PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? Abstain

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) 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? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? Abstain
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 - MORE

2) Germany:  31.5M MORE

3) Portugal:  3M MORE

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 - NO

2) United Kingdom - YES

3) Columbia - NO

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.

 

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.    :)

 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

 

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews? NO

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. 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 question

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? ABSTAIN
Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? YES
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%?  ABSTAIN
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE

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 NO

2) United Kingdom YES

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.

 

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.  

 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points. These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

 

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

 

1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film.  So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 15

2) How many films will make a billion dollars this summer?  No cushion 1

3) What will the domestic total gross be for the top 3 horror films of the summer.  II don't want to see anything but a number in your answer.  Do not list the films.  Cushion of 50 mill $400M

9) Will any film released in August gross 100 mill before the end of the game? YES

10) Will Self/Less make more than 40 million? NO

PLAYERS:
 
There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.
 
The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions
 
This is a four parter:
 
1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews NO
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO
 
Scoring: 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. 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.

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES
 
Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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

Will Jurassic World and F7 combine to make more than Avengers in these markets?
 
1) Japan NO
2) United Kingdom YES

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically?
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally?
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW?

Scoring: 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. 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.

ABSTAIN

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 question

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer?
Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill?
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%?
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill?

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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

ABSTAIN

Double Secret Probation Bonus Question

MORE

2) Germany:  31.5M

 

LESS

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.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) 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? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? YES
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 - MORE
2) Germany: 31.5M MORE
3) Portugal: 3M MORE
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 - NO
2) United Kingdom - YES
3) Columbia - NO
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.

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you. I love this part of the game. :)

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points. These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining. Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points. Do not forget to do these. Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? ABSTAIN

Scoring: 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. 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 question ABSTAIN FROM ALL

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer?
Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill?
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%?
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill?

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE

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 YES

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.

 

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.    :)

 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

 

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically?
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW?

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer?
Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill?
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%?
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill?

ABSTAIN

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE
2) Germany: 31.5M MORE
3) Portugal: 3M MORE
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 YES
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.

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you. I love this part of the game. :)

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points. These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining. Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points. Do not forget to do these. Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film. So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 13

10) Will Self/Less make more than 40 million? YES

PLAYERS:
 
There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.
 
The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions
 
This is a four parter:
 
1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? Abstain
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO
 
Scoring: 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. 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 question
 
A) 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? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? Abstain
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES
 
Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 less
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 YES
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.
 
As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.   :)
 
For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.
 
All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.
 
1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film.  So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 11
2) How many films will make a billion dollars this summer? 1

5) How many films will make at least 500 million internationally? cushion of 1. 2
 
6) Will Terminator Genisys and Pitch Perfect 2 and Insidious 3 combine to gross more than F7 domestically? NO
7) Will Ted 2 make more than Ted? NO
8) Will Tele love Mad Max and will baumer love Jurassic World?  You must answer both.  This is an honour system question.  I will tell you right now that I think i will love Jurassic World. YES
9) Will any film released in August gross 100 mill before the end of the game? YES
10) Will Self/Less make more than 40 million? NO
 
11) How many films will make at least 750 million WW?  1 cushion 3

PLAYERS:

 

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

 

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

 

This is a four parter:

 

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? ABSTAIN

2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? Yes

3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews? Yes

4) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? ABSTAIN

 

Scoring: 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. 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 question

 

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? Abstain

Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? Yes

C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? Abstain

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? Yes

 

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go 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 Yes

2) Germany: 31.5M No

3) Portugal: 3M No

4) China: 200M Yes

 

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 Yes

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.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? ABSTAIN
Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? YES
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? ABSTAIN
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE

2) Germany:  31.5M MORE

3) Portugal:  3M MORE

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? ABSTAIN

 

1) Japan

2) United Kingdom

3) Columbia

4) Mexico

 

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.


Any questions please let me know.

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. 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 question

PLAYERS:

 

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

 

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

 

This is a four parter:

 

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? Yes

2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? Yes

3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews Yes

4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? Yes

 

Scoring: 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. 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.

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? Yes

 

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go 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.

