Title: Film Geek screencap game
Post by: Antares on August 02, 2010, 09:04:41 PM
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!

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.

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.

On the other hand, he posted the screencaps on August 05, 2010, at 02:04:10 AM in our timezone, and said 48 hours since then, so...

Maybe there's a daylight saving time difference
Title: Re: Film Geek screencap game
Post by: Mustrum_Ridcully on August 07, 2010, 12:42:55 AM
In addition he's supposed to have EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) which would mean UTC-4. With no effect for us though, since we have daylight time too.

Your answers need to be submitted by the time and date listed at the bottom of the screencap post.

The time is always 6PM EST

I'm not home sometimes at 6PM, so if an answer comes in a few minutes late, I accept it.

It's mainly used to get people a deadline for submission. But I'll accept answers right up to the point I login.

OK, here's the bonus...If you answer all four screencaps correctly and tell me what all four screencaps have in common, you have a choice of having your score increased by 15 points, or having your score raised to the score Jon has, as of the end of Round 5. Which is 28 points.

Now here's the kicker, if Jon gets all four right, plus what they have in common, it negates the chance for anyone below him to earn the bonus.

Once again, I remind you, you must get ALL FOUR correct, plus the tell me the common denominator between the 4 caps to get the bonus.


REMEMBER you must submit your answer by PM. Anyone who posts answers in the game thread will be disqualified from the game.

You have 48 hours to submit an answer.

Deadline for Round 6 answer submissions will end at 6PM EST on Saturday.

C= The Producers
I almost guessed that, then got scared to loose the points. Why, oh why didn't I have a quick look on my disc :slaphead:


Round 6 seems like a tough one for me. Will have to investigate a little. It seems I should know (C), but only may be able to guess (A) and (B).

I thought B was Birdman of Alcatrez, but I wasn't confident enough to guess and possibly lose points.

For this bunch..I have no idea.

Round 8: 1930 - 1939
FINAL ROUND


All screencaps in this round are from famous scenes from definitive classic films. If you know your film history of the 1930's, this round should be the easiest.

(A) 1 point

(http://a.imageshack.us/img17/1188/41772965.jpg)

(B) 2 points

(http://a.imageshack.us/img204/5427/21868120.jpg)

(C) 3 points

(http://a.imageshack.us/img196/2418/87915108.jpg)

(D) 4 points

(http://a.imageshack.us/img534/9921/18831823.jpg)

To make this final round interesting, I'm adding a bonus screencap. If you get it right, every point you accumulate in this round will be doubled. If you get the bonus cap right, but have a minus point total for this round, your negative points are doubled too. It will make you think long and hard about whether or not you want the bonus incentive.  :devil:
