A census taker one tried to test me. I ate his Derby with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. | Week 35

Go home. Forget this Derby. I can recognize an obsession, no good will come of it.

 

The trick is to never stop looking, there's always another Derby.

Matches to watch:

Litio v TheXper (L5)

POTUS v The Fast and the Furiosa (L2)

2 very tight races here with barely any movies more than a million apart in estimates. Average of differences in guesses for Litio v TheXper is 0.4 while 0.68 is the average distance between POTUS & Furiosa's guesses. Not a lot of potentially determining films here aside from The Meg and MI6 for Litio v Xper, even the 1.7 difference for Crazy Rich Asians between POTUS & Furiosa is dulled by the percentage swing being lessened.

 

Will I continue my streak...of losing when playing against Top 3 players? Probably. My record's 1-6 or thereabouts including 3 losses against this weekend's opponent. Lots of divergences here, including my $9.8M on Operation Finale (highest of anybody's guess) and several 1M differences among the lower-gossing movies. Stand by the 9.8 but damn, really wish I'd gone with 5.5 for Happytime. This will probably be a lop-sided affair.

Another match-up that could be a blow-out is Empire v boxofficeth, with 7 movies with 1M+ difference in guesses (and 3 closer to 2M).

The highest average divergence, however, belongs to Deja23 v Keanu thanks to a likely-typo'd 1.5M guess on The Meg.

Other than that, the biggest difference in a movie's guess belongs to Tower v PanaMovie 6.34 v 9.34 for Operation Finale along with another gulf for Searching (3.41 v 6) that'll go long way to determine this match-up given 4 films are within 0.11 of each other.

 

Sunday Update:

Not too many close ones here, looks like only PanaMovie v Tower and possibly TalismanRing v Boxx93 could change with actuals.

I did pretty well on everything EXCEPT Searching which I both underestimated AND didn’t think would get previews. Be interesting to see if it can blow a big enough hole in my score to take me out all by itself.

Oh no! I meant to put $10.5m for The Meg...can’t believe I’m just noticing that now! 😩😩😩😭

Ask Andy to change it for you, he might do it. It's worth asking.

Seriously?

Boxx93 81.89
TalismanRing 81.89

Better not be... I don't think I have a tie-breaker defined.

 

If not I will flip a coin and new/holdover % will be the tiebreaker.

Hmm. I got a slightly different answer than POTUS, perhaps I'm doing it wrong?

 

Anyway, by my (possibly questionable) math, it wasn't literally a tie, it was just really, really close, depending on how many digits you go out to.

 

Boxx93: 81.9067

TalismanRing: 81.8733

My numbers differ a bit from Wrath's but also show Boxx93 in the lead, rounding to 2 decimals they up with AndyLL's 81.89-81.89 tie:

 

Boxx93: 81.893

TalismanRing: 81.886

 

We could stay true to the thread's title and see which player can find the other and consume their liver first err...we can make that plan B, I guess.
