Feedback on new screencap game
« on: August 01, 2010, 06:13:15 PM »
I'm about to start a new screencap game and was wondering which way everyone would like me to do it.

Option 1 - One screencap per day, worth 1 point. No loss for an incorrect guess. First person to 20 wins.

Option 2 - Four screencaps every 48 hours. The four caps will be from a specific decade of film history. Each cap will be assessed a difficulty factor that will reward or penalize either correct or incorrect guesses.

A = 1 point
B = 2 points
C = 3 points
D = 4 points

8 rounds starting with the 1930's moving forward or starting with the 2000's and moving backward until the 1930's.
Whoever has accumulated the most points wins.

The higher the number, the harder the screencap.

Option 3 - The same as Option 2, but instead of having all four caps be from a specific decade, they will be chosen at random. Also, the number of rounds is increased to 10.

I'll be starting the game tomorrow, so vote quickly.

Since I won't have a chance in this one  :bag: my only preference is that the time frame gives the people on the other side of the world time to play.

I concur, so I think Option 2 would suit everyone?

I meant to say in the other thread, so I'll say it here instead: Well Bloody Done! The trivia one was a monster for you to handle, I think, and I'm glad it was played with the honesty deserved of your efforts.  :thumbup:

Thanks, I'll tell you the truth...with the Jeopardy game, King of the Hill and the Last Standing game in just a little over 3 months, I'm completely trivia'd out.

I didn't expect the last game to go so many rounds, and I was having a problem coming up with questions. So when it reached the 20th round, I decided to make them a little bit more difficult so that I could bring the game to a conclusion.

Thanks Antares, I appreciate there is time in the game for all to play, I only wish I had a chance to vote properly in this thread before it started.
