It is time...

[WrathOfHan]

At least I actually made the Top 5 this time.

[MovieMan89]

Thanks for all the scoring Chas!

 

Damn, I shoulda been better about not missing so many SOTMs and weeklies this summer, I think I didn't answer over half of the SOTMs. If I hadn't been bad about that, with my top 15 score I may have stood a good chance to really a hit a new game highpoint for myself.  

[chasmmi]

Scores going into the top 15...

 

Darkelf: 2,243,000

Chewy: 2,142,000 (101,000 behind 1st)

Damienroc: 1,994,000 (148,000 behind 2nd, 249,000 behind 1st)

 

Spoiler

 

Damien's top 15 score was... 781,000 giving a final total of 2,775,000

 

Spoiler

Chewy's top 15 score was...  600,000 giving a final total of 2,742,000 and means that he cannot win the game.

 

Spoiler

It is down to Darkelf who needs 500,000 to finish 2nd and 533,000 to be champion

 

Darkelf's totals were:

 

12/15 correct = 180,000 positions score

His bonuses totalled 350,000 bringing things up to 530,000

 

Therefore if darkelf's predicted domestic gross bonuses add up to 3000 points or more then they are the champ.

His gross bonus total came to

Minus 5000 points, Damien is the Champion!!!!

 

Well done all three of you

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[chasmmi]

Fun fact:

 

If The Conjuring 2 had grossed an extra $28,000 domestic, 1st and 2nd places would be switched.

 

That's how little it came down to.

[Chewy]

At the end of the day we all did better than Tele

[That One Girl]

Damn, outside of the top 20.  I'm not doing any outlandish predictions for my top 15, so expect me to place down 90M for GOTT to be safe (with 200M in our hearts  )

[chasmmi]

And now I get to rest for a couple of weeks before putting up the winter game thread.

 

 

 

 

[darkelf]

 

 

Congrats damien and everyone else. Chas and Jajang, terrific job scoring as always.

 

Came so close to the title defense but I guess four top 3 finishes in a row will have to do.

[narniadis]

Congrats Damien!! Well Earned! Chas bravo on a fantastic summer game!

[darkelf]

Oh fuck, i forgot the obligatory "blame Tele" for making me raise my Regurgitation prediction by $30M. Not sure how much I added to the WW or OW prediction but it may have been just enough.

Congrats Damien. Well played.

 

Didnt follow the game this year due to personal commitments but sounds like a lot of twisted points systems were put in place.

Why wait for GOTT when you can lowball Rogue one in mere weeks

[DAJK]

Congrats to everyone who placed in top 3!!!

 

And holy just realized this is my second 4th place finish in one of these games. I guess you guys better watch out, cause top 3 is only a matter of time
