4815162342 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 The fuzzball sure got to laugh it up. But now we see #ED in the South Passage. He revealed his true feelings for Chewy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Tele's probably grateful now that I gave him a little friendly challenge the first week. He gets to sit out the chaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it. Well, people can only be challenged once. After this week half of the top 12 will have been challenged (assuming no one gets the -75k whammy ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) After all this posturing and points grabbing, the winner will almost surely be decided by the Worldwide Opening Weekend and the 125000 point bonus for being close to the OW number. Whoever got 2 of those bonuses is almost surely going to end up the winner regardless of what else happens. That huge bonus for WW OW (more than 4 times the next closest bonus for anything) will end up swinging the points and making someone win I am sure.

CJohn Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I CHALLENGE CHASMMI! (Baumer's Approval pending) 1. Will GOTG make more than 40.935M this weekend domestically? (Actuals) 2. Will TMNT open over 43.39M? 3. Will 2nd-8th place combine to gross more than GOTG's opening week? 4. Will any movie increase more than 74.5% on Friday? 5. Which movie will be first place on Saturday? 6. Will Hercules drop between 56.5% and 59.5% domestically this weekend? 7. Will Boyhood increase this weekend between 20.5% and 24.5%? ____ Which 2 the following films (you need to get both right) will finish closest (Percentage) to the target gross given by the end of the game? Also, tell me in which days those 2 movies you chose will cross the marks below (you have a one day cushion). Guardians - 235M TF4 - 248M Lucy - 110M Apes - 209.1M Tammy - 86.5M So if film A has a target of 100m and B is 200M, if A finishes with 90M and B with 185M B would be the answer as it is closer percentage wise (185/200 = 92.5% whilst 90/100 = 90% ) Bumping for B to see.

baumer Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 i also agree it should be over under question. But at the same time questions that have ranges can be figured out. So it's not a question i will ask but at the same time it's not an unfair question. But if too many people have problems with questions like that and people are trying to f*** somebody over and not be in the spirit of the game then i will have to step in eventually.
