It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right. The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questionsThis is a four parter:1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? Yes2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? Yes3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews Yes4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? YesScoring: All questions you answer correctly are worth 7000 points. You can go for as many as you like.Here is the catch: Every answer you call incorrectly you lose 10,000 points.There are no points for abstaining, with one caveat down below. ***Even more bonus and more treachery:If you go 4/4 you get a 28,000 point bonus. So this means you will get a total of 56,000 points for this question (7000X4 plus 28,000 point bonus)However, if you go for all 4 you must get all four correct. If you get even one incorrect, you will lose 20,000 points. So what this means is, if you go for all four and even if you get 3/4 correct, not only will you NOT get the 11,000 but you will lose a full 15,000 points.This question is worth a lot of points for those ballsy enough to go for all 4, but it will kick your ass if you get too cocky. PLEASE READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND IT FULLY. IF YOU DO NOT, THEN ASK ME. ONCE THE GAME STARTS, CLAIMING YOU DIDN'T READ IT RIGHT WILL NOT BE AN EXCUSE.THE BOTTOM LINE IS IF YOU GO FOR ALL FOUR QUESTIONS, YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST GET ALL FOUR RIGHT IN ORDER TO GET POINTS.Remember, you don't have to answer any of them.

It's totally up to you.You can choose to go for as many or as little as you want.***CAVEAT***If you choose to abstain from all 4, you will get 5000 for doing so. You must tell me if you are abstaining.NEW QUESTION:This is a four part question. Again, you have choices.Answer any part of the question. Each answer you get correct you will receive 7000 points. Each answer you get wrong, you will lose 7000 points. If you go for all four parts of the question, you must get all four parts correct. If you get even one wrong after going for it all, you will lose 7,000 points. You can go for all of it, none of it and some of it. Choice is yours.17) Note*** Jurassic World does not qualify for this questionA) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? NO Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill?

But you must go for all four to qualify for the bonus Double Secret Probation Bonus Question Very simple, but very dangerous. I'll give you a number, you tell me if Avengers will gross more or less than that number in said markets. 1) Russia: 42M More 2) Germany: 31.5M LESS 3) Portugal: 3M MORE 4) China: 200M LESS If you go for this question, you must get all 4 correct. This is not a partial question. If you get at least 3 of the 4 correct, you will get 50,000. If you choose to abstain from this question, you will lose 15,000 points. If you go for the question and you do not get at least 3 or the 4 correct, you will lose 30,000 points. Choose Wisely.

Will Jurassic World and F7 combine to make more than Avengers in these markets? 1) Japan YES 2) United Kingdom NO 3) Columbia NO 4) Mexico NO Each answer will be yes or no. Nothing more. You must get at least three correct. Get three correct, get a bonus of 50,000, don't get three correct, lose 25,000, abstain, lose 10,000.1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer?

So what this means is, if you go for all four and even if you get 3/4 correct, not only will you NOT get the 11,000 but you will lose a full 15,000 points.This question is worth a lot of points for those ballsy enough to go for all 4, but it will kick your ass if you get too cocky. PLEASE READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND IT FULLY. IF YOU DO NOT, THEN ASK ME. ONCE THE GAME STARTS, CLAIMING YOU DIDN'T READ IT RIGHT WILL NOT BE AN EXCUSE.THE BOTTOM LINE IS IF YOU GO FOR ALL FOUR QUESTIONS, YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST GET ALL FOUR RIGHT IN ORDER TO GET POINTS.Remember, you don't have to answer any of them. Or you can answer as little as you want. It's totally up to you.You can choose to go for as many or as little as you want.***CAVEAT***If you choose to abstain from all 4, you will get 5000 for doing so. You must tell me if you are abstaining.NEW QUESTION:This is a four part question. Again, you have choices.Answer any part of the question. Each answer you get correct you will receive 7000 points. Each answer you get wrong, you will lose 7000 points. If you go for all four parts of the question, you must get all four parts correct. If you get even one wrong after going for it all, you will lose 7,000 points. You can go for all of it, none of it and some of it. Choice is yours.17) Note*** Jurassic World does not qualify for this questionA) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? YesWill any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? YesC) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? NoD) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YesGet any question right: 7000Get any question wrong: -7000Abstain from all four questions: 5000Go for all four, and get all four correct not only will you get the 28,000, you get a bonus of 28,000. But you must go for all four to qualify for the bonus Double Secret Probation Bonus Question Very simple, but very dangerous. I'll give you a number, you tell me if Avengers will gross more or less than that number in said markets. 1) Russia: 42M Less 2) Germany: 31.5M More 3) Portugal: 3M Less 4) China: 200M More If you go for this question, you must get all 4 correct. This is not a partial question. If you get at least 3 of the 4 correct, you will get 50,000. If you choose to abstain from this question, you will lose 15,000 points. If you go for the question and you do not get at least 3 or the 4 correct, you will lose 30,000 points. Choose Wisely. The "Hey maybe you haven't been keeping up on current events but we just got our asses kicked pal" question of debauchery. Will Jurassic World and F7 combine to make more than Avengers in these markets? 1) Japan Yes 2) United Kingdom NO 3) Columbia Yes 4) Mexico Yes Each answer will be yes or no. Nothing more. You must get at least three correct. Get three correct, get a bonus of 50,000, don't get three correct, lose 25,000, abstain, lose 10,000.

Mattrek Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Are the pre pre season questions due the same date as everything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Sorry to ask the question again but no one answered the first time: Question 13 is about sequels. Is Minions a sequel, or does it not count since it's a spin off not a direct sequel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Aren't there also like 25 extra questions? Wondering if I should do those before I post my rough copy of predicts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Aren't there also like 25 extra questions? Wondering if I should do those before I post my rough copy of predicts. Oh, I didn't realise that. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 uhh where are these 25 questions? Title says page 8, and they first appear on Panda's post. But I don't see a post by Baumer actually asking the questions? I'm confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I'm looking as well Treeroy. I remember him saying something about 25 extra questions, I just assumed. I'm sorry if I made a mistake, but I'm pretty sure there are questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
