Sam Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I will lose 7k points on question #17 but gain 15k points for #13 (if MU estimates hold) So 8k points gain overall, not too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted June 29, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted June 29, 2013 I don't even remember: how many points do we get for abstaining? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I don't even remember: how many points do we get for abstaining? Q13: correct 15k, incorrect -10k, abstain 3k I'm not really clear on how Q17 is scored: here's what B wrote This is a four part question. Again, you have choices. Answer any part of the question. Each answer you get correct you will receive 7000 points. Each answer you get wrong, you will lose 7000 points. If you go for all four parts of the question, you must get all four parts correct. If you get even one wrong after going for it all, you will lose 7,000 points. You can go for all of it, none of it and some of it. Choice is yours. 17) A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 150 million dollars this summer? Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 40 mill? C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 18 mill? Get any question right: 7000 Get any question wrong: -7000 Abstain from all four questions: 5000 Go for all four, and get all four correct not only will you get the 28,000, you get a bonus of 28,000. But you must go for all four to qualify for the bonus So does that mean if I went for all 4 and got anything wrong, I lose just 7,000 points? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattrek Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 (edited) I'm no longer in the game, (so I'm not biased) but I view prequels/sequels as the same thing. It's just another movie reusing all the characters from the original. Whether it takes place before or after the first movie doesn't really matter IMO.

Mattrek Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 You just try to find a way to screw us, huh?Haha with every question and every decision someone gets screwed over I'm just looking at it objectively. The GA knows that it's another film in the franchise, most don't know or don't care if it's a sequel or prequel. Only us box office nerds care about that type of thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
