Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,616 Posted March 11, 2022 Author Subscriber Share Posted March 11, 2022 @Lucas @Pyfish @Devil @nudge @Bluewolf @CaaC (John) @Stan @Spike @Dr. Gonzo @Aladdin Round 4 is not going to be easy but it was intentionally done this way. Some questions are of course very open-ended for a reason but I have the feeling we're going to maybe see some interesting answers here. The Rules or How does this work? For people who haven't played before the game is very simple, there will be 10 questions asked per round and they may have multiple answers. The goal is to try and answer like the rest of the players. An example is, What is a common accompaniment with eggs for breakfast? And if you and 5 other people answer "beans" then you get 6 points. If your answer doesn't match anyone else's then you get one point. The idea is to gain as many points and get to the top of the list to be the Sheepiest of the lot. If there is ambiguity in the question, as is sometimes the case, I will put specific instructions next to the question as I know some of these can be close in wording and I try my best to group them together. Sheep - Season 9 - Big Baa Tech - Round 4 - Questions - Close Attention Name a city other than San Francisco where a lot of tech in the internet space comes from? Garmin is famous for making watches that track movement and activities, these use a technology called GPS. What does the "P" in GPS stand for? How many colours does the Google logo have? Hawk-eye is a technology provider used in a lot of sports across the globe. Name a sport other that Cricket, Football and Rugby which also uses this technology. Name an iPod competitor from another famous tech company. If the Sheep had to meet a famous fictional AI, which one of these would it be? HAL 9000 (2001) | Skynet (Terminator) | TARS (Interstellar) Name the country which has a stretch of road that charges EVs while they drive on it. How many lines does the IBM logo have in it? I would ask that you don't look and try to answer this one. Its rooted in tech. Name a product that Adobe makes which is very popular. Name a crypto currency which is NOT Bitcoin. Notes/Rules For 1st timers, the rules of the game are simple. You want your answers to these questions to match with one other player or more than one other players. E.g. If your answer is "Wookie" and five other people answer the same then you get 6 points for that question. If you do not match with anyone else you're only going to get 1 point. The winner is the person who has the most points after 5 rounds. Please DM me all your answers and don't post them in here. Please feel free to ask questions for clarification purposes and I'll try and answer them as best as I can. Please do not try and discuss answers to questions until the round is over. I will accept spelling mistakes and words that follow a certain theme. If the answers have to be unique I will call them out specifically with the questions There is no such thing as a WRONG ANSWER. Keep in mind that you can type anything you want and if someone else provides the same answer we can all have a laugh while you'll walk away with 2 or more points. You all have till Friday (March 18th) to get your answers to me. If they all come in sooner I'll have the results out faster as well and we can move to the next round. Good luck and feel free to ask any questions you may have just don't post answers in the thread haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
