Now let's see what happened, and me oh my, is it a big event: The teams have been scrambled! The Wizards bigm10 - 87.08% Iceroll - 108.85% acsc1312 - 89.62% CJohn - 46.07% (placeholder) Goffe - 58.97% Average: 78.12% The Demons ChD - 46.07% (placeholder) chasmmi - 95.71% The Creator - 46.08% DoctorWho - 85.56% Punishment - 96.52% Average: 73.99% Hall Of Shame: -bigm10 (1) With this granddaddy of all twists, The Wizards have taken the top prize, despite having a neglectful player. However, instead of The Wizards having to go to tribal council, The Demons will be participating in a special competition to win a prize that may prove beneficial to future endeavors on Survivor. THE WIZARDS ARE PREDICTING HERE, NOT THE DEMONS. However, since Punishment had the highest score of his team, he has also earned the privilege of participating. There's no voting, but just a challenge.

The Creator Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yeah, that's the kind of shit that happens when you know nothing about the Oscars this year and when you realize you were almost about to forget and you have like 5 minutes to squeeze them in while planning a party. Terrible score on my end. Blegh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceroll Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Iceroll, how many of the oscar questions did you get correct - did you get them all correct? Here were my predictions: Part 1: Predict the following 3-day grosses Snitch 11.8m Dark Skies 9m Pretty easy, huh? Well, that's not the main part of this week. Part 2: Predict the Oscar winners in the following categories Picture Argo Director Ang Lee Actor Daniel Day-Lewis Actress Jennifer Lawrence Supporting Actor Tommy Lee Jones Supporting Actress Anne Hathaway Original Screenplay Django Unchained Adapted Screenplay Argo ------------------------------ Original Score Life of Pi Original Song Skyfall Film Editing Argo Cinematography Life of Pi Art Direction Les Miserables Costume Design Anna Karenina Makeup The Hobbit Sound Mixing Les Miserables Sound Editing Zero Dark Thirty Visual Effects Life of Pi Animated Feature Wreck it Ralph Documentary Feature Searching for Sugar Man Foreign Feature Amour I got most of the Oscar questions right but I also did pretty well on the openers and that was important cause they were the only two films we predicted this weekend.

chasmmi Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 As always just wanting to clarify, Assuming that Stoker is not included in the openers combined total right, just the 4 films given to predict.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) Yeah, just the four wide releases. EDIT: I'll actually exclude Phantom here because it would be a bit too difficult, due to the variability that lower grossers could have in rank.

chasmmi Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Phantom and last exorcism keep getting muddled in my mind, I was almost ready to guess something like 78th for question 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
