel which just happens to be on the list the QM is using.

I quite liked this one. I think i've got a couple of sheep in but think there is only one possible fail in there and that's the NHL hockey team.

Having a monkey around that follows american sport finally came in useful thumbs up

Except that now your answer will be a fail because:

new questions, at least take out Cluedo (repeat), Icehockey (ghey sport, have you seen the handbag fights?), and the coke one (what you drink in Vegas, stays in Vegas). At least to save the numbers. Otherwise, brilliant quiz.

Good point

questions are fine imo.  a couple of repeats from earlier quizzes, but that makes it kind of interesting to see how people adapt if they remember what the sheep answers were before.  I'm also quietly confident on the pepsi one, because I know a few of the chains have exclusivity deals.  How it will work in practice with some of the smaller independents though is a different matter.
