chasmmi Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 lol, that'll be the easiest SOTM to score of all time It's looking that way: chasmmi 50k Everyone else... (i haven't even looked at what the abstain value is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fern Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I'm hoping for future SOTM questions the punishment for getting it wrong is a bit less severe, and/or the level of accuracy required is a bit lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Can we answer 7.1 without answering 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted June 1, 2014 Founder / Operator Share Posted June 1, 2014 Even though I retired from the game this year, I couldn't resist snooping around the current SOTMs in play. Seeing that #6 was up yesterday, I would have chosen X-Men for #3 and #6. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm off my leash this year. If I did SOTM questions like this with Shawn in the game, he'd take away my moderating title. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 The thing about the SOTM's that those who complain about them fail to realize is that they are NOT supposed to go for all of it. That's just the carrot. SOTM questions are supposed to be between 8-12K. And for every question I have asked so far has that option. But if you want to be stupid enough and or ballsy enough to go for it all, then the penalty must be more severe. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattrek Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) Luckily, I had none of them in my top 15. :)On the other hand, I have Godzilla in my top 3 making over 300M. I also didn't pick any of them, but I had TASM2 at 325m Luckily everyone is pretty much screwed on that, so it won't be a huge points swing.

Michael Gary Scott Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 My dom predictions aren't looking so bad. I'm in the ballpark of Spidey, neighbors, Godzilla, and DOFP missing the top 7 OW though will hurt me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
