Chasmmi's Winter Game - Grey Ghost is the WINNER!

[chasmmi]

Just a short reminder that revanant is not a new release this week. 

 

It is merely expanding

[Wrath]

CRAP, I forgot to answer my questions last week!  Stupid end of the year.

[MovieMan89]

Sooooo.....

is anyone not just taking a complete stab in the dark at question 11 this week?  I mean wow, I have no freakin clue!

Last time some obscure movie had a question the answer was no so I'm just repeating that  I'm taking a gamble on The Forest performing low and Revenant not breaking the Top 2.

12. Will Brooklyn, Carol or Spotlight have the best percentage change this weekend? 2000

 

 

I asnwered "NO" to this question, because I think "The Revenant" will have the best percentage change this Weekend. I've seen all of you chose a movie but do I miss something?

 

The question is pretty clear: it's not "Which among Brooklyn, Carol and Spotlight will have the best...."

Agreed. It seemed a clear yes or no question to me too.

Wow, I totally missed that somehow, but you're right I do think that's what chas was asking. Oops. 

 

EDIT: Actually it looks like chasmmi answered it in the "among" sense (choosing Carol), so I think that is what was meant. Can see how that can be taken either way though.

Anyways, for what its worth, @Jar Jar Chasmmi I wanted to change my 4th position in DAJK's SOTM from fifth wave to The finest hours. I realize I am past the deadline and I guess I can live with fifth wave as my choice too, but I just wanted to get this out of my system.  

[chasmmi]

Looking at how people answered,  it had become apparent that a fair number of people answered the spotlight,  Brooklyn,  Carol question differently to how i intended. 

 

As the interpretation of the question has led to some answering the simple answer that revanant well have as better percentage change than the other 3, the only fair thingy to do is mark the question as correct for everyone

[WrathOfHan]

Looking at SOTM 8, some of you guys better hope The Revenant doesn't hold well on Saturday and Sunday because it's not looking like SW will have another #1 weekend.

[BadAtGender]

I feel like the good fortune I had over the past few weeks is going to come to an end.

[WrathOfHan]

I've been slacking in weeklies but once SOTM 1 gets scored and the Oscar nominations get announced I'll get a nice payday. Next week's questions are going to be hard.

[Infernus]

I took a look at the Star Wars SOTM and boy, if Revenant does win the weekend that will be real bad news to everyone. Everybody but bcf26 gave an answer to the 28000 Q (how many w/e..), no body answered 0 and nobody used void. Most did use cut short or Lifesaver though but its still bad news. Lets hope that doesn't happen. 

[Infernus]

Also apparently a few people lost the SOTM as soon as deadline was over. Exxdee, that one guy and MikeKay42 all answered Yes to the Q - will SW outgross titanic before the end of 2015. That one guy used cut short on it but unfortunately he also answered 1 film in the Q- how many films will outgross SW on Jan 15th w/e and then gave 3 weeks as his answer to the next question without using any lifeline in any of them. Both of them can not be correct together. Moreover he also answered all but one questions...  

 

Avi/Sakskidz also made a similar mistake by answering no to whether SW will cross a Billion but Yes to whether it will cross 1.13B. He also didn't use any lifeline on either and he answered all the questions...

Ok, I was previously rooting for The Revenant, but now I'm thinking "NO I DON'T WANNA LOSE 80K WIN STAR WARS WIN."

[BadAtGender]

Did... I forget entirely about the Star Wars SOTM? I think I remember reading it, but... oops.

But I think we won't win any points for any correct answer if we (the users of cut short) get this wrong and will simply lose 28,000 points. And that too only if we get every other question correct (except the void/lifesaver one). So the best case scenario for both of us, if Revenant does win, is losing 28,000 points...

Looks like SW might squeak this one out, if those Saturday numbers hold and it doesn't collapse on Sunday.
