The ninth week of The 11nferno: The Duel - KJ vs. FG begins. This week is a triple elimination week, meaning over the next week three people will be eliminated. Will you be one of them?

This is your first week as new teams, three people from each side on each team. So good luck everyone.



The Real Teammates of Atlanta
jmovies - 85.51%
Christian - 78.26%
Frankenberry - 75.69%
Levy - 84.44%
Gopher - 84.40%
yoshue - 68.36%

Team Average - 79.44%

VS.

The Real Teammates of New Jersey
Maguire - 86.49%
Mr. Lobotomy - 68.35%*
SolC9 - 77.32%
Mr. Children - 76.29%
MikeQ. - 68.35%*
Eventine - 83.72%

Team Average - 76.75%
*Placeholder predictions.


Congratulations, The Real Teammates of Atlanta. You are safe.

New Jersey, you're dirty and no one likes you, but MikeQ. and Mr. Lobotomy are just a little dirtier and trashier than the rest of you. So dirty and trashy that I have decided there will be no need for immunity or voting in the first part of this week. Welcome to The Inferno, MikeQ. and Mr. Lobotomy. This is week nine. You should be predicting by this point, and if you don't, you deserve to be in The Inferno. I don't want to risk either of you surviving the vote and someone that did predict going in. Deal with it.

Congratulations to everyone else for surviving the first part of this triple elim. week. This is going to be a hectic, fast and hard week. You will need luck and skill on your side.



Films to Predict for 11/13 - 11/15 - Due Friday, November 13th, by 10pmEST
Please predict the weekend gross, unless specified otherwise, for the following films
2012 (Friday)
2012 (Saturday)

The Fourth Kind
The Box

Your predictions (all fifteen that are above!) are due on Friday the 13th, aka Nov. 13th, by 10pm EST. Do not be late, or you will discover what a human bloody tampon looks like.

Congrats Mr. Lobotomy! As usual, I suck with predicting dailies. Hehe. And terrific score, you would have had me no matter what.

Good luck everyone! Thanks Korrgan for another fantastic season. :)

Peace,
Mike

Post The 11nferno: The Duel - An interview with MikeQ.
Another previous winner of The Inferno series bites the dust. Let's give MikeQ. one last moment before we send him out of the game.


Why did you not predict? That is ultimately what caused your elimination; yourself. You may not have been voted into The Inferno and never would have been eliminated, if you had.
When I went to tackle the predictions on Friday, I only realized then (when I opened your private message) that there were 3 sets of predictions to do, and I was overwhelmed. It takes so long for me to do three sets of predictions, especially when they are PTAs. All the history research, calculations, etc. I didn't have the time at the moment to do them, so I said I would do them later that day when I had the time to sit down and do them all. Well, ultimately, I forgot to do them by the deadline, and by the time I had realized, I knew early Friday numbers were out, so there was no point predicting by that time. Clearly totally my fault and nobody else's, but that was my experience at least. I should have done better, and you're right, my fate may have been different if I had. Although I bet I would have been in The Inferno by vote anyway, haha.

Was there anyone you were close to that you hope does well in the remaining weeks?
I wasn't really close to anyone, but I hope the KJ folks rock the game and do well in the following weeks. Due to my terrible dailies prediction skills, I am out, and KJ is down one. Also, I suck at predicting period and have consistently dragged my KJ team down. So I feel bad, and hope they can recover now.

Would you like to see this person win?
I'd like to see someone who predicts well and strategies well to win. In other words, someone who really plays the game and loves doing so.

Anyone you'd love to see in The Inferno next and left in the desert of Nevada like you shortly will be?
Hmm... Mr. Lobotomy for being such a great predictor and knocking me out of the game. ;)

Any final words?
Thanks a lot Korrgan for another fantastic season. This game never gets old. Good luck everyone!


Thank you for playing the game, MikeQ. It's always great having you.

Welcome to the second part of the ninth week. Your scores in this part are based on your Saturday per-theater-average predictions. One person from the losing team will be eliminated. Good luck.


The Real Teammates of Atlanta
jmovies - 78.88%
Christian - 70.64%
Frankenberry - 68.07%
Levy - 69.79%
Gopher - 85.26%
yoshue - 63.85%

Team Average - 72.75%

VS.

The Real Teammates of New Jersey
Maguire - 79.80%
Mr. Lobotomy - 62.50%*
SolC9 - 78.07%
Mr. Children - 62.51%
Eventine - 82.12%

Team Average - 73.00%
*Placeholder predictions.


It was close, but you have lost, The Real Teammates of Atlanta. Congratulations, NJ. You're safe, but just for this part of the week.

Gopher, you receive immunity. And unlike all the previous weeks, you will be the only with immunity. It's time for all of you on The Real Teammates of Atlanta to vote for just one person. The two people with the most votes will be in The Inferno where one of them will be eliminated.

