Congrats DaveNinja, and great game brainee !!

Mr. Flix

That sounds vaguely threatening.

Oh Abob. Our mutual animosity gets me going in the morning.

Thanks for a very fun game, brainee! Begrudging congrats, DaveNinja!

Abob Teff

Congrats DaveNinja!



And we were right Mr. Flix ... we both blew it. But, consolation ...



Thank you Brainee! I still came out with a win I had forgotten about!

M-I-C ... see you next Sheep game!

K-E-Y ... why the %#@! didnt I play a few more questions seriously? And how did Zendaya not get any matches given the uproar over her being cast in Spider-Man?

Obi-Wanma

I will take a huge correct unique that rockets me into the top 5 when I spent most of the game in the lower half of the pack.

Thanks for a fun game brainee, and congrats to DaveNinja!

BTW, I noticed that many of you stated that you thought there was a Little Mermaid movie already in the works.

Well technically there is, but it is based on the original Hans Christian Anderson Fairy tale, not the Disney film, so that's probably what you were thinking of.

Congrats to the winners. Great game Brainee. Disney is not my strength, but I always enjoy participating.

By the way, am I the only one who sees the "D" in the Disney logo as a weird symbol like a cross between a backwards "G" and a musical note? It was only within the last ten years I finally realized it's a "D". Ever since I was a kid, I always saw it as this mysterious symbol. Even today, I have to force myself to see how it is actually a D.

Decker

Darn it, Sneezy dropped me from 2nd to 4th.


Things might have gone very differently if I had gone with Mary Poppins {sd} instead of Who Framed Roger Rabbit {sd} (or if I had thought of Genie). Oh well


Congrats to Dave Ninja!

And seriously, I harped on some of the initial wordings, but really Brainee you did a GREAT job with your questions. They covered the entire spectrum of Disney while eschewing their other properties. You covered animated movies, live action films, theme parks, songs, shorts. It really was a terrific selection of questions. Congrats to you on being an outstanding Sheepmaster!



If I could make just one small, tiny suggestion : Can we please have an indefinite moratorium on the single letter columns under spoilers for answer reveals. They are really hard to read and bug the shit out of me. Thank you.

Decker

Yes. Yes you are. We all see a D. Even folks in Shanghai, Hong Kong and Tokyo see a "D"

Obi-Wanma

There are no single letter columns under answer reveals, at least not intentionally.

It's something that happens in the mobile version of the site when you put too many spoilers within spoilers.

It happens on my phone, but not on my PC.

Abob Teff

Sounds like Crocker doesn't want to admit he sees the "D".

Decker

Ah! I thought the Sheepmaster was just being an asshole.

Abob Teff

Ok, some serious observations/thoughts ...

How were "Miracle" and "Remember the Titans" not mentioned in the live action question? And yes brainee: "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" should be the correct answer. Completely forgot about it.

I actually really like Hercules and The Emperor's New Groove, and somewhat liked Tarzan. Atlantis has its moments (mainly Father Guido Sarducci -- which would have made a great question: Who is the most surprising voice actor Disney has used?).

Yes, Robin Hood is the shit. The only one of my favorites that I have never managed to buy in any format.

Has there been a Pixar game?

Decker

Yes. Last June. I was truly awful in it.

brainee

Ah ... I wasn't understanding Decker's comment. Thanks for the clarification. I think I realized long ago that I hated the mobile version of this site and never deal with it (on mobile devices, I still always use the full browser version).

Running these games I do like having fun with nested spoilers for the reveals. Personally I like the "flow" of opening up one answer after another without revealing any information about the answers you haven't gotten to yet (without even knowing how many more are coming). I always "test-view" my posts and have never seen any issues (using PC and Safari browser on iPad). Though if too many nested spoilers are breaking things for some people, I can try to remember to break it up a little bit. Of course, considering I generally run a game a year I'll most likely forget all about this next time and do things the exact same way

That may still be the case, but not for that reason

Mr. Flix

Dangit, Abob, I sheepmastered that game! It was my first one! You played it! (Though not very well.) I don't even know why I bother talking to you anymore.

Mr. Flix

You did score higher than Abob Teff.

Thanks to brainee for the game and congrats to DaveNinja for the win.

GhostLee

Congrats, DaveNinja, and thanks to brainee for a fun game.

Kal-El

Late to the after party here. Congrats DaveNinja and truly great game brainee. Bottom 3 and helped create a new terminology for future sheep games? Couldn't ask for a better loss. Fuckin' Aladdin and the genie killed me early.

And seriously people? The fucking Tiki Room over Star Tours? REALLY?

Ash Ketchum

I just watched you guys play, but I had a good time doing so. Good questions, clever responses and I loved the abundance of Disney illustrations, videos and GIFs. I enjoyed Brainee's highly cinematic manner of unfolding the reveals with a great deal of suspense. That was hard work and he did it quickly. Bravo!

Pinocchio can take it to the next level now:

Decker

Kal-El

I just went back and looked. Haha. I missed that last spoiler tag. Oops!

davidh777

Congrats to DaveNinja, and thanks to brainee for running the game!

I assumed I had no chance of contending when I submitted my answers, but I let a few good slams in the middle give me a bit of false hope.

I thought of Goofy for the shorts question mostly because of this. I don't recall Donald being in a lot of shorts but he makes sense as an answer just as a second banana to Mickey.

wishbone

Congrats DaveNinja on the win and thanks brainee for another fun game! Even with a few blunders I did much better with Disney answers than I expected I would.

DaveNinja

I finally won one! excellent! I've probably played a couple dozen sheep games over the years. Its nice to finally win.

I was worried early on when Mary Poppins was sheepiest for "live action" movie since I didnt pick it since I figured everyone would consider it a "hybrid" instead of "live action".
I had actually picked Doc at first for the final question and then changed it to Happy since he was the dwarf out of the 7 who i remembered last.

I'm headed to Disneyland in a few weeks. I take my wife and kids there at least once a year. We usually get APs every other year and throw in some other trips (like around xmas). So I'm extra stoked on this win. All that disney nerdness has come in useful!

Thank you for running the game!

Decker

Also Kal, I really don't do this to make fun - I was genuinely curious :
Could you please talk me through your thinking on {sd}-ing the Reverse Sheep the Disneyland Lands question? Most people Orange Crush Reverse Sheep answers where it's hard to think of more than a few answers (or only have a few choices of correct answers -- like Name a Beatles member) and then are unfortunate that nobody else answered that obvious selection. I get doing a Reverse {sd} for Tomorrowland here -- it's an obvious answer that folks who don't know jack about Disneyland would still know. Here there were lots of choices and many were much more obvious than New Orleans Square. Did you think everyone would be clever and answer that one as well, or were you confused about how to use {sd} in a Reverse Sheep question?
