Dementeleus Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Yeah but rules are rules. In this case, a lot of people predicted 100M OW for the 3 day. So this sort of helps.But since when do two full days (over two full days!) combined mean a single OD? The statement rules just mean those grosses will be considerd part of the weekend, not that they'll suddenly be part of Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Wait, we're talking OD? Sorry I thought u meant OW.OD should be Thursday with Weds being Midnights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Herein lies the problem tele, and we have had this happen before.....people take the wording of a rule and use it to the letter of the law. I don't have time nor do I think of every situation when I make the rules to the game. If we were using an honor system, then everyone here knows that the question was taking midnights into consideration, not if it moves a day.

#ED Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Baumer, please confirm if I'm correct.OW for STID = Thurs - SunOD for STID = Thursday w/ Weds previews 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I understand the issue if there were suddenly a bunch of Thursday 8pm sneaks added to a traditional Friday opening. But in this case, it's cut and dry: STID's OD was Thursday. It's listed that way on BOM, on the press releases, everything. There's simply no justification to claim otherwise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 As I said, I don't have time to think of every scenario when making the questions. If a film happens to move to Thursday for its opening day,there is nothing I can do about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
