I'm so sorry everyone - I thought my free time was 0 a few months ago, but now it's somehow even below that. I will try to provide an update when I'm free next (and close out the summer game).

That's ridiculous. Though Jexi actually would have won (-2000) if not for the abysmal performance of Sleep.

Curious if anyone/KC would be willing to do a little prediction video for the Spring game? Similar to the one he did with his girlfriend.

Yes I will make that happen.

However, I don't think I have the time anymore to run next season's game, especially with how crappy I've run the last two. If anyone is interested, let me know!

It's just as well with the fall of boxofficemojo. I was already leaning heavily toward not playing anymore box office games because of that. Old mojo made them a lot of fun. At any rate it's been fun KC thank you.

They're only a little more challenging now. I use The Numbers to make predictions for Fantasy Movie League and that works well enough.

Ya it's looking unlikely that Skywalker will gross less than 500m and Frozen is looking to end up in high 400s but it looks like they may have pretty similar grosses

Post Re: KJ's Fall/Winter Box Office Contest 2019
So I’ll lose two points but gain two when Jumanji passes It and another two on question four when Maleficent becomes the right answer. Feeling decent about my chances but I know that if anyone gets top 5 exactly right then they’d go way down.
