Sheep Preseason Week 2: Answers due THURSDAY at 12

[Gooner]

I lost because I know nothing about anxiety medication.

You've never heard of Xanax?

 

[WindyCityDeac]

You've never heard of Xanax?

or google?

 

[tigerswood]

A couple notes:

1) someone put benzos/Xanax as an answer. I asked them to pick one, and they didn’t get back to me. This always fucks with the grouping, don’t do this, it’s two different answers, I went with the first of the two.

2) PM me your teams and names before the end of next week

This was not me, but I read that as "benzos", but if you require a specific type of benzo to be named, then "xanax". I've definitely done that in the past (but spelled it out).

Similarly, how many "beer" vs. "corona" vs. "modelo" etc. did you group for "beer"? I didn't even think that an entire beverage category would be allowed/an answer, but hey that's Sheep!

So long as you don’t say lasagna is a pasta you’re fine

Because it's a completed recipe?

 

[TownieDeac]

And yeah that’s probably how they meant it, but not going to give the slash people the benefit of the doubt this season. Just one answer please.

Also almost grouped crabs and hermit crabs but think they’re different ideas

 

[deacdiggler]

You can tell when you have hermit crabs

Unless someone who voted crabs says otherwise, nobody is buying food crabs as a souvenir. They're all meaning hermit crabs in a cage, no?

 

[tigerswood]

Hmm, guess I'm just dumb. Of all beverages, I've definitely consumed beer the most on the beach, but it's far from a quintessential beach beverage. I won't be housing 14 Pina Coladas watching the Deacs on my patio this fall.

 

[WindyCityDeac]

is there an all time Board record for low score?

Idk! I’ve bought crabs from the shore home to eat after a beach trip. It’s not what I would call a souvenir but there you go.

Anyway it was the difference between 2 and 4 pts I think so not the biggest deal, but my toughest grouping choice this week.

Townie should look this up in all his free time

YO BIFF ! HOW MY ASS TASTE?

 

[DeacsATS]

Not a single answer on there is objectively horrible... except maybe numbers 1 and 12
well.... i guess that means 2 answers are objectively horrible

Yeah, 1 and 12 were bad.

You can get away with "wrong" answers (I had 5 this week), but you can't be pulling 1s.

Only question I feel like had a dumb answer was the electronics one... Sony? What fucking year is it, 1986? For chrissakes, my wife said Sony when I just asked her and that clinches it as a dumb answer.

Oh you sweet summer child.

Spring break memories, my friend.

 

[cookoutdeac]

yah I support townie being strict on not grouping stuff, just too much room for subjectivity to creep in and lead to some big unnecessary debates last year (e.g. hair vs facial hair being grouped, easier to just not group them and call it fair)

slash (/) answers either have to be graded as their own thing (e.g. just one point if no one else put that same slash answer) or I like townie just going w/ first thing you put there too

 

[DeacsATS]

There was a time a few weeks ago when I considered dumping DDD for WCD.

Oof, that would have been a bad one.

Thinking you may need a divorce attorney in the not too distant future
