baumer Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 You have four options for this question: 1) What will Transformers final gross be domestically by the end of the game? (3.5% cushion) 2) What will Transformers final gross be in China by the end of the game? (3.5% cushion) 3) What will Transformers final WW gross be? (4% cushion) 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. If you manage to get all four right, you get 60,000. If you get even 1 wrong, you lose 60,000. For those of you who complain about losing too many points by going for it all, I have decided to alter the deal and increase the amount of points lost instead of decrease. Pray I don't alter it any further. Keep complaining and I'll make it even more. Due Monday July 14th at 11:59 pm. Good luck!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasmmi Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Well then to save me from the anguish that comes from missing out on points by 17 dollars on the final day... Domestic gross: Obscenely high number used as a joke but now removed because real prediction is in a later post in this thread. There now I can relax about this question knowing that there was never a chance of scoring points Edited July 14, 2014 by chasmmi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassfairy Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) 4) What will Transformers gross OW in Brazil, or Germany? (8.5% cushion) First of all having the words Brazil and Germany so close together is still quite traumatizing and hurtful. I feel like I should get the full points because this post didn't even have a trigger warning. Surely that must be in the summer game bylaws? If not then: 1) 259M also fuck Germany Edited July 13, 2014 by glassfairy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
