Cedarpoint1111 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I didn't know I was owed money from last year... I thought this was for fun! Thank you baumer, I appreciate the hard work you put into this game, so I really must decline the prize. I would much rather you donate the money to a good cause. Side note:If you donate to ALS, I would be off the hook for ice bucket challenge, right? LOL 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 SOTM 12: Here are five questions for you pertaining to GOTG. Each one you get right is worth 5000. No points for wrong answers. Only caveat is that if you go for all five, you must get all five right, Missing even one question and you lose 15,000. Go for as many or as little as you want. Will GOTG drop less than 7.5% on Labour Day weekend (3 day only)? Will GOTG pass Transformers before LD weekend? (so counting August 28th numbers) Will GOTG have a drop of less than 35% in the next two weekends? Will GOTG have a Thursday drop of less than 7.5% in the next two weeks? Will GOTG have a worldwide gross of more than 450 million by the end of the game (only Sunday estimates will count, so in other words, LD Monday is not part of this equation).? Cannot be scored yet....must wait for Sunday actuals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) You have four options for this question: 1) What will Transformers final gross be domestically by the end of the game? (3.5% cushion) 244.4M 2) What will Transformers final gross be in China by the end of the game? (3.5% cushion) 301M (should be closer to 318 but Mojo ignored one chain in China...so unfortunately 301 is the number we go by). 3) What will Transformers final WW gross be? (4% cushion) (don't think anyone went for this or the Germany question) 4) What will Transformers gross OW in Brazil, or Germany? (8.5% cushion) Cushion means that is your room for error. So it you think Transformers will gross 900 mill WW, then it has to be within 36 mill of that number. You can only go for one question. Get it right, you receive 12,000 points. Get it wrong, you lose 10,000 points Now...here's the trap. Go for all four, and you must get all four right, BUT YOU HAVE TO BE WITHIN 3% ON ALL ANSWERS. baumer: 12,000 mgs: 12,000 mulder: 12,000 blank: 12,000 glassfairy: 12,000 simiosnki: 12,000 24lost: 12,000 cjohn: 12,000 druv: 12,000 empire: 12,000 junk: 12,000 tele: 12,000 claire: 12,000 grim: 12,000 jajang: 12,000 ED: 12,000 darkelf: 12,000 ice: 12,000 narnia: 12,000 olive: 12,000 dipper: 12,000 chas: 12,000 films: 12,000 damien: 12,000 mattrek: 12,000 chewy: 12,000 bcf: 12,000 punishment: 12,000 snoopy: 12,000 cedar: 12,000 moviegeek: 12,000 alfred: 12,000 kitik: 12,000 gittes: 12,000 laguy: 12,000 greyghost: 12,000 numbers: 12,000 fern: 12,000 Edited September 1, 2014 by baumer 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
