Name that Movie Contest: Part Duex

[Magoonie]

OK, so with Lukes permission I am starting this contest up again with a slightly different format. This is going to be more for fun so no set prizes although Luke generously said something about a donation in the winners name to charity. I'll let him work that out but for now let's just have some fun with it.

Anyway instead of one person posting all the pics/screens from movies we all will be posting them. Whomever is the last person to guess the correct movie will post the next pic and so on. To make it fair and to spread the contest out a bit, only one pic post per day. So if you already posted a movie pic that day and get one correct wait until the next day to post your pic. I'm not going to be super strict about this and have it be a set 24 hours though just wait until the next day. I hope this isn't too confusing for everybody and if you have any questions with PM me or ask them in this thread.

Also, no matter how sure you are you got it right, please wait until you get a "CORRECT" before posting the
next pic. Instead of us going for a set number of points I figured we could keep this contest going for one month and whomever has the most points at the end wins. Since today is the 23rd, the contest ends August 23rd.

For anybody not sure how to do a screen grab to post on here, here is Luke Limbrunner the expert to explain it to you.

Youtube/Hulu/and video content, press PrntScrn, paste into a ms paint folder, upload into a hosting site such as imageshack, and there you go.

From Jordy: Open a DVD or video file in the program VLC, Click Video>Snapshot to take still, it saves the still (png file) to Pictures folder, Open it (should open in Preview), Export as JPG medium quality, upload it at imageshack.us, 640 x 480 (for message boards), copy the link from embed image menu, paste it here.

So I'll keep score but I'll still be involved in the game. Since AP won the last game he will go first and whoever guesses his right will go after and so on and so on. Hope everybody has fun!

I think the person who gets it right should be able to opt out of doing the next one. If I'm on my iPhone and get it right I'm not going to be able to upload anything. Maybe after someone opts out from doing the next one the first person who has time can do one and get half a point or something?

[Wolfe]

Yeah. I'll be honest, if I get one right, I'm probably not going to upload another pic. If I did, I'd just go grab a picture of E.T. off Google images or something. I'm a lazy son of an onion. Honestly, I think we should keep Limbrunner's system of having one gatekeeper or not bother.

[ExpendablesFan]

I think it's probably better to not make one person have to be the only one uploading things daily but it should probably be more volunteer based. I think it would be cool to do it occasionally but not every time I get one right.

[sean]

I think it's probably better to not make one person have to be the only one uploading things daily

I think you both made a good point, but, to clarify what Magoonie said, based on my understanding from the other thread, I believe he actually meant one pic per day per person.  So if AP posts and I get it right, I can post one immediately, and then if you get that, you can post one immediately, but if AP gets that one, he'd have to wait until the next day.

[Amusing Pseudonym]

That was my understanding, yeah.

I'm willing to sit out Part Deux and just post pics as a non-contestant, but I wouldn't want the responsibility of being the only person doing it all day every day.

[Magoonie]

Whatever way you guys want to go with it is OK with me, I just thought this might be a fun way to do it as it keeps one person from having to post all the pics and gets everybody involved in trying to stump us all. But you're welcome to opt out after you get it correct and whoever wants to pick the ball up from there can post a pic. I'll do my best to be that person when somebody opts out but no promises. I just wanted to keep this game going in some form since we all had so much fun with it.

[Magoonie]

That was my understanding, yeah.

I'm willing to sit out Part Deux and just post pics as a non-contestant, but I wouldn't want the responsibility of being the only person doing it all day every day.

Yeah I'm willing to sit out on winning any points too but like you I really don't want the responsibility of doing ALL the pics. I am no Limbrunner! I just thought you guys would be into this more, that's all.
