Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 18, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 18, 2013 I'm really tempted to go for that bonus. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 With Turbo getting an A cinemascore, that whole bonus pretty much hinges on whether Conjuring can defy typical horror WOM and get one too. Fuck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck. I went for it. Why not? I'm so far back that it's worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 18, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) I also just realized I have to answer my own SOTM by tomorrow as well. So, basically, my entire game may hinge on two decisions I make tonight. Edited July 18, 2013 by ShawnMR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I went for it. Why not? I'm so far back that it's worth it. I'm number nine! It could be the difference between top five and falling out of the top ten. This sucks. Damn you baumer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 I'm going tonight to see Conjuring, so I'll know whether or not it will be very well received. The thing about horror though is that it is so divisive that for any horror film to get an A is tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Exactly. Actually, I'm seeing a 1050 east coast showing of it, if I get home around 1, that's before the deadline, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmasterclay Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Thanks. I'm usually done way before that so I never check it. But this week is too tough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Yay I needed a good week cause I'm going to lose 50k for the Donovan question . That's why I went for the bonus this week there's no way I stand a chance if I don't risk everything from this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I chickened out on Bonus #3. I was going to answer NO for all 4, but I was really hoping Turbo would come in with an A-. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I answered bonus number 3, and I immediately regret this decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narniadis Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I am so happy to have abstained but looks like I already screwed up some normal questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 19, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 19, 2013 Glad I abstained, too. That question nearly got me but it was just a bit too devious. Granted, I'm feeling the same way about my SOTM right now too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Fortune favors the bold. The bold are usually the people that believe at this point they have nothing to lose and all to gain. The top 10 don't have balls to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
