WRONG:

!xoricat - 14 (Not a number)
Conflux

The numbers I've found for normal litter size top out at 10 or 12 generally, which I think is a bit of a stretch but nobody went into double digits anyway. Nobody picked 1 or 2, either, despite that these are decently common. The only wrong answer was Conflux, who gets another 14 points for an answer which was more topical than the last one. L0NG80W3 supplies the only singleton. I'm guessing we won't see much movement this time.

Standings as of Round 6:

1st: Champion Allen (18)
2nd (+2): L0NG80W3 (21)
3rd (-2): The Cosmic Mainframe (23)
4th: Bobogoobo (24)
5th (-1): CookiEvee (25)
5th (-1): Chi (25)
7th (-4): Bobki (26)
7th (-3): Ender (26)
7th (+2): Norwany (26)
10th: Rossiyaana (27)
11th: Sama (29)
12th (-1): Bill and Ted's Bogus Answers (30)
13th (-2): Sitethief of Vylixan (32)
13th (+1): Glealian (32)
13th (+1): Rose (32)
13th (+6): Tiberius (32)
17th (-3): Kathol (33)
18th (-1): looneylew (34)
18th: Silk spider (34)
20th: MetroPoz (35)
21st: Nublark (38)
21st (+2): Max Barry (38)
23rd (-2): Qazzian (39)
24th (-1): Farquharland (40)
25th: saxasm (42)
25th (+1): WubWub (42)
27th: Primeval Revenant (45)
28th: DCI Wesley (46)
29th: Pergalicious Mister Five (48)
30th: what do you want it to be (50)
31st: Conflux (90)

The Cosmic Mainframe's time on top was short-lived. Allen is now three points up on Longbowe, who I'm not used to seeing at the top of the rankings. We've had the rare occurrence of greatest gain exceeding greatest loss, with Tiberius' +6 outpacing Bobki's -4. At the bottom it's been very quiet this time, but Conflux has extended the deficit to 40 points. I'd say we might have a record for earliest elimination but this is Think Different, where it's possible to move up to 59 points relative to any other given player. Next time: I continue to not understand Conflux's answers.

- Hey there all you cool cats and kittens. Follow along here -

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
2. Lowest scoring team (total of players' scores)
3. Lowest score within each team (i.e. how you would do if your score was only compared to those of your team)
4. Least SHEEPy player (we'll get to that later, but it means lowest number of SHEEP answers)
5. Least SHEEPy team (total SHEEP answers)

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:

Well, old on the international stage, you're new in regards to the political scene of this region, thus, no nickname.
