kitik Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 But according to baumer, he's counting anything after today as part of the game. That seems strangely arbitrary. Why would Monday count towards summer but not Sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Yes. Its my game. My rules. :)Thats why its so important to read things I post guys. I dont usually make arbitrary threads. Anything it makes from here on out is part of the gross. Its much easier choosing a number now than Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasmmi Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 So for Spiderman to turn any specific country questions into a Yes it needs to make: Q4 (Australia) 31.5 + 6.195 = 37.695 total gross required Q5 (UK) 45 + 15.125 = 60.125 total gross required Q11 (Russia) No gross reported for the weekend yet so I assumed that its opening weekend will then technically count as part of the 35 required Million even though it opened Thursday Q19.5 (Brazil) not released so full gross will count Q19.7 (Spain) 20 + 3.873 = 23.873 total gross required I do noticed that the total foreign total has been reported for the weekend and some specific (most) markets have not. So it may be the case that these will be to be updated when BOM's region specific reports come in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chas brought something important to my attention this morning in the main thread and because of it, I've decided to count all the gross for ASM2 from before the beginning of the game. It has opened in a number of international markets and the entire gross will count towards the summer total. It's too confusing to keep track of the numbers from every market it's opened in so far, especially pertaining to the questions for this week. So adjust your numbers accordingly. Thanks.

kitik Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Good morning everyone. Chas brought something important to my attention Hmm, I haven't even read this week's questions yet. I'm glad some folks don't wait until the last minute. Domestic Bottom 5 2. Snowpiercer - 10.3m Baumer: Snowpiercer still isn't listed as wide, so can I assume it's not eligible for this question? Also, can I assume that if a movie we selected for the bottom 5 moves out of summer (or to maybe August 22), we'll still get credit for getting it right, since it's total gross by the end of the game would be zero?

BadAtGender Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Okay, done. Whether I make changes or not is going to be a battle between laziness and obsessiveness. Laziness is likely to win out.
