No this is IMDb ratings.

I'm just making it clear who still has the B - Movie to factor in since it has such a big swing on current standings. It's just pointing out that the people up top might not be as far ahead as it might seem.

B - Movie is subtracted from your score and you picked Fargo which has a high rating. Everyone else has been picking duds with very low ratings.

A month or so ago, I was looking at a list of the lowest-rated films on imdb. I think I remember one of them.

Return to the Blue Lagoon for B movie
Return to the Blue Lagoon - 5.2

B - Movie

Not certain that you remembered that quite right given that rating...

yeah, I was pretty surprised when you picked it.

It's what caused Gad to leave the game because a high rated movie got put into that slot and also Dizzy is now just listing movies that he heard of and ended up with Braveheart in that slot.

Once the game is said and done we'll look at the IMDb scores, my ratings and a few "What if" scores if some rules were slightly different/people didn't misunderstand rules.

****, I just wasted weeks because I read highest IMDb score wins and didn’t see the caveat that you subtract. I only had oldie and sci fi left so obviously wasn’t an accident.

I’ll just pick a b-movie the right way after final round so I can see if I woulda gotten first had I read the rules and I can win in spirit or sklansky bucks or whatever

The fact that I'm caught up now and I've extended the deadline for this round will give me a little chance to do some prep for the final round on Monday.

We can make it clear who's going for what category, what they need to do to get to certain positions. We can even do a couple of genre retrospectives perhaps.

Also for Monday's round I won't reveal categories at all until all answers are in. Might build a little suspense and we can have a few spoiler tags to see if people hit their desired category/score.

Anyway, that's all for now.

Keep submitting for Friday's round if you haven't already and the next round after that is Monday at 5pm

Apparently not. Maybe the list was based on something else, or maybe I'm just totally wrong.

Oh well. I don't think I'm a contender for either prize anyway.

Hah I missed this too (not that I was in contention anyway) I thought b-movie was just a free square. Should have actually read the rules
