Sheep: the RESHEEPENING (Round 9: Pokemon Reverse Sheep QUESTIONS CLOSED)

hello

I tried playing along to that last round and got 47, assuming I got added points for being in the categories but no one else did, so I still lost by a landslide despite having a theoretical advantage of 13 points.

Needless to say, I AM IN AND I AM(WILL) WIN

Of course I'm in.

hi yes sure

Okay, got to the grind early on this one, so gonna go ahead and post the questions. This is NOT a call to end signups; You sign up implicitly by PMing me these answers.

I'm gonna call the knockoff date to be ABOUT AROUND TUESDAY MARCH 8TH 11:59 PM (U.S. CENTRAL TIME). Please get your answers PM'd to me before then so I can start making correct counts.

Your Round 5 Questions are in the spoiler, but first a quick rules tip. If I specify something isn't allowed to be said, through means such as "Other than ~" or otherwise exclusionary phrasing, if you say those answers anyway its an automatic 0 points, which is bad because the least you're supposed to get on any question is 1! Make sure to read each question carefully.

SpoilerShow

1: Let's cut to the chase. What's the greatest video game of all time?
2: What's the best controller of all time?
3: Other than inside their home, where might you find someone playing a video game?
4: If you were a Team Fortress 2 class, who would you be?
5: (Borrowing from last round) What is the most important part of a video game, according to a critic?
6: With which game did the Sonic series go so wrong?
7: Name a video game where the protagonist is black.
8: How many games are in your Backlog right now?
9: Can you name a song from the Jet Set Radio series?
10: Name a game/series that would cause a player to say "Curse you, RNG!" (RNG = Random Number Generator)
11: Among the Undertale boss fights that are NOT EXCLUSIVE TO THE GENOCIDE RUN, which fight had the best music? (Gonna be kind and make sure this one is covered. Megalovania is a song in a fight exclusive to the Genocide Run, I.E. don't say that one)
12: Which generation of Pokemon has the best Pokemon?
13: What video game genre has the least variety?
14: What is the most iconic part of the character Mario?
15: Now let's chase to the cut. What is the worst video game of all time?

Remember, do not discuss the questions in this thread or post answers in this thread while the round is in session (I.E. From now until I call the signups closed). All answers need to be PM'd to me using the following format

1:
2:
3:

5:

Please do not include the questions in your PM, its easier for me to make the count when its just the answers. And if you're going to include funny/serious asides or comments about your answer, please include them at the bottom of the PM, and not within the numbered list seen here. That also makes it easier for me.

Thank you for playing, and Happy Sheeping!

yezzz

wow man you posted questions before i even got a chance to type "yezzzz i'm in"

By my count I got 17 Sheep so far.

I'm gonna need a sheep dog at this rate.

Me stealing the win.

So we gots 21 Sheeple right now. A reminder that tomorrow is the last day for anyone wanting to play to signup. We'll have the reveal within one or two days of that, depends on when I have the most time.

Last call for Sheeples, you gots about two hours till my midnight, which is when I'm gonna start making official counts. If you want in the pen, nows the time, nows the moment, seize it.

EDIT: THE POLLS ARE CLOSED

REVEAL HOUR IS CLOSE AT HAND!

I'm going to begin soon, probably gonna notch it right at the top of the hour, but a few notes:

In an effort to prevent the clutter that 24(!) Sheeple bring to each update, I'm going to be posting current scores only at certain intervals (After 5, 10, 14, and 15(the final question)). Those posts will only have scores in them, and will house both the condensed current scores as well as a second, longer bunch that will show each rounds scores (So that you can check my math on your total. TRANSPARENCY WOO).

And that's it actually. One note can be a few notes if you try hard enough.

GET HYPE PLEASE IT WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED IF YOU GOT HYPE YOU CAN CHECK YOUR NOT-HYPE AT THE DOOR WE PROMISE IT WILL BE THERE WHEN YOU LEAVE

EDIT: Oh yeah my other note!

Okay so Shredded won the last round with 66 points, which is the highest point total among the first two rounds of Regular Sheep. In this round, the LOWEST point total is 59. Just a heads up on how fast and furious the point values got.

#RaceFor59

EDIT: Actually hold on give me 10 more minutes

Alright lets get the ball rolling:

QUESTION 1: Let's cut to the chase. What's the greatest video game of all time?

SpoilerShow

Undertale (15): Solaris, Ixcaliber, Agentblue, Shredded, SleepingOrange, Crowstone, Coldblooded, Akumu, Robust Laser, Whimbrel, Palamedes, Loather, Kieros, Granolaman, Mirdini

Super Mario Bros (2): Reecer6, Reyweld

GREAT MINDS THINK ON THEIR OWN TERMS:
Advance Wars Dual Strike: Dragonfogel
Final Fantasy Tactics: g0m
Chrono Trigger: ICan'tGiveCredit
Minecraft: a52

Eh, it's more like a walking simulator, really. Not really a video game.

:P

two-way tie for 19th place isn't bad for the first question. well, it is. but it could be worse.

First question off the bat took a lot of knees out, but don't forget the GRANOLAMAN MANEUVER. There may be a comeback in you yet.

Ruling Note: Cannot combine Mouse, Keyboard, and Mouse & Keyboard.

Question 2: What's the best controller of all time?

SpoilerShow

Gamecube (7): Crowstone, Reecer6, g0m, Schazer, Gatr, Palamedes, Loather
Xbox 360 (5): Solaris, Ixcaliber, Akumu, Robust Laser, Ican'tGiveCredit

Keyboard: AgentBlue
PS3: SleepingOrange
X-Box: a52
PS2: Whimbrel

SNES Controller: Dragonfogel
Wii Remote: Reyweld
NES: Kieros

I will be creating my own points tally for "correctness points".

g0m: 2
those other people who went gamecube controller: 1
everyone else: zilch

Well that's it I'm done

Ruling Note: As close as it is, I cannot combine "Someone else's house" with "Friend's house". General-to-Specific rules can be finnicky, but I mean you could be at a party at some house belonging to a person you do not even know, playing video games.

Question 3: Other than inside their home, where might you find someone playing a video game?

SpoilerShow

Arcade(9): a52, Akumu, Whimbrel, Reecer6, Pinary, Dragonfogel, Loather, Kieros, Mirdini
Friend's House(4): Solaris, Coldblooded, Schazer, Reyweld

nooooooo

Question 5: What is the most important part of a video game, according to a critic?

SpoilerShow

Graphics (10): Solaris, Crowstone, Robust Laser, Whimbrel, Pinary, Gatr, Reyweld, ICan'tGiveCredit, Granolaman, Mirdini
Gameplay(7): Ixcaliber, Shredded, a52, Coldblooded, Dragonfogel, g0m, Palamedes
Plot(5): AgentBlue, SleepingOrange, Reecer6, Schazer, Kieros

The Critic's Critic:
Integration of themes of mechanics: Akumu
$$$$$$$$: Loather

Next post will be a score roundup, but also it might be a few minutes.

in a perfect world, akumu is right.
in our world, loather is right.
neither got close to winning.
our, the general population's, perception of reality is thus flawed.
perhaps that could be fixed with better graphics.
wAIT MAYBE THAT MEANS THAT'S THE RIGHT ANSWER ANYWAYS

Undertale? Fuck off.
And I MEANT Xbox 360! Rrrgh! That one's my fault, but it's still so irritating.

For most of these I put actual answers, not sheep answers, so I don't expect to win this one.

Oh no I was doing so well up until then
