    what is it ?

    This:

    I got a bet:The Avengers OVER The Hobbit Worldwide.Come on you fuckin hobbit loonies, lets see who got the balls to accept this challenge. :P

    ^With most people predicting $400m+ for The Hobbit, and some even Over $1b Worldwide, I'm surprised that no one is taking the bait. But with all honesty, The Avengers is the clear winner for the year, with the OW, DOM, INT, and WW.

    Ranked at #12, not so bad, all I know is..

    POINT SYSTEM: The point system will be very similar to last year, but with a few changes. You will rewarded even more for accuracy.

    For every film you call correctly in the top 12, in any order, you will get 15,000 points. For every film you call in the exact spot, you will get 25,000 points. So you must think this out thoroughly. You will also lose 10,000 points for every film in the top 12 that you call incorrectly. So, for example, if say The Dark Knight Returns will be in the top 12 twelve, and it misses the top 12, you will lose 10000 points PLUS whatever you miss the gross by.

    And one more caveat to this is the double whammy rule. If you call a film to hit the top 12 and it misses, you will lose points for missing the top 12 and you will lose points if the gross misses by more than the 40 million allotted to you. If however you call a film incorrectly in the top 12 but you are within the 40 million, YOU WILL NOT GET CREDIT FOR THOSE POINTS. This is a rule that I have always wanted to be in the game but through unclear wording, it never has been. That changes this year. This is a game of accuracy and as such your rewards are high as is your punishment.

    Back to the scoring.

    If you are able to call the top three positions right, in order, regardless of the gross, you will get a 75,000 point bonus.

    If you are able to call the top four positions right, in order, regardless of the gross, you will get a 100,000 point bonus.

    If you can call the top five positions right, in order, regardless of gross, you will get a 250,000 point bonus.

    If you are a genius and can call all 12 right, in order, regardless of gross, you will get a 750,000 point bonus and basically win the game.

    As a side note, in the FOUR previous years in this game, no one has called the top five correct yet.

    OTHER ADD ONS:

    Call SPOTS 3-5 correct, regardless of order, and receive a 150,000 point bonus.

    Call 6 of the 12 films correctly, regardless of the order, and receive a 150,000 point bonus.

    Call 9 of the top 12 correct, regardless of order, receive a 300,000 point bonus.

    Call all 12 correct, regardless of order, and you get a 500,000 point bonus.

    This does not eliminate the bonus points originally mentioned, it will just add to them. So for example, if you happen to call the top five positions correctly, you will get the 250K bonus for having the top 5 in any order, PLUS YOU WILL GET THE 150k BONUS FOR HAVING POSITIONS 3-5 IN ORDER.

    So even if you are not doing so well with the bonus points, a huuuuuuge premium is put on calling the films in the right order, so do your research.

    For the gross that you predict, for every film that you call within 20 mill, you will get 10,000 points. If you call it within 30 mill, you get 5000 bonus points. If you miss the films gross by 30.01-40 mill you will not lose any points. From 40.01 to 60 mill you lose 5000 points. For every 20 mill you miss after the first 60 mill, you will lose 1000 points per 20 mill. Even if you miss the gross by 61 mill, that extra 1 mill will cause you to lose a full 1000 points.

    For even more of an accuracy bonus, if you can call any film within 5 million of the actual gross, you will receive a bonus of 20,000. If you can call the gross within 2 million, you get a bonus of 25,000.

    ^That's gonna either make or break everyone playing this year.
