Everyone's awful answers are shaping up nicely. Players so far are:
AaronHernandez

brainee
DaveNinja
hasslein
Mr. Flix
mwbmis
tommyp007
Shannon Nutt
Super X
TheAllPurposeNothing
Tom Opus
wishbone


Answers won't be coming until Monday at the earliest, so there is still lots of time for anyone else wanting to play to submit their worst answers.

Pretty easy. Everything about Saturday Night Live is well documented, so it is simple to look up if someone's answer is based on an SNL skit or not.

Pretty sure he meant how would you prove the "worst movie" part. Though I have a feeling you knew that.

The problem with asking for a "worst" (or "best") example on a Reverse question is that some Sheep will name good examples in an effort to be unique, which pretty much nullifies the point of the question. It basically just turns into, "Name a Saturday Night Live movie."

I found this out while running the Pixar game. I asked for the worst Pixar movie as a Reverse question, and some players cried foul when answers like "Toy Story 2" and "The Incredibles" were submitted.

True, "worst" in this case is subjective, not objective. What is worst for one person could be best for another.

Yes, the judgment aspect of the question is thrown out, and it becomes just a "name a movie" question. It's the Sheepmaster's choice, but the practice seems to be trending up.

Actually, I disagree. Players disregard personal opinion entirely and just try to come up with a unique answer. I seriously doubt anyone in the world thinks Toy Story 2 is Pixar's worst movie, but that answer was submitted in an effort to be unique.

Exactly.

I think players and sheepmaster understand that these questions are just "name a movie". Personally, I think wording reverse questions like that is silly (with subjectivity in the question). All these questions could be worded in a way that still fits the theme. For example, "Land Shark 3: The Revenge was one of the worst movies ever. Name another movie based on a SNL skit".
Spoiler:
BTW, Land Shark 3 is not a valid answer

I remember one Sheepmaster saying it was intentional in order to mess with players' minds. I have enough trouble coming up with my answers without any additional confusion being thrown in.

I think the slam twist is proof that Crocker doesn't care one bit about the well-being of sheep minds.

I'm in, most of the questions an answer came to mind right away, but they weren't very good choices. The last question I could literally only think of one, and I think I ot the sequel number wrong. Hopefully I don't "Wily Peralta" this game.

My answer to the last question is unfortunate.
