Mulder Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) I might've overshot my DoFP and Godzilla predictions, and I might've undershot HTTYD2 internationally. So that's why I think I'm coming in last. Edited April 6, 2014 by Mulder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 I can promise you this. As long as you answer to questions every week you will not come in last. This is a long game and inevitably people drop out halfway through. So don't worry about finishing last Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Films Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 This is my first summer game so really hope I do well. I've had a mixed bag in competition on here, I won box office league, I did well in alliance until it got cancelled, I did bad in big brother and I fucked up in winters game.In the winter game, I did well on the weekly questions but fell down a lot of spaces and really messed up on pre-season questions.

baumer Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 I think it's great that all of you guys want to win. But my advice is answer all the preseason questions (there's a lot this year) and play every week. You will do well. And anything can happen. Anyone can win this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I'm wondering if we're all underestimating Jersey Boys as a new Mamma Mia of sorts. I know the play is pretty popular with the older crowd.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I'm wondering if we're all underestimating Jersey Boys as a new Mamma Mia of sorts. I know the play is pretty popular with the older crowd.... That's how I felt about Rock of Ages a few summers ago. Never taking that chance again 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Almost done. A valuable lesson I learned from my freshman year was to not underestimate the 'abstain' option. I was under the impression that it would make me less of a man, but using abstain when necessary is just good common sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I can promise you this. As long as you answer to questions every week you will not come in last. This is a long game and inevitably people drop out halfway through. So don't worry about finishing last Although that didn't stop me spending the entire season up until about 4 weeks from the end consistently being around 27th or 28th out of the 25 people still playing. It takes a special kind of predictor to still be behind players that had dropped out of the game months earlier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
