Hi! This is my own daily game that I made recently. You are SheepleDog and we need to guide the herd back together.

That means you are trying to guess the most popular wrong answers to each question. The more popular your wrong answers are, the more sheep you collect. 5 questions and 3 answers each. The actual right answer scatters your flock for that question. So avoid that.

Without real players populating the questions, it wasn’t perfectly straightforward to figure out how to rank the wrong answers. So that part, and the initial bell-curve fitting of your final score are simulated with the help of an LLM tool, for now. It’s not very desirable, but I’m hoping that won’t last long as the game gets more players and bonus questions get answered to generate real human data.

I hope this is interesting to you. I think arriving at the correct answer, and avoiding it while thinking about how people may get the question wrong is enjoyable as a daily game.

Typos should be fine most of the time, and acronyms and some synonyms should also work. But I'm not super confident about it so I made non-scoring answers not use up a guess in case I fail in fuzzy matching or having a valid answer not show up in the simulated answers.

Honestly you can go to town if you're not saying the correct answer. The timer should be enough to try out a bunch of stuff because I doubled it at some point after seeing my girlfriend struggle typing things out lol.
