Official ASFN Movie Trivia Game Thread

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey all -

BIM and I are going to be trying out a movie game for you all to play. We will be posting pics from movies. We will be taking your answers via email. A new series of pics will be posted either each morning or every other morning - monday thru friday. We'll probably start out with every other morning to begin with to see how it runs.

What we envision is that starting in January, BIM and I will start keeping track of who gets the most right and then every 3 months - the person with the most points will win a DVD from BIM and myself. BIM and I are still working on the details of how we are going to do this - that's why we are starting it now - to work out any kinks we may run into along the way.

These will be the guildlines and rules so far:

1. Pics will be posted every Monday morning and Wednesday afternoon (by noon). On Wednesday's around noon, the pics on Monday will be moved to the answers section of the thread and new pics will be posted for the next round. On Friday's, the Monday answer pics will be deleted, and the Wednesday pics will be moved to the answer section around 5PM Arizona time.

2. The thread containing the pics will be locked - you can send your guesses to BIM or I via email to the following address: [email protected]

3. Guesses will be allowed up until the time the pics are changed out. If you get your guesses to us late - they will not be counted.

4. You can send in more than one guess for a series of pics - but only the last set of guesses will be considered.

5. If you send in answers for just some of the pics and then later send in answers for the remainder of the pics - can you do one of the following: (a) re-send all your answers (the first batch along with the second batch) or (b) let us know what number the answer(s) are for. This will keep us from going through a bunch of emails trying to piece together your answers and credit you with the correct total of right answers.

6. We will keep a running point count in this thread with who is in the lead so far.

7. The answers for the pics will not be given out until after that round of guessing is over.

8. In the case of a tie - we will have some sudden-death trivia questions to answer.

As we tweak and modify this, we will post the rule revisions here. The newer rules (modified, added, etc.) will be bolded so that the changes will be readily obvious.

I have an idea and I was wondering if it might be fun to see.

I would love for all ASFN'ers to make a list of their top 10 comedies, dramas, horror, sci-fi and then we could combine them into an all-time ASFN top 10 per category. We could assign a points to #1, #2, etc and then rank the movies in order of the ones that get the most points.

And then, finally, in addition, send in an all-time top 10 of your favorite movies, not counting genre. Then we could see what the top movie of ASFN would be.

Although it would be dependent upon getting a lot of participation.. and hopefully some of us having the same likes so that there could be a clear winner.

Yeah I dont know I'm just thinking out loud. I think it would be cool though.

Sounds cool. Almost like a March Madness tournament for movies.