PLAYERS:

 

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

 

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

 

This is a four parter:

 

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO

2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES

3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews YES

4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO

 

Scoring: 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. 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 question

 

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? NO

B )Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? NO

C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? NO

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

 

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go 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 MORE

2) Germany:  31.5M LESS

3) Portugal:  3M LESS

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.

 

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 YES

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.

 

BONUS 25 QUESTIONS

 

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.   

 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

 

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

 

1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film.  So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 17

2) How many films will make a billion dollars this summer?  No cushion 2

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews ABSTAIN
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) 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? ABSTAIN
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? NO
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? ABSTAIN

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 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.

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 YES

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.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? *ABSTAIN*
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? *ABSTAIN*
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews *YES*
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? *ABSTAIN*

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? *ABSTAIN*
B) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? *ABSTAIN*
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? *ABSTAIN*
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? *ABSTAIN*

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 *YES*

2) Germany:  31.5M *YES* 

3) Portugal:  3M *YES*

4) China:  200M *YES*

 

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 *NO*

2) United Kingdom *NO*

3) Columbia *YES*

4) Mexico *NO*

17)  Note*** Jurassic World does not qualify for this question

A) 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? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? NO
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? ABSTAIN

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE

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 YES

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.

 

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.    :)

 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

 

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

 

1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film.  So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 14

2) How many films will make a billion dollars this summer? No cushion 3

PLAYERS:

 

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

 

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

 

This is a four parter:

 

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? No

2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? Yes

3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews? Yes

4) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? No

 

Scoring: 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. 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 question

 

A) 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? Yes

C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? No

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? Yes

 

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go 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

1) Russia: 42M Yes

2) Germany: 31.5M Yes

3) Portugal: 3M No

4) China: 200M Yes

 

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.

PLAYERS:

 

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

 

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

 

This is a four parter:

 

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? N

2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? 

3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews? 

4) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? N

 

Scoring: 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. 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 question

 

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? N

 Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? Y

C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? N

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? 

 

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go 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 

2) Germany: 31.5M Y

3) Portugal: 3M 

4) China: 200M 

 

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 

2) United Kingdom N

3) Columbia 

4) Mexico N

 

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? You have a cushion of 1 film. So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 15

2) How many films will make a billion dollars this summer? No cushion  2

International Flair #2:
Avengers: Age of Ultron
Jurassic World

Ant-Man
Inside Out
Mad Max: Fury Road
What five films will have the best weekends World Wide? I realize some films open day and date, and others do not. This is why it is now just best weekend. And to avoid more confusion, the weekend will include any numbers the film makes from the time it opens during that week. So if a film opens on a Wednesday, and all of that gross is reported as the opening gross, it will count.
For every film in the top 5 you call correctly, you get 25,000 points.
For every film you call incorrectly, you lose 10,000 points.
If you call 3 of the top 5 correctly, regardless of order, you get a 20,000 point bonus.
If you call all 5 correctly, regardless of order, you get a 75,000 point bonus

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
Tell me what films will finish with the 5 best opening weekends domestically. Opening weekends will include any money made on Thursday sneaks. One caveat to this is that if a film changes it's release date, only the gross from Thursday to Sunday will count. So for example, if Jurassic World suddenly decides that it wants to open on a Wednesday, only the gross from Thursday to Sunday will count. There will be no exceptions to this.
Avengers: Age of Ultron – 220M
Jurassic World – 90M
Ant-Man – 85M
Minions – 84M
Inside Out – 68M

Scoring for best opening weekends:
For every film you call correctly in the top five, regardless of order, you will receive 15,000 points. For every film you call in the exact spot it opens, you will get 25,000 points. If you are able to call 3 of the 5 correctly, you will receive a 75,000 point bonus. Call all five correctly, you get a 250,000 point bonus. For every film you call incorrectly in the top 5, you lose 10,000 points.
And finally, because it went over pretty well last year I am going to have a 5 lowest grossing films of the summer bonus.
DOPE
Shaun the Sheep
The Outskirts
Self/Less
The Gift

