So I don't post on here very often (despite browsing most days!) but this season I've been taking part in a pretty fun game on the poker forum for the NFL season and figured it might be quite fun to bring it to the football forum. It's called a reverse sheep (or PEEHS) and I'm sure some of you know the rules but lots of you won't so I'll explain quickly below:
- there are 19 questions each relating to one week of the second half of the football season. Each question must be answered before the second half of the season begins and no answers can be changed once the deadline has passed.
- the idea is to guess the most unique correct answer and you will be scored on the amount of people who also guessed the same correct answer as you. For example, if the question is "by gameweek 27 who will have scored a direct free-kick?" and 4 of you correctly put Rooney as your answer then you all score 4 points.
- the fewer points you score, the better!
- Incorrect answers will score the SHEEP answer (the most popular correct answer) plus the total number of correct answers guessed by the participants. To carry the example forward, if 4 people guessed Rooney correctly, 7 guessed Hazard, and 3 other unique correct answers were chosen by participants then everyone who guessed an incorrect answer would score 12 (SHEEP score 7 plus total of 5 correct answers).
- If nobody guesses a correct answer then you will all receive a score of however many participants are in the game.
- Aces are the best possible score, when you are the only person to correctly guess that answer. As a result, the lowest score possible is 19 throughout the game.
- I will reveal the answers and the scores after all games of that particular gameweek have been concluded.
It's quite simple on your part. All you do is answer the 19 questions below and respond VIA PM. We've found that it makes it a lot more fun if you can't remember what you've submitted for answers plus if you can all see each others answers then whoever answers latest has a huge advantage by being able to pick answers that haven't been submitted so responses have to be kept secret. I'd quite like to get as many people as possible playing in this game (the more people then the higher the scores and the more fun the reveal will be each week!) so I've already posted this on another forum and had a decent response so far but the more the merrier! Oh and I will send someone my answers before it all starts so they can verify I'm not cheating
Please note all questions are for the time period starting 1st Jan 2015 up until the last day of that gameweek, which I have taken from the official fantasy football website, so if someone gets a red card in December it doesn't count towards the gameweek 28 question.
With that said, here are the questions! The order goes Gameweek - Last day of that gameweek - Question
20. 09-Jan-15 Who will score in gameweek 20?
21. 16-Jan-15 Who will have an assist by the end of gameweek 21?
22. 30-Jan-15 Which goalkeeper will have a clean sheet?
23. 06-Feb-15 Which defender will have scored? (Using fantasy football classifications, eg Antonio Valencia is classified as a midfielder, not a defender despite playing RWB)
24. 09-Feb-15 Who will have got a transfer away from the Premiership in Jan?
25. 20-Feb-15 Which team will have won away from home?
26. 27-Feb-15 Who will have been yellow carded in more than one game?
27. 06-Mar-15 Who will have scored directly from a free kick?
28. 13-Mar-15 Who will have received a red card?
29. 20-Mar-15 Who will have been substituted at least three times?
30. 27-Mar-15 Who will have scored at least 2 in a game?
31. 03-Apr-15 Who will have at least 3 assists?
32. 10-Apr-15 Which team will have lost live on TV (UK live channels Sky, BT) in the Premiership?
33. 17-Apr-15 Which goalkeeper will have made 6 or more saves in a game?
34. 24-Apr-15 Who will have made it into the http://www.fantasy.premierleague.com dream team more than once?
35. 01-May-15 Which team will be in the bottom five of the league?
36. 08-May-15 Who will have missed a penalty?
37. 15-May-15 Who will have scored an own goal?
38. 22-May-15 Who will have scored more than 8 Prem goals since Jan 1st 2015?
I'll be taking answers right up until New Years Eve, so as long as the PM is sent with a 2014 date then you're in the game! But I'd appreciate any responses in here saying whether you're interested so I know whether to go to other boards and post this there.
Good luck!!
