Score per question is set in the questions each week. Parts 1 and 3 are open to all players, part 2 scores are given based on what is set but generally the person closest to the actual number 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 The scoring breakdown is all in Chas' post. You get a set amount of points for each question (1000, 2000, 5000 and so on). The points are highlighted in black at the end of the question. Then you get bonus points if you can place films in the position they finish in for the weekend. Then there are three individual bonuses that only three people qualify for. It might look confusing, but it's really not. Just read the questions once or twice....it's all there for you.

Thanks! I checked, none of them are within the three closest predictions for any question. Only a maximum of 9 players out of 30 odd will score points on part 2 each week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I'm surprised more people aren't passing on this week's QOTW. This week's question is going to be O/U 40M, and I'm not risking the potential to win a lot of points this early on, especially when the next 4-5 weeks are easy questions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
