chasmmi Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 If any of you played the Winter Game, you have possibly only just got out of therapy from this question. So therefore it is time to bring it back, bigger and deadlier And hey it's late July, it's a good time for mindfuckery. Here are 8 simple questions: 1. What will Lights Out gross Opening Weekend? 2. What will Sausage Party's Opening Day be? 3. How close to $100M will Bad Moms get by the end of the game? 4. What will Nine Lives' 3rd weekend percentage drop be? 5. What will be the difference between Suicide Squad and Batman Vs Superman's total gross by the end of the game? 6. What will Dory's Total be by the end of July? 7. What will Ben Hur's Midnights total be? 8. What will Jason Bourne's Opening Saturday gross be? All you need to do is predict a value for each question. Simples... Wait that's no good I promised Mindfuckery and thus Mindfuckery I must deliver!!! But how? Yes of course an insanely, over elaborate hateful scoring system! There are about 25 players who have contributed answers/predictions in some form during the Weeklies part of this game and thus it is possible for a players prediction to place anywhere from closest, to let's say a block of 25th and below. For each question you will score the following points based on how close to the actual total you finished: 1st - 2000 points (That is not a typo ) 2nd - 1000 points 3rd - 0 points 4th - minus 1000 points 5th - minus 2000 points 6th - minus 3000 points 7th - minus 4000 points 8th - minus 4000 points 9th - minus 6000 points 10th - minus 6000 points 11th - minus 8000 points 12th - minus 8000 points 13th - minus 10000 points 14th - minus 10000 points 15th - minus 10000 points 16th - minus 12000 points 17th - minus 12000 points 18th - minus 12000 points 19th - minus 15000 points 20th - minus 15000 points 21st - minus 15000 points 22nd - minus 18000 points 23rd - minus 18000 points 24th - minus 18000 points 25th or lower - minus 20000 points (If two people predict the exact same value, the winner will be decided based on who predicted earlier. If any players do not post a prediction they will all gather at the bottom end of the points table for every question.) ABSTAIN, ABSTAIN, ABSTAIN!!! I hear you all cry and I would never take away one's right to abstain. In fact you may choose to abstain from as many or as few questions as you wish all for the low low price of minus 5000 points per question (Therefore abstaining from all questions will result in a score of minus 40,000 ) Oh and one more little extra thing to sweeten the deal, anybody who ends the SOTM with a positive score, will receive a 50000 point bonus. Enjoy, deadline is Thursday at 11:59pm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyItsMoses Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 what the fuck is this shit? you're only getting points if you're the top 2, 3rd gets nothing, and everyone else is pretty much fucked. what the hell? you know what makes no sense, the 50,000 bonus for being the positive. why not have first place be 52k points, and second place be 51k points? it's essentially the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 50k is if your total is positive. Its nigh impossible and thus more of a joke than anything. It does make sense but be it 50k or 780m it doesn't really matter. And yeah fucked up is what this SOTM is. I'd recommend straight out abstain for this one. Edited July 19, 2016 by Infernus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an exercise in damage limitation You can either choose to take the medium hit of 40,000 points, or go for the questions and hope to soften that blow but also risk losing big at the same time. And as Infernus said, the 50k bonus is if you can manage to stay positive for the culmination of the 8 questions, not per question. Which as Infernus also said is essentially impossible as you would need to place top 3 for essentially every question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
