| The Illustrious Realms of Samasbhi | Most people would also have more civil rights and political freedom than what NS gives me for my planned society.

 The Sphurarchy of Marinas Island | 12) Name a year in which a country in Africa became independent from the United Kingdom. DROP - 0 1956 - Singleton! - 1 (Sudan) 1952 - Singleton! - 1 (you can make a case for Egypt, which gained the de facto independence it already had de jure in this year) 1922 - Singleton! - 1 (Egypt, de jure, though British occupation continued for 30 more years.) 1965 - Singleton! - 1 (Gambia and de facto independence of what was then Southern Rhodesia, though not de jure) 1968 - Singleton! - 1 (Eswatini and Mauritius) 1961 - Singleton! - 1 (Parts of Cameroon and Nigeria, most of Tanzania, Sierra Leone) 1960 - Singleton! - 1 (Nigeria and part of Somalia) 1964 - Co-SHEEP - 2 (Malawi and Zambia) 1966 - Co-SHEEP - 2 (Lesotho and Botswana) 1976 - Co-SHEEP - 2 (Seychelles) 1963 - Co-SHEEP - 2 (Kenya and Zanzibar) SHEEP - 2 WRONG: !duck - 4 (not a number) 1970 - 4 (No country in Africa gained independence in this year, but Biafra lost it.) 1975 - 4 (While many countries gained independence in this year, in all cases it was from France or Portugal, not the UK. Should've gone with a different decade.) 1953 - 4 (Egypt changed government type in this year, but was already independent.) 2021 - 4 (Question is in past tense and this hasn't happened yet.) 1972 - 4 (No country in Africa at all.) 1999 - 4 (Some territory was transferred to a country previously ruled by the UK but no independence occurred.) 1948 - 4 (No country in Africa at all.) 1945 - 4 (No country in Africa at all.) Eleven correct answers, nine wrong answers, six DROPs, four co-SHEEPs, and one SHEEP. This is definitely too hard of a question. Unused answers include 1910, 1931 (both dates for South Africa due to the UK doing separate de facto and de jure independence), 1951 (Libya, via a UN trusteeship), 1957 (Ghana), 1962 (Uganda), and 1980 (legal recognition of Zimbabwe). With so few points, this shouldn't change much, but it was a very close race for first... Final Standings: 1st: CookiEvee (37) Congratulations to the most different thinker of all, our champion CookiEvee! Allen fails to live up to his name change by one point, and Bobogoobo just barely slipped out of first there. Ender turned in a usual strong performance, and would you believe this is Bobki's first Think game? At the other end, Conflux was by far the worst performer. All right, weird name people, you have prevented me making much of my flavor commentary, so it's time to reveal who you are. Meanwhile, since I am stupid and forgot to include the team question, we'll just count SHEEPs. Least SHEEPy Player: Conflux - 0 This doesn't count the special option as the real thing, as a note. Conflux manages to be the least SHEEPy by deliberately answering everything wrong. Rose, on the other hand, got zero by more honest measures. Nobody turned in more than five SHEEPs, and unlike in Think Same, there isn't quite as clear of a correlation here. Farquharland apparently accidentally answered like this was Think Same, and it is evident here- you should play again next month, when it likely will be Think Same. I'm not going to be running the game, though- our newest member of imperial staff, Dimitri, will be handling the October game and I'm just going to advise. See you next time! - Congratulations to Welcome to Think Different Numbers Edition! This will be five concurrent games, all of which are played with one set of answers. They will be: 1. Lowest scoring player So, how does one play Think Different? At the bottom of this post will be a link to a Google form, which you will fill out according to an hono(u)r system. The goal is to answer correctly, but to give the answer that the least number of other players give. You will receive a number of points equal to the number of people who answered the same as you for each question- provided the answer is correct. The most popular answer is called the SHEEP. Now, suppose you give an incorrect answer. You then receive points equivalent to double the number of people who answered the SHEEP. So, let's say six people are asked to name something that normally lives in the ocean. Three people say "Shark"; that is the SHEEP answer and they receive 3 points each. One person each respond with "kelp" and "squid" and receive one point each. One person responds with "Werewolf" and receives 6 points for giving a wrong answer. Each question works the same way. In lieu of teams this time, I'm giving everyone two special features that they have the option to use, or not use, at their discretion. Each option can be used only once and if you use either more than once, I will count all of them as wrong. These options are SHEEP and DROP. SHEEP will give you as many points as whatever the SHEEP answer for that question was, but not be counted as part of the total players who got the SHEEP. In short, this is only a good idea if you really think you're going to be wrong. DROP will give you zero points. Do not look up answers or coordinate your answers with others. Think Different is intended to be harder than Think Same, and in this case Google will not usually help you anyway. The honor pledge: By playing Think Different, you agree to not disclose your answers to any player save the organizer (Marinas Island) between the posting of this form and the closing of responses. You agree to bring any issues to the attention of the organizer as soon as you find them and not to challenge the outcome if you do not do so. You agree to only submit one set of answers, even if you are drunk. If you wish to dispute the ruling of an answer as correct/incorrect, you agree to bring it up with the organizer via forum PM, NS telegram, or Discord DM. If you want clarification on any question or to modify an existing answer, you agree to bring it to the attention of the organizer via forum PM, NS telegram, or Discord DM. The game will begin in 7 days. The game can be found here: Good luck~ There will be a prize to the winner. Past winners are still eligible for prizes even if they have not redeemed theirs.
