Bonus 4) what will Frozen worldwide total be after this weekend? 5000 $1,252.7m

 

I guessed 1.2525b, which is 1,252.5m (so only .2m) off. Clare Holt guessed the same. I had thought we were in the clear since the next closest appeared to be .3m off.

 

But FUCKING TELE guessed 1,252.735, that lucky sonuvabitch.

Bonus 1 - 69.225% MovieMan89

Bonus 2 - 173.22 grey ghost

Bonus 3 - 18.275 darkelf

Bonus 4 - 1252.735B Telemachos

 

grim22 edited his answer after the deadline, so he's not eligible to win the bonus points

 

baumer made that rule very clear last year, you can answer the regular questions, but only people who answer by the posted deadline are eligible to win the bonus points

This is what Baumer said 3 days ago. I contest you not awarding me points. Baumer can take it up actually.

 

 

ya guys I am not overly strict this year. I know I said at the beginning of the year deadlines would be met with an iron fist but because I am hardly ever online as long as you get your answers in before someone locks it you're fine. Now obviously that does not mean you can get your answers in after the initial numbers come out but if its an hour after the deadline or a couple I wouldn't worry too much about it.

That's the same as last year. He accepted late answers, but he wouldn't let people snipe bonus points by posting after the deadline.

 

I don't even remember what I edited after the deadline, not sure if it was the bonus or if it was the midnight gross answer as I changed my mind on Dragon pretty late. But I don't see how that would affect the bonus as I didn't see anyone's answers when I wrote mine, only realized I had underbid Darkelf by very little when the answers came in today. Baumer's call either way.

yes, it was

 

I somehow really doubt that, especially not a bonus which asked about a WW weekend for a movie which is a crapshoot anyway. If I had to change based on that, and considering the World Cup weekend, I would have gone lower than anyone else.

I like to help score the bonus questions on Mondays, either helping baumer or whoever else is doing the scoring that week, and a lot of weeks I'll create a simple text file of all the bonus answers at the deadline in order to do that so I can immediately figure out the winning answer on Monday. I created one this week right at 3:01 am, and the answer you currently have listed for that question was not there.

 

Here's the list for that question, as you can see, your answer is nowhere to be seen:

 

 

72.5337050.4525044.63533.532.8832.8432.130.59730.129.46328.226.7226.5225.8125.45425.4424.83124.5524.524.35424.3223.723.623.45678923.2522.67122.522.421.89221.320.8252019.5519.5219.451918.88818.5418.27518

The number of entries you have in your list is actually equal to all the players who predicted, which means that my prediction should be in there.

 

But you are insinuating that in 20 minutes, I somehow looked at all the answers, and wrote down an answer which was not the lowest and still somehow ended up being a weird number which came closest to the answer. We really need a ruling by Baumer here. If he says that yes, I cheated somehow by coming closest to the answer despite not underbidding every single player, then I will accept it. But count the entries you have listed, it is exactly the number of people who predicted this week.
