Bippity, Boppity, Bomb! WB's BURT WONDERSTONE was incredibly limp, rolling out w/ just $3.7M in its debut.

Harmony Korine's SPRING BREAKERS scored a ridiculous $100k in just 3 theaters yesterday. Party on, Wayne.

SHIT, I'm such a fucking idiot. For the question about DMD, I managed to mistype my answer and write 7.285 million despite it having grossed 7.24 by this Wednesday..... I meant to write 9.285 million and that would've been spot on. :(:(:(

After an epic battle between tylerdurden and Alfred, we said goodbye to tyler. I said there might be a big surprise coming this week, but more on that later. Looks like that Spring Breakers PTA kinda killed you guys this week, huh? Let's get to the Olympiad first.

 

 

 

OW Olympiad: The Incredible Burt Wonderstone's OW 

 

Actual: 10.18

GOLD: 

Glassfairy- 9.39

5% bonus next week, immune this week

SILVER:

Fakhir- 11.0

1% bonus next week, immune this week

BRONZE:

You were asked to predict the following:

 

 

Part 1

 

The Call's Saturday gross minus its Friday gross- .664m

 

Spring Breakers' 3 day PTA- 87,667

 

Oz's Sunday drop FROM LAST SUNDAY- 47.1%

 

Dead Man Down's domestic cume through Sunday- 9.37

 

Part 2- 10 points each

 

1. Will Oz drop O/U 55%? UNDER

 

2. How many films will gross more than 10m this weekend? 3 

 

3. Will The Call open top 3? YES 

 

 

Part 3: Placements- 1% point each added to this week's score

 

1- Oz

3- Burt Wonderstone

5- Identity Thief

7- 21&Over

12- TLE2 

 

Team A

Spaghetti: 82.86

Simionski: 78.71

CEDAR: 59.51

Team Average: 73.69

 

Team B

ChD- 55.92

Punishment- 59.46

Glassfairy- 63.98

Team Average: 59.78 

 

Team C

Alfred: 74.28

Iceroll: 58.95

Michael G Scott: 44.81

Team Average: 59.35

 

Team D

riczhang: 76.19

CJohn: 28.74

DoctorWho: 77.91

Team Average: 60.95

 

Team E

4815162342: 75.79

Goffe: 28.73 (placeholder)

Fakhir: 56.47

Team Average: 53.66

 

Wait, what?! That's right, we are now broken up into 5 teams of 3! With the exception of Team E, all teams have one player from each "game". Also, if you want to be referred to as something other than TEAM 'LETTER', you'll need to let me know. I will be creating a new PM for each Team to correspond with me. Spaghetti, once again, you were the highest score of the week, and therefore get to pick three players for elimination this week. Points will be updated in a few minutes so you know where you guys sit. 

 

Strikes (3 and you're out!)

Fakhir (1)

Iceroll (1)

glassfairy (1)

Simionski (1)

Goffe (1)

Suspicious of the timing of the sudden team change-up. Convenient to happen after final numbers come in. Especially since we have no way of knowing how the teams were chosen or when they were chosen.

 

And yes I am saying this because I wound up with a no-show and ended up with the worst team score as a result.

I meant to clarify in my post. I chose teams without looking at any scores. picked one person from each team until I had you, goffe, and fakhir left. I said there was gonna be a change up Saturday, so it's not like I just made my decision today.

Fair enough, but the method of choosing how to pick a person from each team is opaque and still invites some skepticism. Was it totally random, was it trying to balance teams with prediction skills, etc.

 

I tried to make is as random as possible. If I noticed a team had three players who consistently do well, I tried to change it up without fully messing with the system. For example, I would not have put you, spaghetti, and say CEDAR on the same team, as you all scored above 90% last week. Also, I think I did pretty well, considering three teams were withing 1 point of each other.
