grey ghost Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Looking at some basic mistakes I've made I've blown at least 150 thousand points for the overall game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 And this is why this question freaked me out back when it first came out. Is having a single SotM that can result in people being up or down 200k points a good idea? Scoring it was *fun* but I'm still not sure if it was a good idea or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, in retrospect, it's a massively over-powered SOTM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 This is going to give Exxdee a pretty good gap between whoever's #2 but anything can change in a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Based on what corrections Wrath and I have made for SOTM 6 so far (definitely not final ) , this is where the standings would be (anything neither of us have definitely figured out I'll use my calculations): 1. Exxdee: 620k (+107k, but it depends if Chasmmi lets him get Adapted Screenplay correct) 2. darkelf: 543k (+113k) 3. Telemachos: 462k (+37k) 4. WrathOfHan: 459k (+110k) 5. DAJK: 455k (+44k) 6. DamienRoc: 444k (+5k) 7. Jajang: 437k (+29k) 8. Wrath: 415k (+44k) 9. Infernus: 405k (-38k) 10. MovieMan89: 398k (-11k) 11. ThatOneGuy: 394k (+36k) 12. Blankments: 393k (+9k) 13. grey ghost: 392k (+17k) 14. Filmovie: 388k (+20k) 15. glassfairy: 377k (+87k) 16. Chasmmi: 338k (-3k) 17. misafeco: 336k (-10k) 18. sakskidz: 309k (+37k) 19. bcf26: 301k (+47k) 20. kayumanggi: 280k (-105k) 21. MikeKaye42: 13k (-212k) I'll recalculate what the scores were for it later when I have more time. If ExxDee gets Spotlight marked wrong, the gap between him and darkelf will be pretty small. Let's not forget we also have SOTM 8 which will change things even more. Edited January 15, 2016 by WrathOfHan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasmmi Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Just to put some veteran and new players' minds at rest. Summer will not be as insane with the SOTM's etc. (still a little bit but not as much). Winter is the time to be a little bit more experimental and see what sticks. And although I'll likely get to the scoring in about 24-36 hours, I will say that I made a point of being strict with choosing specific Oscar categories, so yeah the screenplay thing should be marked as wrong. (I will probably do this Oscar question again next year, but will find a way to tone down the points quite a bit. ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
