Congrats @Bates and @TalismanRing

 

Wow top 10 for me in the summer 

[8wombi7]

top ten, not bad considering only 4 people (and i'm not one of them) got at least some points for Morgan.

 

congrats to @Bates and @TalismanRing!

[TalismanRing]

I'm glad summer ended, another week like the last two and I'd have completely blown my lead.

[RandomCat]

I'm just going to ignore how terrible I am at this, and just keep playing.

A part of me feels like I'm being made fun of.

another part of me refuses to stay down!

Not making fun.  I'm a great admirer of that Steve Rogers chutzpah. I think it's great to keep participating even if you aren't consistently scoring high.  Look at how many other have dropped out.  We started at around 100.

 

My first week I was I think 67th or 68th so ...   I recommend looking at BOM,  looking for comparisons in films and how certain genres of films tend to behave and how films behave differently during different times of the year.  Also check the Theater count when they go up late Thur afternoon.  Though looking at my last two weeks ....

Oh, I'm not going to do this that seriously. It's just stupid fun for me. Still the worst score of anyone playing double digit games.

Theater counts, weekday multies, comparing genres and previous years. 

Takes 15 minutes, not too indulgent about the research but I am serious about winning.  There was no 10th place ribbon in my day and second place meant learning Russian. 

 

Got to do bomb shelter drills when I was a kid just before they ended them in school.  I guess they finally realized hiding under a desk wasn't going to save anyone from a nuke..

Didn't have 10th place ribbons either.

I just play to play, winning is just a plus. I know I'm not good enough to win, but I still have fun, so see no point in not playing.
