Fake Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 I think you can also score these questions baumer: Question 6: Will any film make more than 50 million in CHINA this summer? Both Transformers 3 and DH2 did more than 60 in China last year. Yes Question 11: Will any film make more than 30 million in Russia this summer? Yes Question 14: Will The Avengers or The Dark Knight Returns have a better Saturday drop than The Hunger Games? Yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tower Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I think you can also score these questions baumer: Question 6: Will any film make more than 50 million in CHINA this summer?

Yes Question 14: Will The Avengers or The Dark Knight Returns have a better Saturday drop than The Hunger Games? Yes Question 14 you can score, the other two have not happened yet and while it's obvious it will happen, that was true before the game started so he may as well have scored them the moment the game started (in China films pass 50M all the time and Russia has sequels to two films that made over 40M when sequels always increase in Russia).

HeyItsMoses Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Baumer, I don't get how the numbers are not in order, because it clearly looks to be in descending order. As for displaying points, I think this format will be easier: Standings 1. 104,000 Pts. 1. Dav 2. 100,000 Pts. 1. Fake 2. Tyler Durden 3. 98,000 Pts. 1. ShawnMR 2. 24Lost 3. Chewy 4. Crusader 5. Alfred 4. 96,000 Pts. 1. Empirestrikesback 2. Movieman 3. Baumer 4. Dexter of Suburbia 5. 95,000 Pts. 1. Hallowed prince 6. 94,000 Pts. 1. Narniadis 7. 93,000 Pts. 1. Townzy 2. Infamous 3. Kayumanggi 4. Sims 5. Jake gittes 8. 89,000 Pts. 1. Jajang 9. 88,000 Pts. 1. BK007 10. 87,000 Pts. 1. Goffe 2. Acsc 11. 79,000 Pts. 1. Adim 12. 78,000 Pts. 1. KDS 13. 77,000 Pts. 1. Xenozodiac 2. Jamesford 14. 76,000 Pts. 1. Phillip 2. Cjohn 3. Dom Cobb 15. 74,000 Pts. 1. Tower 16. 72,000 Pts. 1. Cedar 2. The dark Zombie 17. 70,000 Pts. 1. AA 2. Vanilla 18. 65,000 Pts. 1. Michael G. Scott 19. 58,000 Pts. 1. JohnnY 2. Sixteen 3. Iceroll 20. 52,000 Pts. 1. Junkshop 21. 51,000 Pts. 1. Gizmo 22. 50,000 Pts. 1. Laguy 23. 46,000 Pts. 1. Lilmac 24. 42,000 Pts. 1. Spaghetti 25. 41,000 Pts. 1. Ariadne 26. 38,000 Pts. 1. Dar 27. 31,000 Pts. 1. Katyperry 28. 22,000 Pts. 1. Bed005 29. 13,000 Pts. 1. Firedeep 30. 12,000 Pts. 1. Gopher ^That way, we know who's in what place in the rankings. So, Dav is in 1st place, Fake and Tyler are in 2nd place, Shawn and the other 4 are in 3rd place, and so on and so forth. I know it seems like a bit more work, but I think it'll organize everything a lot better once you get the format down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I need to do better on weekly questions. That's what killed me last year and this first week. I generally do well on SOTM and preseason. Top 12 is another game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyItsMoses Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 How can you be tied for 34th?I don't get it. I mean, I'm in a 5 way tie for 7th place, not a 5 way tie for 15th place. I think this order makes more sense, plus it makes it less discouraging. Think about it AA, would you rather be told you're in 34th place or 17th?