You pick the 5 lowest grossing films of the summer. You can only choose films that are listed on boxofficemojo as WIDE. So for a film to qualify for the bottom 5 grossing films of the summer, please make sure that it is listed as wide as of April 26th. Once that date has passed, I will then list all films here that are listed as wide.
And remember the lowest grossing films can only be released up until August 14th.
For every film that makes the bottom 5 that you call correctly, you will receive 20,000. If you can call 4 of 5 right, you get a 50,000 bonus. If you call all 5 right, you get a 150,000 point bonus. There are no deduction of points for wrong answers. This is 100% bonus for you.
I had a blast running this last year and it will be just as much fun this year. I hope all of you participate. The three winners last year were incredibly accurate and I expect nothing less this year.
This thread will be the thread where the summer game discussion will take place up until the opening of the game. After April 26th, I will lock this.. Once the game starts, there will be a whole new forum opened where we will post our weekly answers and so on. More on this later as the information becomes available.

PLAYERS:
There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions
This is a four parter:
1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews? YES
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? ABSTAIN
Scoring: 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. 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 question
A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? NO
B )Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? ABSTAIN
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? NO
Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE
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.

Will Jurassic World and F7 combine to make more than Avengers in these markets?
1) Japan YES
2) United Kingdom YES

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically?  
Abstain
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews Abstain
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? Abstain

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? 
Abstain
B) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? Abstain
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? Abstain
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 Abstain

2) Germany:  31.5M YES

3) Portugal:  3M Abstain

4) China:  200M YES

 

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 YES

3) Colombia 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.

 

As promised, here are your additional 20-25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.   

 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

 

All grosses come from boxofficemojo.com, all genres are determined by boxofficemojo.com.....so if I ask you a question about a romance, if that film is listed as a sci-fi/romance, then it will qualify as a romance.

 

1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film.  So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 16

2) How many films will make a billion dollars this summer?  No cushion 1

3) What will the domestic total gross be for the top 3 horror films of the summer.  I don't want to see anything but a number in your answer.  Do not list the films.  Cushion of 50 mill $175M

4) How  many films will gross at least 40 million opening day?  No cushion 1

5) How many films will make at least 500 million internationally? cushion of 1. 3

 

6) Will Terminator Genisys and Pitch Perfect 2 and Insidious 3 combine to gross more than F7 domestically? NO

7) Will Ted 2 make more than Ted? NO

8) Will Tele love Mad Max and will baumer love Jurassic World?  You must answer both.  This is an honour system question.  I will tell you right now that I think i will love Jurassic World. YES / YES

9) Will any film released in August gross 100 mill before the end of the game? YES

10) Will Self/Less make more than 40 million? NO

 

11) How many films will make at least 750 million WW?  1 cushion 3

12) How many films will make at least 30 million OD?  1 cushion 3

13) Will Magic Mike XXL have a bigger opening day than Terminator genisys? YES

14) Will Pan be one of the top 7 grossing films of the summer domestically? NO

15) Will Ant Man gross at least 500 mill WW? NO

 

16) Will any film gross 250 million in China? YES

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.

1.Avengers will gross less than 600M

 

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 question

 

A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer?

Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill?

C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%?

D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill?

 

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go 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

Abstatin

 

 

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(less)

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-yes

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.

 

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you. I love this part of the game.

PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions

This is a four parter:

1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? NO

2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES

3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews Abstain

4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO

Scoring: 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. 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 question

A) 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? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? Abstain
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? YES

Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 - MORE

2) Germany: 31.5M MORE

3) Portugal: 3M MORE

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 - NO

2) United Kingdom - YES

3) Columbia - NO

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.

As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you. I love this part of the game. 

For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points. These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining. Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points. Do not forget to do these. Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

1) How many films will gross at least 100 million dollars this summer? You have a cushion of 1 film. So if you are off by 1, you still get full points. 14

PLAYERS:
 
There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.
 
The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions
 
This is a four parter:
 
1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? YES
2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES
3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews ABSTAIN
4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO
 
Scoring: 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. 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 question
 
A) 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? NO
C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? NO
D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? ABSTAIN
 
Get any question right: 7000
Get any question wrong: -7000
Abstain from all four questions: 5000
Go 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 MORE
2) Germany:  31.5M LESS
3) Portugal:  3M MORE
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 NO
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.
 
As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you.  I love this part of the game.    :)
 
For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points.  These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining.  Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points.  Do not forget to do these.  Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.
