Topic: Film Geek screencap game

[Antares]

This game will feature 4 screencaps per round from a specific decade of Film history. I've decided to start with the 2K decade and to progress backwards until finishing with the 1930's. So in all, there will be 8 rounds total in the game. Whoever accumulates the most points after said 8 rounds will be the winner.

Each screencap will be different in point total as determined by its difficulty, designated by the following...

(A) screencap = 1 point
(B) screencap = 2 points
(C) screencap = 3 points
(D) screencap = 4 points

You do not have to submit answers for any screencap you do not know. If you submit an answer, and you are correct, you receive the point total associated with the letter in parentheses. Likewise, if you submit an incorrect answer, you will lose the point total associated.

Each round will last for 48 hours, giving you enough time to submit an answer.

All answers must be submitted to me by PM, no later than the time specified at the bottom of each round's screencaps.

When you submit an answer, you'll tell me the letter associated with the screencap you are answering along with your answer. Fairly simple, GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

[DJ Doena]

Yay, I have a head start!

[Dragonfire]

This does not look promising for me.  I must ponder some guesses.

[SailorRipley]

Yeaaaaaaaaah, baby!

I know them all, but since I will be gone really soon it's not really worth it...

Of course it isn't true, the knowing part (maybe the third one) isn't but the gone is (probably wednesday or thursday)

So do you need some extra money for your trip?

Can I phone a friend?

Don't forget, in this game, incorrect answers COST you points.

[Critter]

Oh whoops, I thought it was the same as the last screencap game, where you could just guess and then not lose points. Oh well, I just sent in my guesses, I will know for later rounds now not to send in wild guesses.

[Antares]

KinkyCyborg - 1 answer submitted (B) and is correct (+2) points

Critter - 4 answers submitted 2 correct (B), (C) (+5) points, 2 incorrect (A), (D) (-5) points, total (0) points

I remember...which is why I'm hesitant to make guesses.  I'm not recognizing anything at this point...and with screen caps, it is harder for me to come up with a guess.  Add in the penalty for wrong guesses and I'm thinking I won't be making many guesses this time.  Harder to get lucky.

Critter - 4 answers submitted 2 correct (B), (C) (+5) points, 2 incorrect (A), (D) (-5) points, total (0) points[/b][/size]

  Oh well, at least I'm not below zero.
