 Re: Tomato Picker 7/21: i.hope ahead by one point!
I'm at 461 with loads of movies yet to get a score. Might be eyeing a finish north of 800pts.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/22: Pixels bombs
The Gift opens with 100. Groucho gave it 21.  I think it is safe to say that Groucho is now out of the running.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/22: Pixels bombs
Fuck, the Pixel bomb just effectively killed me, while I was hoping it would reinvigorate me instead. Btw. Groucho could you give the worst predication a special color as well? Seems it's me with Pixels, I feel that's kind of worth mentioning...

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/22: Pixels bombs
Groucho will have a score of 79pts for one film. He is surely the worst.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/22: Pixels bombs
My #2 ranking didn't last long...ugh. Looks like my prediction of i.hope's surge in second half and winning the game will be correct.

It looked like a typical horror film to me with a first time director. You guys should be cheering me on though. I was the best chance for keeping i.hope from winning three years in a row.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/23: chart now shows worst too
It's too messy now, in my opinion.
You could just show the top 10 biggest scores or something. There are too many bolded blue numbers and bolded blue red ones.

By the way everyone, I will be away for the weekend without internet access so don't expect an update until Sunday night.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/23: chart now shows worst too
Oh damn...this i.hope..a 77 point lead..jeezus.. Nailing Dark was the Night...wow And how did we all misfire on The Vatican Tapes?? i.hope wrote: chart now shows worst too Thanks Groucho! But I also feel it looks too messy now, what I actually meant was, only mark the single worst score in the game. The "Lanterne rouge" so to say. You could keep the look as you prefer though.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/23: chart now shows worst too
Yeah, I thought that The Vatican Tapes could be just another crappy supernatural horror, but then I thought it might also be one of those small ones that surprises. I should have gone with what was more likely, and not hoping for a freak occurrence to gain some much needed points over my opponents.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/23: chart now shows worst too
I have no idea what I was thinking either, I think I mixed up the premise with another movie, as I can't imagine why I would rate a horror this high.

You could keep the look as you prefer though. What does everyone else think? Picking the absolute worst prediction doesn't really provide much information game-wise except to allow everyone to point at the person who did it -- and even then, that's not that important because it's the overall score that matters.

 Re: Tomato Picker 7/23: chart now shows worst too
It gives the worst player someone to laugh at (unless the worst player ALSO has the worst score, in which case they're fucked).
