The Syndicate

it's when you add actors to the mix things are going to get interesting

btw thanks a lot for this game [mention]timmer[/mention], we're having tons of fun with this.

thanks B)

IMPORTANT: on Dec. 31st, the bottom most grossing players are eliminated.

how many players will be eliminated?

Box office earnings is for US totals only, not international.

oh poopers. I see.

which website do you use to record earnings?

--as we have never played this game, and after reading the rules, would you say it makes the most sense if the actors we draft aren't involved in the movies we've drafted for a higher percentage of points we can earn (beyond award season), right? and if we draft an actor, it would be useful if we draft an actor involved in more than 1 movie, as we have a higher percentage of lucking out in award season maybe.

Let's say I pick Fantastic Beasts and Eddie Redmayne wins an oscar for his performance. I drafted Fantastic Beasts but not Eddie. do I get actor points?

so whoever picks first the second and third and fourth have to pick completely different choices?

perhaps i didn't read the rules as well as i should have lol

We can't very well all have the same team now can we :P

yeah when we did a season of fantasy soccer and game prediction scores, for example, 2 people were allowed the same predictions (not entire week predictions, but some overlap was ok).

this changes things for me ;p

wait wait wait.

we're at 10 with [mention]Iron_Dwarf[/mention], he just didn't vote yes in the poll.

We should try to get a few more before the end of the month though!

A bit too busy at the moment to be playing this I'm afraid.

It starts May 1

I'll hunt for 3 more people to join.

I think you can be as involved in this as you like. You can pick stuff out to build a fantasy draft and stick with it all, or you can change as the year goes on.

I'd say it's technically low intensity and as much as you want to give it (if I understood the rules right).

timmer wrote: ↑Wed Mar 14, 2018 5:25 pm Ideally it needs about 10-12 players!

that's doable. let's see what we do. Can you add a poll for people to sign up so we can see #s of signups easier.

[mention]timmer[/mention] how many people should sign up minimum for this to work?

I don't know if I'm this much knowledgeable in cinema but I'm willing to give it a go

I'll be interested.

Maybe [mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention], [mention]Iron_Dwarf[/mention] and [mention]Ricochet[/mention] too?