So how will voting work, since you guys are a split team? Three from KJ and three from FG on the same team. That's your prerogative. If you want to join FG or KJ, or already belong to the other forum, to scheme, have at it. I just want your vote. Good luck everyone.

Post The 11nferno: The Duel - KJ vs. FG (Week 9) - The Votes.
The votes are in. The Real Teammates of Atlanta have cast their votes, and two of them are about to head into The Inferno.


Spoiler: show
In a bit of a surprise, both people voted into The Inferno are on the KJ side of their team. Christian, you are safe. Levy and yoshue, welcome to The Inferno.



Tomorrow, The Inferno will take place and then the third and final part of this triple elimination week will commence.

ImageImage yoshue VS. Levy! ImageImage




Wednesday, which our two contestants in The Inferno predicted, was a U.S. holiday. Veteran's Day. Will its affect on the box office throw off Levy, who's shown a penchant for per-theater-average predictions this season, or will he remain cool and send yoshue out of the game like a little betch? It's time to find out.


yoshue (Wednesday)
Michael Jackson's This Is It - $460 (80.99%)
Saw VI - $115 (93.52%)
Where the Wild Things Are - $161 (48.35%)
The Box - $300 (91.46%)
The Men Who Stare at Goats - $578 (93.08%)

Final Score - 81.48%



Did you not calculate it as a holiday, yoshue? It's a bad score, to be frank. Good luck, bish. It's time to see if Levy has put you in your place..



Spoiler: show
Levy (Wednesday)
A Christmas Carol - $900 (61.90%)
The Men Who Stare at Goats - $575 (92.59%)
Couples Retreat - $315 (87.50%)
Michael Jackson's This Is It - $623 (90.32%)
The Fourth Kind - $450 (94.74%)

Final Score - 85.41%


Levy, you are safe by the skin of your teeth after that disastrous A Christmas Carol prediction. Congratulations. Sorry to say, yoshue, but you have been eliminated from The Inferno: The Duel - KJ vs. FG. Thanks so much for playing.



The final part of this week will be coming in mere moments. Good luck.

The final part of this triple elimination week begins. Good luck. You've nearly survived the entire week.

But one of you will not. Let's get to your scores.



The Real Teammates of Atlanta
jmovies - 69.15%
Christian - 66.65%
Frankenberry - 52.55%
Levy - 87.75%

Mr. Lobotomy - 52.54%*
SolC9 - 71.73%
Mr. Children - 67.28%
Eventine - 75.71%

Team Average - 70.02%
*Placeholder predictions.


Congratulations, The Real Teammates of Atlanta. You're all safe and have made the next stage of the game - the merge. After this next Inferno there will be no more teams. NJ, one of you will be eliminated in that Inferno, coming so close to the merge but failing to make it to the next stage. Who will that be?

It won't be Maguire, he has immunity for having the best score. Congratulations, Maguire. Mr. Lobotomy, you did not predict. Like in the first Inferno this week, you're automatically in The Inferno. So, The Real Teammates of New Jersey, I need you to vote for just one betch to join Mr. Lobotomy in The Inferno. Everyone is fair game but Maguire. So snap to it.

In a single season, it's a tie between matatonio and The Scottie, at five wins in The Inferno. Of all the seasons, I believe it's Shack, with something like twelve wins.

ImageImage Mr. Lobotomy VS. ????? ImageImage




Sorry for the delay. I had some issues and a busy weekend, but The Inferno must go on. Good luck Mr. Lobotomy and the mysterious person you are against.


Mr. Lobotomy (Thursday)
Michael Jackson's This Is It - $293 (69.78%)
A Christmas Carol - $584 (59.62%)
The Men Who Stare at Goats - $369 (90.18%)
The Fourth Kind - $274 (75.45%)
Precious: Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire - $11,016 (82.08%)

Final Score - 75.42%



So obviously the first Inferno of the week, which you scored amazingly in, was a fluke. Poor MikeQ.. So is this the end of the line for you, Mr. Lobotomy? Let's see how the person voted in against you did.



Spoiler: show
Eventine (Thursday)
Michael Jackson's This Is It - $240 (93.33%)
A Christmas Carol - $400 (96.15%)
The Men Who Stare at Goats - $360 (92.86%)
The Fourth Kind - $250 (86.36%)
Precious: Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire - $10,400 (88.67%)

Final Score - 91.48%


Congratulations, Eventine. You survive The Inferno and you have made the merge. Good luck.

Sorry to say, Mr. Lobotomy, but you have been eliminated from The Inferno: The Duel - KJ vs. FG. You can only blame yourself for not predicting the previous weekend. Thanks for playing.



The tenth week of The Inferno: The Duel - KJ vs. FG will be posted shortly.
