Hah, me too. I found it a bit complicated especially at first, but once I got rolling it wasn't so bad. Still, probably a good idea to compare our scores to be safe. I dinged Exxdee for it since its a different category. I figured it was comparable to Actress/Supporting Actress.

 

There were folks for whom Carol not getting nominated for Best Pic, by itself, was a ~100k swing. Its kind of astonishing that folks ended up as close together as we did. Mostly.

 

Ok, I got:

darkelf 113k

glassfairy 87k

bcf26 47k

WrathofHan 44k

Wrath 44k

sakskidz 37k

DAJK 36k

ThatOneGuy 36k

Exxdee 20k

JJ-8 19k

Filmovie 18k

Grey Ghost 14k

Blanks 9k

MovieMan -2k

Chasmmi -3k

misafeco -40k

Infernus -44k

Tele -59k

Kayumanggi -105k

MikeKaye42 -230k

Did you add in the multipliers for specific categories? If you have one you get double points, 2-3 is triple, 4 or more is quadruple. Mine for example:

 

The Big Short: 15k (Not specific: Picture 5, Director 5, Supporting Actor 3, Screenplay 2)

Bridge of Spies: 11k (Not specific: Picture 5, Supporting Actor 3, Screenplay 2, Score 1)

Brooklyn: 8k (Specific: Actress 8)

Carol: 11k (Not specific: Actress 4, Supporting Actress 3, Screenplay 2, Score 1, Cinematography 1)

Creed: 3k (Not specific: Supporting Actor 3

The Danish Girl: 6k (Specific: Supporting Actress 6)

Room: 16k (Not specific: Picture 5, Director 5, Actress 4, Screenplay 2)

Spotlight: 36k (Specific: Picture 15, Director 15, Screenplay 6)

Trumbo: 4k (Not specific: Actor 4)

 

That's 110k

Hmm. We have a lot of differences.

 

Lets look at a simple one:

 

ThatOneGuy. I have him at 36k, you have him at 24k.

 

I have him down as picking:

Brooklyn

Carol

Creed

Danish Girl

Good Dinosaur

Peanuts

Room

Spotlight

 

No specific category picks. Movies were worth:

 

Brooklyn 11 (pic, Actress, Adap Screenplay)

Carol 11 (Actress, Sup Actress, Adap Screenplay, Score, Cinematograph)

Creed 3 (Sup Actor)

Danish Girl 7 (Actor, Sup Actress)

Good Dinosaur -15 (not nominated)

Peanuts -15 (not nominated)

Room 16 (Pic, Actress, Director, Adap Screenplay)

Spotlight 18 (Pic, Sup Actress, Sup Actor, Director, Original Screenplay)

 

The positives add up to 66, minus 30 for the animated ones and we're at 36k. What's different about our math?

Yeah, I probably put him down as specific on the animated ones since I was copying and pasting to save time from typing.

Biggest swings either way were Carol, where at least a couple people went -72k, and Spotlight, where a few people went +60k.

 

I'm still not sure if I could say whether going specific or general was the better strategy. Going specific was certainly the higher risk strategy.

 

darkelf, who won, only went specific on about half his guesses, glassfairy and bcf26 who came in 2nd and 3rd went specific on *all* their guesses but they both had very short lists. WrathofHan went specific on half his guesses and I went short on just 1 and it cost me (Peanuts. Boo). On the other hand, all the big minus scores were people who went specific on everything.

Also Wrath, make sure you're not marking down stuff like The Martian or Steve Jobs since they came out before the eligible window. They won't count as losses.

 

Ok, I found a couple things. I should indeed have had you as at 110k. I had two copy-paste errors on yours, I left our Bridge entirely and I had you down as Pic, Dir, Orig Scree for both Spotlight and Trumbo when it should have been just Spotlight. 

 

Yeah, I did take out Martian and Steve Jobs, but everything else seemed ok (Crimson Peak and Heart of the Sea).

Wow I am officially out of the game now. I did not expect it to happen so soon. Oh my greed! Why did I include cinematography for BoS? I could have gotten so much from that. And what's up with carol not getting best pic? Ah, well. I had gotten too much into the game. The good thing is now I have one less worry and can enjoy most movies' run without thinking of personal benefits. Don't care if SW makes less than 952m either now, another -60,000 wouldn't matter now (didn't mention it anywhere but truth be told, I had been 'worrying' about that a lot these past few days, thinking of  all possibilities and chances and how the 90,000 gain that would get me over Exxdee may help me win the game :))

To be fair, BOS stood a very good chance at Cinematography.

We're actually pretty close on most of them, now that I'm looking in more detail. I'm pretty sure I'm at 44k. How did you get such a big minus for DAJK? I didn't include Big Short for DAJK because it wasn't really clearly listed as a answer.

 

Edit - Hmm, actually we've got a bunch of little differences. Nuts.

The Martian doesn't count as it was released before October 16, it has no effect on your score.
