Topic: Movie Survival Game

This thing is gonna last forever.  Do we have to wait for a winner or can we run another one on a different theme at the same time ?

[lyonsden5]

Another one's OK with me.

We could also just pick the top 5 or 6 from this one and continue from there

[Touti]

How about an amendment to the rules.  Anything that says below 5 points for 24 hours gets disqualified.

Or whichever movie is on the bottom after each turn is eliminated regardless of points?

These two sound reasonable. You're right, Touti, otherwise there is no end in sight.

I scanned through the The Birds thread with grim fascination. How low can they get?

We could always switch to 3 points as well. That would speed things up a bit.

How about giving them one last chance and say that whenever a movie reached 3 or below, the next posters can kill it if they want.
